    Surprised that no one has been sacked this season (not counting Lopetegui as it was before the season started.) who are you placing your bets on?

      If the bottom three stays the same and continues to drift, there may be very few. It’s a weird season all-round, and if established PL teams aren’t in any danger of relegation there won’t be sackings.

      As one of those people who can’t even watch an under-fire manager giving an interview, I’m kind of here for it.

        I think it has mainly to do with the lack of available top managers. If there were replacements available, ETH would be out for sure. But who are you going to replace him with. Potter?

        Chelsea have realised that they can’t keep sacking players, no matter how shit the results are this season (unless we are talking about genuine relegation danger).

        Crystal palace are doing Crystal palace things, so nothing will change there. The bottem three is as expected. Wolves getting results just in time for them to consider sacking the manager. Silva has enough credit based on the previous 2 seasons to not be in danger.

        I genuinly think the one that might be in danger the most could be Howe, because of the ruthlessness of oil clubs. I don’t think anyone is in danger, and I don’t think the Saudis sack Howe, but I imagine that if he gets in the bottem half of the table there might be trouble. Also depending on his cup performances ofcourse

      I’d go the Bmouth manager, I know they just beat Newcastle but they’ve been awful all season and O’Neil is doing well at Wolves which makes him look extra bad

        Nah Iraola is safe I reckon, they’ve got two good wins in the last 2/3 weeks and they had a really hard schedule to start off with.

        Think he has the minerals to be a good coach in this league too.

      Feel like it could be Kompany, Burnley have invested well as per their standards.

      And the football he’s trying to play is difficult to achieve using unexperienced pl players
