With Harry Redknapp taking the QPR job and announcing his intentions of keeping them in the Premier League (despite them only securing four points from their opening 13 games) it has got me thinking about the most influential managerial appointments the Premier League has ever seen.

The criteria I used to select my most influential ten were their ability to save their club from relegation, the stability they have given their club during their time and/or the success they have achieved during their tenure.
