I reckon Ancelotti has a low centre of gravity and ONE big punch in him. If that lands, he’s decent. If not, he’s in trouble.

I would possibly have Potter lower. He looks like he’d do anything not to get in a fight to me.

I think Farke would run off to smoke a spliff at the first sign of trouble. He wouldn't get involved definitely bottom half

I think Potter should be top. He’d analyse them and talk them out of it, while setting them on a worthwhile course for the rest of their lives.

Mourinho’s position is completely variable based on whether underhanded tactics can be employed.

If concealed weapons/traps can be used then he’s comfortably number 1.

I'd put Wilder top. I think he's a genuine mentalist.

Potter, bottom three for me. It's a fight, not a visit from Social Services.

I think Potter is probably harder than he looks given the way he off-hired the tenetious little Romanian pikey and his nut-job Froggy mate so quickly, or else he just set his wee Jocko bulldog on them, and he is just another Harry Grout.

Pearson is up there with the Kray Twins, deservedly top and could only have been challenged if Duncan Ferguson had kept his job at Everton. I'd pay good money to watch a fight between those two

OGS bottom, had to laugh

Potter would be nailed on for relegation imo though

."....Pearson is up there with the Kray Twins, deservedly top and could only have been challenged if Duncan Ferguson....."

Forgot about Ferguson being still on their books. That screwball sort of lifts Ancellotti into 'Capo' territory.

Moyes is too low. For crying out loud, he's a Glaswegian - he's top 3

But Pearson is deffo top

Eddie Howe at EIGHT?

**** off

This. Smug Eddie is definitely the kid who got beaten up at school every day for sneakily grassing on the bike shed smokers.

I'd put Wilder top. I think he's a genuine mentalist.

Potter, bottom three for me. It's a fight, not a visit from Social Services.

And this too. Wilder is nuts. And he's from SHEFFIELD. Pearson second, Dyche third. And, yep, Potter in the bottom three unless he was allowed the use of a scar, wand and owl.

Think Moyes might be a bit low. He's a Weegie and has a bit of a wild stare about him...............and agree re Wilder. Hard as nails I reckon.
Smug would get battered by almost all of them.
Klopp is a bit of a lunatic
Bruce is too fat to fight
OGS below Woy is hilarious

I can see Ancellotti in a Godfather type role, not getting his own hands dirty just sending in his enforcer to keep everyone afraid.

To be fair, the Arsenal manager ought to be up there. When he was at Everton, 'Our Tetta' was up there along with 'Yobo', and Arsenal's 'Robin Vans and Purses' as the three most villainous scouse players in the PL.
