Excerpt: Manuel Jose de Jesus Silva, ComM, known simply as Manuel Jose (Portuguese pronunciation: born 9 April 1946 in Vila Real de Santo Antonio), is a Portuguese football manager, who currently manages Persepolis F.C. in Iran Pro League. Some of the teams he has coached include Vitoria de Guimaraes, Sporting CP, Sporting de Braga, Boavista, Benfica, Al-Ahly, Belenenses, Angola, amongst others, being the coach with most games in the Primeira Liga. He is regarded as one of the most successful club coaches in CAF competitions, having won the main African club tournament, the CAF Champions League, a record of four times and guiding his team to four consecutive CAF Champions League finals between 2005 and 2008, winning three of those finals. He has also won the CAF Super Cup in 2002, 2006, 2007 and 2009 and was the first manager to take an African team to the medal positions in the FIFA Club World Cup in 2006. Manuel Jose first started to manage S.C. Espinho in 1978, where he gain promotion to the 1979-80 Primeira Liga. His first notorious management spell was at Vitoria de Guimaraes, which he coached during 1982 and 1983, guiding them to their first UEFA Cup after a 4th place finish. The following season he moved to Portimonense and in his second season there, he took the team to their highest Primeira Liga place, 5th, qualifying them to the UEFA Cup. Moving to Sporting CP in 1985, he was sacked in his second season, after a 6-game winless spree. He is credited for discovering Luis Figo while he was working with Sporting CP, a fact that he denies. Some of his most famous matches in his Sporting CP career were a 7-1 win over arch rivals Benfica, the widest win in the Derby de Lisboa, and a 9-0 away win against I rottabandalag Akraness, from Iceland, in the 1986-87 UEFA Cup, a record that still remains as their biggest away win in UEFA competitions. He moved to Sporting de Braga where he couldn't manage to find the success he had found in his former teams. Again at Sporting CP
