Lets be honest if Klopp was our manager he would be much loved

Arteta.
Pep is annoying obnoxious and arrogant but at least has the pedigree to back it up.

Arteta has all the worse traits without having the success to back it up. He is also a bigger dickhead on the sideline than any other manager.
Klopp I kind of respect, but I hate how he is all smiles, when winning and is genuinely awful when losing. Pep's weird personality I don't dislike - it's just bemusing.
Arteta is clearly the worst.

As an FPL player... Pep all day 
Poor little Thomas from poor little old Brentford.... he's just got a bad case of small club syndrome.
Him, Klopp then Lego for me.
Then maybe Brendan.
Conte
Emery
Howe
Couldn't care less about the rest.
I dont even bother about Pep or City enough to dislike him.
Arteta, acts like he’s made it because they were top halfway through the season. Tries too hard to emulate other cnuts like Pep and Klopp.
Arteta and not even close. A real shame cus I loved him as a player.
1.Pep - sly, calculated weirdo.
2 Arteta He really thinks he's some kind of visionary his touchline antics are something else.
3.klopp All teeth when the goings good, shows his real self when they get beat.
Daylight the rest.

Arteta in a stratosphere all out on his own. Despise the fecker as much as I despise Arsenal...and that takes some doing.
Klopp & Arteta are clear. Pep a close 3rd.
Arteta or Conte for me.
Arteta is a terrible loser and a cheat. I can't stand him.
Conte is just such an attention seeking 'passion merchant'. It's all so fake.

Does any neutral fan like Lego Pep?
He is a full blown cnut without any charisma or wins.

Surely lego cnut
Arteta by a country mile
Guardiola is a bellend and a charisma vacuum. His mate at Arsenal ain't any better
What's the point? The job of a manager is to win, not to be popular. Twenty years ago, many opposing fans did not like SAF, who cares?
My vote is Lego Pep
Fecking hate Klopp and his victimization. Cant stand managers who are always winning, he's a really good manager but a fecking cry baby.
Klopp
If you really dislike a manager it’s because they are doing really well; Klopp & Guardiola have won loads so fans dislike them when they try to get every inch of an edge by complaining when anything goes against them. Now Arteta is looking like building something with arsenal so he is becoming more irritating. For years fans despised Ferguson, we adored him. Bit of a pointless thread.
Surprised by the lack of Brendan Rodgers mentions. I suppose he is more cringeworthy than outright dislikeable.
Pep can seem okay at times (bit odd) and has always spoken very highly of us but the recent press conference I saw that was riddled with entitlement and strongly based on the factual innacuracy that they were found innocent by UEFA or CAS grinded my gears pretty good.
Klopp definitely has a bit of charisma which makes it hard for me to truly hate him despite being a massive crybaby.

Arteta and Klopp close
Conte
Rodgers
Moyes
Wish I could say Gerard but he’s long gone
You can be a good manager a still a very unlikeable one - being dishonest, full of yourself with nothing to back it up, having no personality, throwing players under the bus etc, all counts here for me
I love to hate Pep, couldn’t ask for a better nemesis and I thoroughly respect him even if take pleasure in his failings and the fact I can still claim Sir Alex is the GOAT of my times with Don Carlo and Pep a tier below. His cokehead persona, the way he nervously touches his face, the way he express himself make me watch his press conferences with joy.
Also - a way to think about it is who’s the last manager you’d like to go for a beer with

Pep. You expect a manager to be a bit of a twat when they lose, but it's just the snide remarks and general weird shiftiness from him that does my head in.
Klopp 100%. The way he blames everything and anything when they lose is truly embarrassing. From the weather to the refs to the opposition trying too hard he is insufferable in interviews.
Things you love to see - Thomas Frank still winding some of you up….
Klopp, but i feel as if guardiola lost as often as klopp has this season, he'd be similarly insufferable
Lego is on the same level as Klopp and Pep for me but with a very slappable face so he edges it
Before recent event it was Klopp, mainly due to who he managed, but Pep has outdone himself in recent days, the ritalin twat.
He still commanded respect. Artetas antics on the touchline is embarrassing.
Pep.
I warmed to him a little during the Amazon doc with the silly goofy stuff like playing YAWN at the training ground right before getting slapped 4-0 at Anfield and the weird little light bulb thing. It was endearing in a way. But yeah he’s a very annoying manager in general.
Arteta for me - partly the reason I want them to implode. He's insufferable. Always trying to influence the referee, never shuts up during a game, never stays in his touchline, and has now added pep's choreography to his armory.
Close second is Lopetegui - See Arteta, only less of an annoying face.
Thomas Frank can also be a cnut. He looks like one too so I cannot stand his antics when his team is winning, especially against us, even if I generally like Brentford.
Notable mentions:
Conte when he managed Chelsea
Emery when Villa are in form
Moyes last season. I hated the smugness on his face as they challenged for Europe.

He commanded respect because he had won a lot. Arteta hasn't won anything yet.
The one who acts like a 5 years old ball boy and kicked it away from KDB.

Not seeing it with Klopp. He's a notoriously poor loser, but outside of that, I think people are letting the club he manages cloud their opinion. He's often the voice of reason in the media in the same way Wenger used to be. Don't forget how he trashed Agbonlahor in defence of Ten Hag at the start of the season.
Arteta, however, there is nothing redeemable. No charisma, no graciousness, just a bitter, entitled air about him.

Pep. The guy is deluded and stuck on himself
