Sack race 22/23 season

[PITA]

First 3 managers for the bullet this season?

1 Brendan Rodgers

2 Graham Potter

3 Eddie Howe

Good shout.

I don't think he'd be a good manager when he's not managing the most talented side in the world. And I value winning leagues more as a measure of a manager because it requires a level of consistent excellence that a cup competition doesn't. I'll take Pep and Sir Alex over Jose and Zidane any day.

Could say that about any of the top managers though. I dread to think how Pep would cope with some of our yarddogs trying to play football. Most of the top managers would be unsuited to managing at lower levels. Doesn’t make them bad managers. Someone’s teams probably wouldn’t even score a goal without the world class strikers he’s always had at Atletico.

Zidane also won 2 leagues in 4 seasons if I remember?

Football is an extremely unfair sport. I get that it still requires ability to manage top sides but I just don't know who I actually rate because of it.

Wow, that's a huge risk imo.

That's nuts. I can imagine a few weeks back Southampton were looking at their plight and thinking we still have a chance because Leeds have Marsch and he will take them down. Roll forward a few weeks and they take Marsch on as manager.

Southampton should probably have got down on two knees and begged Hasenhuttl to try and save them. Yes he enjoys being spanked 9-0, but he had them playing ok for decent parts of his tenure there, and he's obviously a better manager than Marsch. That said, watch Marsch leads them to 17th place now.

 

[bluejohn66]

Attractive to Leeds on his compo package and especially attractive to Southampton as they can pay him a low wage and Leeds will be obliged to make up the difference. Same as what Koeman did to us.

Maybe he was all they could get

How more so than us appointing Dyche? When Dyche was sacked from Burnley they were in the relegation zone 4 points behind us with 8 games remaining. He's now here, and many people think it's a brilliant appointment.

COYB!

Dyche at least had a sustained period of relative success before the fairly inevitable drop-off. Marsch probably had about 8 decent games and was crap the rest of the time.

Your insistence on seeing a positive in his appointment is admirable.

COYB!

Yeah but dont forget Moyes also took Sunderland down once, sometimes its just the club, not the manager, the time comes for them to go

Yes, so as could be the case with JM and Leeds. Anyone who thinks there is greater jeopardy in Southampton appointing Marsch than in Everton bringing in Dyche is delusional. Both appointments are desperate rolls of the dice loaded with massive risk.

The are, but it was giong to be like that whoever we got, Frank was a bigger risk last season, and that worked out.
I think over the last week its starting to become obvious Southampton wil go, so at least thats one down
