Slim Rafa won titles and major trophies at major clubs

Fat Rafa gets a job with NUFC.

Nuff said !

He wasn't even that slim at Liverpool!

He's one of very few managers to prove he can do a good job with top clubs and with 'lesser' clubs.

His time at Newcastle was extremely successful considering the constraints he was under. It was more impressive than some of the odd domestic trophies he's won in the past.

Depends on how you want to define 'achievements', but given your manager hasn't won a trophy yet, I am sure you don't believe that trophies are the main barometer of achieving success. I'm assuming you don't believe Roberto Martinez is a better manager than Poch?

They have been eating healthy for years and are know enjoying the bloating stage..

If we’re talking about men in their mid-to-late 50s, isn’t it natural they’ll be carrying some timber?

Depends if they are managing athletes I'd say...gotta project the right image

Bruce is more like a jacket potato really.

With extra butter and a pound of cheese

Decent manager, Brucey. Could be worth a £1 bet on him not relegating Newcastle like a few of his predecessors.

Good character has got Brucey where he is, not his pastry face.

Just check out some of the 93-94 vids to see how he is a leader of men.

Hughes and Cantona to name a couple you wouldn't like to control. Schmeichel as well.

Steve Evans was very lardy in his Leeds days.

Poch wasn’t slim in his Southampton days, was pretty porky! He’s lost a lot since being at spurs though.

Bob Paisley was overweight!

Pochettino can still suit up and go out and play.
He may well have to, the way the transfer season is going with Levy!

Poch is going to be Toby's replacement.

More importantly, which manager has the biggest ego? My money is on Brendan Rodgers?

Brendan was big before the gastric band.

The proof will be in Fat Frank`s pudding
