    Agree with Everton, Agree with Bournemouth - as far as their struggles / league position go, but can't see them binning off the managers. I reckon Brendan's gonna have a **** fit when more players are sold and nobody comes in, and he'll be off / ousted.

    Moyes must be a candidate - their next three are Villa (a), Spurs (h), Chelsea (a)

    Can't see them picking up many points there on current form

    After what he did with them last year or two? Absolutely no chance, in my opinion, unless they're banking on CL footy or something equally as bizarre.

    Moyes has credit in the bank with the Hammers fans atm. He'll be ok until 10 games in especially if they are progressing in cups and Europe.

    Gerrard for me most likely to go. Villa expect to be challenging for Europe but he'll have them heading down. Lampard wil lbe fine they can't pay him off and who'd go there with that squad?

    An out there shout but after Klopp's rant yesterday against the board at Liverpool re. wanting a midfielder I think he could walk/get the chop if he doesn't get the signings he wants and they have only manage a few points in the next few games Man U, Bournemouth, Us, Wolves and Everton before they have a horrid run of Chelsea, City, Brighton and Arsenal in the 4 following that. They should be fine for the top 4 but if they only have, say, 8-10 points by the 10 game marker I think he could walk before he's pushed.

    Struggling when the season first began was normal fair for Moyes at Everton, remember multiple times were looked relegation candidates but by Jan they'd transformed their fortunes and finished in an extremely healthy position.

    He's transformed the Hammers, they were absolute horrible ****s to sack him the first time around for essentially doing nothing wrong and were then extremely brave and mature to rehire him when it went wrong.

    Doubt they'll make the same mistake again, he's a good manager.

    Don't think that'll count for anything if they're sitting on 0 points after 6 games

    Nope, but possible based on upcoming fixtures, although I'd happily see them take points of Villa

    Looks as though Brendan Rodger’s is closest to the bullet

    He’s had his hands tied. They are going to lose Tielemen Forfana and possibly others. For some reason the money has dried up for them.

    Moyes or Rodgers for me like.

    I’ve seen lots of complaints about him as well and not just his fans tied. Apparently he’s turning in to Bruce

    I've heard that their wage bill is over the 70% limit of their income. So to bring players in they need to get some players off their books.

    After what he's done in the last 2 years though, expectations are high - if he loses the first 6 games, they'll be some serious alarm bells ringing.

    I'd imagine King Power has lost a ton of money due of the lack of tourism to Thailand over the duration of the pandemic, no real revenue coming into their duty-free shop business for two years straight means they've got to pull back on supplementing Leicester's transfer budget for a few windows until they can replenish their parent companies cash reserve.

    This partly plus also the wages issue. They were on 90%+ I thought (which is insane levels) and have fallen outside money-spinning European competition.

    The odd thing for me is that it makes no financial sense to hold on to Tielemans if he isn't signing a new contract (and to a lesser extent Maddison too). Fee plus wages is around 30-35million to have him for one season.

    Gérard first to go by the way. No credit in the bank, lots of money spent (they've got a good team) and they look bottom 6 material to me.

    You were all wrong. Scott Parker sacked by Bournemouth. Why not just say we don’t like being beaten 9-0 instead of this load of bolllocks:

    However, in order for us to keep progressing as a team and a Club as a whole, it is unconditional that we are aligned in our strategy to run the club sustainably. We must also show belief in and respect for one another. That is the approach that has brought this club so much success in recent history, and one that we will not veer from now. Our search for a new head coach will begin immediately.”
