**** the Messi comparisons for one night, Ronaldo is just an incredible player.
That's a tough argument. Mourinho, Pep have generally coached teams stacked with talent and have been given huge transfer budgets too. To be honest, I haven't really analyzed Zidane's coaching much, but being stacked doesn't guarantee the ultimate prizes with teams like Barca around.Was just about to post this. Not a top manager for me.

You do make a good point. I didn't like what Mourinho did with Madrid though. They now look like they're enjoying the game more without the "we against them" thing that he did. Very big teams with big stars aren't always easy to manage, lots of egos and reputations and pressure. I still think managers that can successfully manage all that deserve their props.Pep has to prove himself in City.Barca and Bayern were easy jobs for him.Still think that Mourinho done better jobs with his former clubs.Porto and Inter was something special.
What happened is Real Madrid press up high and Juve start making mistakes they never make like giving the ball away many timesI'd be interested in a tactical analysis of that game. WTF happened to Juve in the 2nd 1/2 - it was as one sided a game from the 45th minute on as I've seen in ages.
Congrats to Real Madrid, they deserved it on the day. Hate to be a Juve fan about now. The show pony sure knows how to score on the big stage - just keeps making record after record.

I know Madrid were much more aggressive and won plenty of the ball in the 2nd 1/2 - but was that all it was. Juve were nowhere to be seen in the 2nd 1/2.
Real Madrid: 3 CL trophies in 4 years.
Meanwhile at Arsenal, most of us are gassed because of 3 FA Cups in 4 years.
Unbelievable levels.
