Thierry Henry dropped Aberdeen into the conversation with Jamie Carragher as the Sky Sports pundits poured over the candidates to name the greatest manager ever.

No conversation about the best coaches of all-time is ever complete without the great Sir Alex Ferguson who won 49 trophies during his near-40 year career - making him the most successful in British football history.

He's best known worldwide for his unrepeatable tenure as Manchester United manager that yielded 13 league titles, but it was the Dons who put him on the map.

The 1983 European Cup Winners' Cup success is heralded as one of the greatest achievement ever by a manager on British soil and for Ferguson, who also won three league titles with the Dons, it was his first taste of continental glory.

On a feature on Sky Sports' social media channels, Henry put Carragher through his paces to name the best manager of all time.

Carragher paused and said: "I'm going to with Sir Alex Ferguson over Pep, because..." then Henry cut in: "He did it with Aberdeen."

Carragher agreed and went on: "Yeah

So I'm going to go with Sir Alex Ferguson."
