Who do you fancy to walk or be pushed first? I did a little write-up a couple of weeks back on why I thought Sherwood looked a good bet but there's obviously plenty of pressure on Rogers and Pellegrini. http://www.backtheoutsider.com/sherwood-the-pantomine-villain-offers-great-odds-in-sack-race/
Odds on would be B Rodgers by Xmas if Liverpool don't start well and first 7 away games won't help him. cant see Leicester having a long term view either so would tip them to change again this season, as could Newcastle. i think City will keep Pell till Klopp or Guardiola is free so should be there all season. most other teams will stick with what they have, but Levy must be due a new manager soon as he has had Poch for a while! Only kidding as I think Poch will guide Spurs to 5th again this year and a long way ahead of Liverpool, and Spurs might do well in Cups. I have a gut feeling that we will meet again in FA Cup
Managers at Leicester, Watford, Newcastle and Man City and Liverpool are most at risk. Will come from that 5 imo.
Obviously, it depends on how the first ten, or so, games go. But, considering that Brenda has spent a lot of money, yet again, he has to be my top bet.
City have spent 60million and have bought poorly. Worse than Liverpool? Not technically possible for any side to do as bad but its a lot of money for zero improvement. Funny how many people think Sterling will improve City though. He really improved Liverpool too....
He may well be a decent signing but he will never justify 49million. People still talk about us paying 25.8million for Rooney and say it was a lot. Look at his time here, Sterling wont do half as well and cost twice as much.
Firstly, you have to look at it in context. The money paid for Rooney was, at that time, and given the much smaller amount of money in the game, a huge fee. It was eleven years ago, remember. We might be looking back in eleven years or so and saying what a bargain Sterling was. I very much doubt it, but the given the rate the game is growing at, who knows.
Eleven years ago, paying £25.8m for a player was like £50m-£60m in today's money! Other than that, I agree
Arsenal fans will be the first to be calling for their manager to be sacked like they do every season
It was like spending 35million today. Rooney was good value and a bit special too. Chelsea paid almost as much for swp.... Sterling is SWP mk2 Sterling doesnt look special.
