Over the next few weeks we'll bring you some of the best moments from the Football's Greatest series so far. This episode focusses on the greatest managers. James Milner recalls the change at Liverpool from Brendan Rodgers to Jurgen Klopp, his first impressions of the German and their conversation about converting him into a full back. Gordon Strachan discusses Sir Alex Ferguson's impact at Aberdeen, his desire to win above all else, how the players were afraid to get injured because of the consequences, and what it was like to be the target of the manager's anger. German legend Michael Ballack talks about the charisma of Jose Mourinho and how he got his Chelsea players to follow him. Paul Merson compares the qualities of George Graham and Harry Redknapp, how Redknapp could be tougher than you think and the hilarious conversation that persuaded him to drop a division to go to Fratton Park.
