Porto - 2 La Liga titles & Champions' League - a great achievement by any standard, but Porto were already a great team
Chelsea - Back to back Premier League Titles, but it could be argued that he had inherited a great team from Ranieri, and merely put the icing on the cake. After that Chelsea began to slip.
Internazionale - Very successful here, but again inherited a great team from Mancini
Real Madrid - Not particular "special" here, with one of the top world teams.
Chelsea - Rather mixed, despite the great list of players, and Abramovich's billions/
My point is that to be "special", you need to have success with a club that isn't great already, like Sir Alex Ferguson's Aberdeen in the 1980s.
