Welcome to the Foxpunter Manager Profiling podcast, hosted by sports writer and broadcaster Jack Critchley and Foxpunter's Mike Holden.
Every week we'll focus on a selection of football managers, their leadership styles, how they celebrate, commiserate and how they deal with difficult situations.
This week we put the spotlight on recently appointed Watford boss Claudio Ranieri. We look at how the mercurial Italian's relentless optimism enables him to thrive in the right environment and why it can often fall flat if he isn't able to make a positive first impression.
We also looked at Derek Adams and how his role of pantomine villain may not endear him to the fans and the media, however, it often seems to have a galvanising effect on his players.
