Which Premier League managers are the biggest moaners? A few probably come to mind straight away. Jurgen Klopp recently lived up to his name by complaining about one of his all time favourite topics – the fixture list – and specifically in this case, the Community Shield.
Likewise, Thomas Tuchel and Mikel Arteta are known for a good old post-match rant about the officials or just about anything else.
But are these reputations justified – and if they are, who’s the biggest moaner of the lot? To answer these questions, the Athletic listened to the comments made by every Premier League manager after a loss or draw in the 2021/2022 domestic season.
With the data they collected, they’ve ranked managers by how frequently they complain or make excuses in such situations – as well as identifying what each manager loves to blame the most.
