A list of candidates for the Premier League’s best coaches of the year: Who will win the honor of the five famous coaches?

As the final round of the Premier League season approaches, the Best Coach of the Year award is about to be announced. Thomas Frank, Nuno Espiritu Santo, Vittor Pereira, Eddie Howe and Arne Slott are each competitive, so let's analyze their coaching highlights in depth.

Arne Slott: Seamless championship coach

This Dutch coach will play the Premier League debut season lightly. After Klopp said goodbye to Anfield, Slott used his original team to win the championship in advance, showing extraordinary tactical attainments. The Reds not only maintained a smooth pass (85 goals in the league), but also continued the steel-like defensive tradition (the third-most conceded in the league). The ball control system it created recreates Liverpool's dominance in the 1970s and 1980s, and its impressive record of 25 wins, 8 draws and 4 losses makes them the biggest favorite to defend their title next season.

Nuno Espiritu Santo: The Revivor of the Forest Legion

From the edge of relegation to the pointing of the Champions League, the Portuguese coach created a miracle in the Nottingham Forest. When he took over, the team was deeply trapped in the relegation zone (No. 17 last season), and after reorganization in the summer window, the team achieved transformation. This season not only ended Liverpool's unbeaten home, but also achieved its first triumphal Old Trafford since 1994. The record of 19 wins, 8 draws and 10 losses brought +13 goals, and the three-time win of the best coach of the month confirmed his coaching skills. The final round of victory over Chelsea is expected to hit a Champions League seat, which will be the greatest counterattack of the Forests in the 21st century.

Eddie Howe: The master of tactics who breaks the spell

Newcastle completes double redemption this season: ending the 70-year trophy drought (League Cup Liverpool), and locks in the Champions League qualification (standard third). After overcoming the injury wave of multi-line combat last season, the Magpies showed terrifying attack firepower (68 goals). The offensive football created by Haoshuai is pleasing to the eye. Behind the 20 wins, 6 draws and 11 losses is the double upgrade of the tactical system and the team's temperament. Although he has strong financial resources, being able to transform paper strength into competitive achievements is a reflection of his coaching art.

Thomas Frank: After the magician who turned stones into gold lost the number one scorer Ivan Tony, Brentford not only did not sink, but was expected to refresh the team's best ranking in the Premier League in history (single 8th). Frank activated the new front line composed of Mbemo (16 goals) and Visa (12 goals), leading the team to score 65 goals (second only to the traditional powerhouse). Behind the record of 16 wins, 7 draws and 14 losses is the ultimate polishing of the 442 system by the Danish coach. Using limited resources to build a team with the sixth most firepower in the Premier League, this report card is enough to be recorded in the club's history.

Vitol Pereira: The creator of the relegation miracle

Although Wolves were finally ranked in the middle (12th place), the team was deeply trapped in the relegation zone when the Portuguese coach took office (19th place when he took over) and showed his desperation. He won 10 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in 18 games, increasing his average score from 0.8 points to 1.78 points. Pereira completed the impossible task in three months. 51 goals set a Premier League record in the team's history, activate the operations of attackers such as Cunya (14 goals and 9 assists), allowing this team that was once on the verge of the Championship to regain its new life.
