Tony Pulis led Crystal Palace from the bottom of the Premier League table in November 2013 to a final position of 11th last season which he feels is his best achievement as a manager.
The Eagles picked up 38 points from 26 games under the control of former Stoke City boss Pulis in a season that he ranks as his finest.
"Stoke will always sit with me as the main job because of the time I spent there," said Pulis. "As a short-term job that I found myself in at Palace - I don't think I will ever better what went on there.
"I sat in the stands and watched them at Hull when they had, I think, four points from 11 games. It was always going to be a massive task there. Great credit to not just the players, but the support also."
Pulis was awarded the Premier League Manager of the Season for 2013/14 for his outstanding efforts in south London.
