Well, Crouch did opt to switch Pep Guardiola from second to first in his list of the greatest Premier League managers of all time. The revered Catalan coach has just achieved the incredible feat of winning four consecutive Premier League titles - something Sir Alex Ferguson never quite achieved. Pep is the greatest in Crouchy's eyes, although the former England international expressed his dilemma.
Manchester United won the competition a staggering 13 times under their iconic Scottish figurehead. It's unlikely anyone will ever match this tally and Crouch did acknowledge how tight it was between Ferguson and Guardiola as he played through the era in which the former was by far the best manager in the division.
Since its inception in 1992, the Premier League has had many wonderful bosses who have brought new and innovative ideas to the beautiful game. Only 11 men have won the division as manager, and the top 10 of the list given to Crouch included only coaches who have lifted the iconic trophy.
