Ranking the soccer world's 15 best-dressed managers

Being a high-profile manager in a sport like soccer means the spotlight's always on. Fashion and the game go hand-in-hand, and there are some managers who "get it" more than others. These are the top 15 managers in the world, ranked by sartorial swag.

[15] Jogi Low - Germany

Jogi Low is a pretty smartly dressed dude. He mostly keeps it simple with dressy monochrome, sometimes rocking a tie, but more often with a plain button-down and tailored suit. He might've moved up a couple slots on the list if he wasn't constantly getting caught picking his nose or rubbing at himself, but ... here we are. 



[14] Mauricio Pochettino - Tottenham Hotspur

Maurico Pochettino's one of those managers that can rock a suit or a full warm-up and still look comfortable and stylish either way. He keeps it classic, but he knows how to add the subtle details that really make a fit pop. 

[13] Bob Bradley - Swansea

Bob came up. He started out decidedly swagless in his younger MLS days, but his travels around the world have given him a distinctly continental dress sense.
 

[12] Jose Mourinho - Manchester United

Jose Mourinho was tough to place on this list. He clearly knows how to dress, but he often still chooses to step out looking like a grizzled veteran instead of a multimillionaire manager. Still, the fact that he can pull that look off, ironically just adds to the stilo.
 
 

[11] Zinedine Zidane - Real Madrid

Zizou's made the transition from player to coach look just about as smooth as it possibly could. You can say the same for his sideline attire, too. The only reason he's not higher on this list is because he can't seem to find pants that fit
.

[10] Jurgen Klopp

Nobody said you had to wear a suit on the sideline, and they definitely didn't tell Jurgen Klopp. He keeps it casual in a tracksuit, but it works.

[9] Claudio Cesare Prandelli - Valencia

It's a popular stereotype that Italians know how to put an outfit together, and Prandelli isn't going to be the one to break it. The new Valencia manager keeps it classy with perfectly tailored suits just about every time he steps out, and he never forgets the small details that truly make a good outfit a great one.
 

[8] Ben Olsen - DC United

Ben Olsen knows how to put it all together. His suits are tailored, but not too tight as to be overly trendy. He's a fan of the three-piece, and he pays attention to the details too. Get 'em, Ben.

[7] Arsene Wenger - Arsenal

Arsene Wenger may not know how to operate a zipper, but he damn sure knows how to get a fit off. He's been doing it for over two decades now, and you'll still rarely see him brick a fit.

[6] Antonio Conte - Chelsea

Aother stylish Italian, Antonio Conte also knows how to make the seamless transition from training pitch to the awards gala. He can dress it up with a flawless three-piece suit, or keep it clean in warmups with some spotless adidas Boosts.
 

[5] Carlo Ancelotti - Bayern Munich

What can you say about Carletto? His fantastic managerial ability's only matched by his flawless dress sense. No bricked fits over here.
 



[4] Luis Enrique - Barcelona
Luis Enrique and Pep Guardiola grew up in the same footballing school, and they clearly grew up in the same sartorial one as well. Button downs, slim fit sweaters, tailored suits? Check. No bricked fits? You know what it is.
 

[3] Diego Simeone - Atletico Madrid

The Man In Black. Simeone is consistent, and his outfits are consistently fire. Not everyone can pull off the full monochrome look, but Simeone does it better than anyone.

[2] Pep Guardiola - Barcelona

The style gawd himself, Pep's been sitting atop the sartorial pile for a long time. From impeccably tailored three-piece suits to crisp button-downs with a sweater, or just plain well-paired shirt/slacks combos, Pep knows what he's doing. Still, he just misses out on the top spot.

[1] Vincenzo Montella - AC Milan

Pep Guardiola would be No. 1, if it weren't for Vincenzo Montella storming in with a vengeance. He does everything Pep does, but with a little bit more flavor and sprezzatura. Every outfit he rocks looks like it was handmade for him by the top Milanese tailors, and he never ever gets the details wrong.

Bailly's prolonged absence underlines Man United's injury woes this season

Image
Eric Bailly's ankle injury, which could sideline him for three months, is a major problem for Jose Mourinho and Manchester United. After being without his best player, Paul Pogba, for two months, this long-term injury to another key member of the squad is a huge blow. The manager loves to find an excuse for his failings but it would be unfair not to acknowledge that United have been unfortunate when it's come to injuries this season. Rivals Manchester City have had their most important players, Kevin De Bruyne and David Silva, fit for every Premier League game this season, while Pogba has missed morethan half United's league matches. Mourinho's back line has been hit with injuries throughout the course of the season too, with Chris Smalling and Phil Jones, the latter in particular, again proving they're made out of glass. But the repeated injuries to Bailly have been the most damaging. The Ivorian may have an unconventional approach to defending, o...

IT IS A TRACT IT SHOULD NOT BE BRIDGDED:          It is dawn again in the small resourceful village in Ikeduru Local Government area, poor Mrs. Ekemma who has been a victim of spite and neglect in her very large family comprising three other wives, gives birth to her fifth daughter in a Local home in their village. The tears of this girl child that should stimulate joy in her mother rather gave birth to more tears, as her other four daughters has faced the discrimination and inhumanity culture metes out to the girl child: No formal education, early marriage, teenage pregnancy etc. But the most grueling of all is what they called 'Ibi nwaanyi ugwu' (female circumcision) fondly called 'Female Genital Tract Mutilation..        This practiced has long been hinged on mythical and cultural beliefs of various tropical countries such as: It aids to reduce/prevent fornication or promiscuity in the girl child. Female genital mutilation entails cut...
