VOTE: Manager under the most pressure

To achieve this season?

Pep -
Came to City after unbelievable levels of success at Barcelona and Munich but failed to win anything in his first season. He’s spent more than anyone other team since his arrival so you wonder if he’ll be given another season if he fails to win anything this year either.

Mourinho -
The second season man. This guys second season record is quite incredible. He’s won the league in his second season with Porto, Chelsea, Inter, Madrid and then Chelsea again. If Mourinho fails to secure the league his reputation as a top tier manager could be thrown into doubt. 2 Titles since he left Inter Milan in 2010, compared to the 6 before (and 2 Champions Leagues) wouldn’t make good reading.

Conte -
Conte’s now has to face the critics who said it’s a different task taking on both the League and Champions League – mo’ fixtures mo’ problems. With a trigger happy Russian never too far away, the pressure to succeed is always on. Both Ancelotti and Mourinho were sacked after title winning seasons so don’t think Conte will get a free pass this season.

Klopp -
Liverpool have given Klopp a good amount of time for him to imprint his philosophy but another trophy-less season might spell time out as you could argue there’s not been any significant improvement since he arrived.

Wenger -
The Wenger out camp has grown in size these last couple of seasons. Despite an FA Cup win last season they finished outside the top 4 in a time fans were hoping they’d be competing for the league. You’d think a similar season to last wouldn’t be enough for Wenger.
