How may will get the road this year or how many will walk due to the pressure?
We can count out the ones that are safe as houses straight away…Lord Ferg, Wenger, Martin O Neill, Roy, Southgate, and David Moyes.
Phil Brown, Tony Mowbray and Tony Pulis should also be safe as they are expected to go back down and haven’t gone overboard spending money. Expactations are that they will struggle.
Scolari and Ramos will surely be given at least one full season also.
That leaves - Curbs, Hughes, Keegan, Ince, 'Arry, Rafa, Hodgson, Megson and Bruce.
Curbs is the obvious one…booed off last night and spend a right few quid between this year and last year…Extremely unpopular with the fans anyway due to style of football… Had Ferdinand sold against his wishes…probably will be the first to go.
Hughes - God knows what is going to happen at City…one thing is for sure…he is not getting what he signed up for…may walk out.
Keegan - Keegan seems extremely frustrated. Dennis Wise is running the show as regards tranfers and now Milner wants out…Alan Smith almost sold against Keegans wishes…Ashley couldn’t fire him but again Keegan may walk.
Ince - If Blackburn start to lose a few matches they will be saying he is too inexperianced and may get the road. Rumours of dressing room unrest to contend with already.
'Arry…has spent heavily must deliver. Not the most loyal of fish either - if a bigger job comes along he will go for it.
Rafa - fractous relationship with owners/board. Ex plyers constantly carping. He is lucky they got through last night. A few injuries to key players could put Rafa under pressure as there is no real depth to Liverpool’s squad…A possible to be fired and/or walk.
Hodgson - has spent a few quid. Must keep out of the bottom three or will get fired.
Megson - looks safe enough but Chairman has been known to pull the trigger if things go sour.
Bruce - Just needs to keep out of bottom three - if he does this he should be safe.
History tells us that 5/6 of the above will not be in their jobs come the end of the season.
