Before I go any further, I stress that this is just a light hearted issue and not something I feel particularly strongly about!
I saw a photo of Fulham's manager Scott Parker at a game recently, looking very smart in a suit and tie - presumably club issued - and I just wondered why standards have slipped in the PL so much over the years.
Pep ranges from scruffy jeans to woolie cardigans, Jose looks smart, but equally casual. Other managers might perhaps wear a blazer or tracksuit etc.
Wouldn't it be good if standards were raised and managers were asked to revert back to club suits and ties rather than the current free for all?
Managers' Dress Sense

I remember hearing someone say that Tony Pulis always looks like he should have a dog with him on the sidelines. The image had me laughing for a few minutes.

That Southampton manager & Klopp sometimes look like they’ve just spent their Christmas JD Vouchers

Some of Klopp’s touchline clobber is horrendous. I honestly would bet on him wearing Liverpool branded socks and underwear.
I quite rate pep’s casual looks. Not everyday you have to be in a suit and tie or tracksuit in the middle of summer.
Simeone has defo nailed down the mafia boss look
A lot of managers you can tell how motivated they are by what they’re wearing. I’m pretty sure both Conte and Mourinho have a correlation that when they’re playing well they wear suits and if their team is doing chit or they’re having a strop against the board it’s back to tracksuits

Honestly if I was a manager I’d turn up suited and booted, dripped out. Armani blazer, Gucci belt, Louboutin shoes, big fat watch. And some sunglasses. Dunno why more of these managers don’t wear some sunglasses to complete the look. We all know you’re on 100k/week, fackin use it

Marcelo Bielsa could manage in a mankini for all I care. They're there to win games, not dress to impress.

Ron Atkinson always dripped gold, necklaces, bracelets, watches and probably a Prince Albert too.

There was one manager in the EPL a few years ago wearing football boots ffs. Why!?
He wasn’t a player manager either.
