Personalities in British football management

[kancutlawns]

Jose Mourinho - wily, moody genius of the game who has experienced success in every club he's managed and builds up solidity in defence as the cornerstone of his strategy
Arry Redknapp - cheeky chappy persona who gets the best out of his players and uses patter to win favour amongst his detractors. Generally highly respected and liked across the game
Sam Allardyce - tough talking elderly statesman with great integrity, particularly in his brief tenure as England manager and will almost guarantee Premier League survival
David Moyes - highly likeable, effervescent and upbeat manager who has an open attacking mentality and doesn't try to build up the hopes of the supporters

[kancutlawns]

Bob Bradley - half headed, American simpleton coming from a second rate football nation into the best league in the world and depriving the supremely talented Ryan Giggs from becoming manager

[Basualdo]

Alan Pardew - Famously abstemious, spurning all sorts of temptation to concentrate on his management and his devotion to his partner.

Pep Guardiola - Over-rated Dago chancer.

[Basualdo]

Brendan Rodgers - Unassuming and modest, this likable and popular man manager spurns the bright lights and glitz of modern football and is sometimes known as 'The Recluse'.

Phil Brown - Along with Brendan Rodgers is known for his modest demeanour and dislike of ostentation. Never one to hog the limelight ,this talented coach will often be found in his office working at the welfare of his players under his care as much as he will slogging his guts out on the playing field taking training in person.

Glenn Hoddle- Tactically the best ever manager, knows so much about football, still the best in training, should be in every job.

Bring back Barry Fry

Claudio Ranieri - likeable with an elderly uncle persona who did OK guiding Leicester to the Premier League when all the top teams had an off season. Rubbish the following season when the pressure's on and he hasn't got a clue. Copyright of Adrian Durham.

[JW90]

Tony Pulis- Will go in there and do a job.
Mark Hughes- Will go in there and ruin it for Harry.
Tim Sherwood- Will go in there and be harshly sacked for losing 8 games in a row.

In fairness to Durham, they did a show earlier this year asking if Leicester could go from PL winners to relegation the following season. Durham gave his reasons while everyone was laughing at the idea. To quote Monkhouse "Well, they're not laughing now"

Mourinho - The special (needs) one.

[JW90]

Walter Mazarri- Who?
Claude Puel- Who?
Aitor Karanka- Who?

That's Holly Holloway

BIG SAM - corrupt as fuck, cup of coffee pint o wine backhanders 24-7, snout in the trough sucking the teat dry, huge necked sweaty cheap gold lard arse mouthy fat bastard who got sacked from his dream job instantly for being an absolute 20 stone shithouse sack of shit.

Now manages palace.

That's not the TS angle on him though. Can you see a trend developing from the individuals and attributes associated with them?

[kancutlawns]

Neil Warnock - a softly spoken, cerebral, wise and tactical genius who leads by example and adopts a non confrontational management style and a focus on "total football." Everyone he has managed comments that he's a genuinely friendly and genial host who is a role model to the wider society

OIC. An angle fred. Couldn't tell. Was too busy typing in a blind rage. Be clearer going forward would you? TIA

Thank you my friend.

The rotter!!

[deisegirl]

Jurgen Klopp - impossible to dislike, cheeky chappy with a twinkle in his eye. Never afraid to put an arm around his players, particularly when it comes to the Hokey Cokey.

Keeps Merseyside opticians in business because he cares about EVERYTHING surrounding the footballchlub

A Good German

[kevin04]

Eck McLeish - a hugely interesting young manager with a full-head of wonderful red hair. Very animated as both a pundit and on the touch line, known for his personality. Would be managing a top four club, if one would just give him a chance.

[kancutlawns]

Gary Neville - huge potential as a world class manager who cut his teeth in Spain and with the England national team. Taking a sabbatical back on Sky Sport giving insightful punditry with his dexterous use of the buttons and not afraid to "mix it." Still, a very diplomatic and non confrontational pundit who indicates no such long term rancour with Liverpool Football Club and it's staff.

Steve McClaren - scum of the earth, single-handedly denying millions of brave hEngland fans the chance to cheer on their heroes at the hEuros. Used an umbrella once. Spoke in a ridiculous accent once. To be despised until the end of time.

[kancutlawns]

Arsene Wenger - for the love of God, leave!!

And the hairdo almost as if perversely he wanted to be ridiculed
