A group of Brazilian number crunchers from business consulting company Pluri Consultoria have compiled a list of football's best paid managers, published this week.

As you can see, above, there no more than four managers in world football who get a fatter wad of cash each year than Arsenal's Arsene Wenger.

Click the arrow on Wenger's image to scroll through the top five and find out which boss is laughing all the way to the bank! And, if you're wondering why England boss Roy Hodgson's name isn't on this list it's because he's only 30th, with an annual salary of £2.02m.

There are four more Premier League managers in the top 30, who rank as follows:
10th: Roberto Mancini, Man City - £4.78m (5.9m)
13th: Andre Villas-Boas, Spurs - £3.64m (4.5m)
14th: Harry Redknapp, QPR - £3.23m (4m)
16th: David Moyes, Everton - £2.91m (3.6m)

What do you make of the amount shelled out on these six Premier League managers? Do you they all deserve it? Let us know how you feel by leaving a comment below...
