Power Ranking Each of the Premier League’s Eight New Managers Ahead of the New Season
5 – Marco Rose
Marco Rose is very much a Premier League newcomer, taking over from Iraola at
Bournemouth to manage in the Premier League for the first time. The German has
enjoyed spells in charge of some of Germany’s biggest clubs, including Borussia
Dortmund, Borussia Monchengladbach, and most recently RB Leipzig.
His tenure in charge of the Red Bulls, however, did end in disappointment as Leipzig
failed to qualify for Europe for the first time since securing promotion to the Bundesliga
in 2016. He will be aiming to return to winning ways and lead Bournemouth on a
continental charge next term.

6 – Pierre Sage
Frenchman Pierre Sage takes over at Crystal Palace for the departing Glasner, and he
will be looking to build on the good work done by the Austrian across the last two years.
The 47-year-old led Lens to a second-place finish in Ligue 1 last term, finishing just six
points behind heavyweights Paris Saint-Germain before going on to beat Nice to secure
the Coupe de France for the first time.
7 – Gary O’Neill
Gary O’Neill returns to the Premier League with newly promoted Ipswich Town after a
stint in Ligue 1 with Strasbourg. He enjoyed tenures in charge of both Bournemouth and
Wolves to varying levels of success, and he’s looking to prove that he belongs as a top-
flight manager.
8 – Alvaro Arbeloa
Former Liverpool defender Alvaro Arbeloa managed at the senior level for the first time
last season, and he did so in charge of Spanish giants Real Madrid. His stint left a lot to
be desired, however, as Los Blancos finished eight points behind rivals Barcelona in the
title race after a campaign dogged by dressing room turmoil. He takes charge at a
Fulham team looking to break into the top half of the Premier League table.
