I would say Mourinho is the best manager in the world because he's tested himself in the top 3 leagues and succeeded. He took Chelsea to the next level to win the Premiership. He turned Inter around to win Serie A consecutive times and win the Champions League and he's currently got Real Madrid to win the Primera Liga, a near impossible task with Barcelona being probably the greatest ever club team in history. You could argue Del Bosque has done it internationally, but as Spain manager he has the players. Fergie has rebuilt Man Utd time and time again to be fair to him and he continues to keep them there as the top Premiership team. But I have to go with Mourinho as the best manager in the world with his track record, he goes to different clubs for different challenges, succeeds and then moves on. Mourinho just needs to succeed in the Bundesliga now, the only top class league left to conquor, then he will have done it all at club level. If Mourinho ever manages Portugal and gets them to win a major tournament, he might well go down as the greatest manager in history.

It's got to be Fergie, with Del Bosque right behind him. If Spain win the World Cup now the i'll change my mind

Personally I don't think Fergie or Del Bosque could have gone to Chelsea, Inter and Real Madrid and succeeded like Mourinho has. Mourinho spent at Chelsea to take them to the next level, but I don't think he spent considerably more than the majority of other rival clubs with Inter and Real Madrid. In fact, he made Inter a huge profit with the sale of Ibrahimovic to Barcelona plus Eto'o in exchange. I also don't remember Mourinho buying many players for Real Madrid apart from Carvalho, Khedira, Di Maria and Ozil, although there's probably a few more signings he's made that I can't think of right now, perhaps he signed Pepe as well? However, the big money transfers such as the likes of Ronaldo, Kaka etc were already there before Mourinho took charge, so I can argue that Mourinho has spent less than previous Real Madrid managers and to get them winning the league against Barcelona is something only Mourinho could do. I honestly don't think Fergie or Del Bosque could have managed to beat what many consider the best club side in history over the course of a season.
