Ranking the 12 Worst-Dressed Managers in World Football

In general, football managers have great fashion sense.

Pep Guardiola. Arsene Wenger. Jose Mourinho. Heck, even Andre Villas-Boas before he got fired.

They all know (or knew, in the case of AVB) how to dress themselves for the part.

These 12 guys don't (or didn't). These 12 guys are the worst-dressed managers in world football.

Brace yourself.

12. Jurgen Klinsmann

Teams: United States, Bayern Munich, Germany

Status: Active with USA

What happened, Klinsi? Is this the SoCal skater look?

You were so suave when you coached Germany to the World Cup semifinals in 2006.

Want to take Team USA to uncharted territory? Dress for success, sir.

11. Bob Bradley

Teams: Egypt, USA, USA U-23, Chivas USA, MetroStars, Chicago Fire, Princeton University, Ohio University

Status: Active with Egypt

Oh, right. This is what happened. Klinsi inherited the bad dressing gene as coach of the US.

Yikes.

Anyway, right now you've got to ask yourself one question. "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?

10. Martin O'Neill

Teams: Sunderland, Aston Villa, Celtic, Leicester City, Norwich City, Wycombe Wanderers, Shepshed Charterhouse, Grantham Town

Status: Active with Sunderland

Martin O'Neill has been managing and spreading his awful Rivers Cuomo-tribute, geek-chic look for decades. Want to know why he's never managed a "big" club?

Wonder no more.

9. Tony Pulis

Teams: Stoke City, Plymouth Argyle, Stoke City (again), Portsmouth, Bristol City, Gillingham, Bournemouth

Status: Active with Stoke City

Make up your mind, Tony.

Baseball cap? Strike one.

Track suit? Strike two.

White sneakers? Strike two-and-a-half.

8. Graham Taylor

Teams: Aston Villa, Watford, Wolves, England, Aston Villa (again), Watford (again), Lincoln City

Status: Retired

It's hard to put a single word on the various looks sported by Graham Taylor through the years.

Frumpy and rumpled, however, seem to fit most of the time.

7. Barry Fry

Teams: Peterborough United, Birmingham City, Southend United, Barnet, Maidstone United, Barnet (again), Bedford Town, Hillingdon Borough, Dunstable Town

Status: Retired

Speaking of frumpy…

6. Kevin Keegan

Teams: Newcastle United, Manchester City, England, Fulham, Newcastle United (again)

Status: Retired? (We could all see a dramatic return, though, couldn't we?)

And by worst-dressed, we mean best formerly great hair, of course.

Still, King Kev could do with a trip to the tailor.

5. Lars Lagerback

Teams: Iceland, Nigeria (pictured), Sweden, Sweden B, Sweden U-21, Hudiksvalls ABK, Arbra BK, Kilafors IF

Status: Active with Iceland

Oh, Lars. Why?

So… much… green…

4. Ron Atkinson

Teams: Nottingham Forest, Sheffield Wednesday, Coventry City, Aston Villa, Sheffield Wednesday (again), Atletico Madrid, West Bromwich Albion, Manchester United, West Bromwich Albion (again), Cambridge Town, Kettering Town

Status: Perfecting Ronglish

Not sure where Big Ron was going with this look. But, hey, he's a pundit now, so let's just go with it.

3. Brian Clough

Teams: Nottingham Forest, Leeds United, Brighton & Hove Albion, Derby County, Hartlepools United

Status: Deceased

Brian Clough was an all-time great. Clearly not because of his sartorial sense.

2. Dunga

Teams: Brazil, Brazil U-23

Status: Inactive

Quick, is this Dunga, or Hal from television's Malcolm in the Middle?

You have five seconds to decide.

1. Owen Coyle

Teams: Bolton, Burnley, St. Johnstone, Falkirk

Status: Active

Dude. You're not a player anymore.

Just don't.
