Can't see him surviving the weekend. Looks like we will be getting Jose for Christmas

Would you honestly be happy about that after his revealing behavour under pressure this season?

I'd be happy with Alan Curbishley making an Ali like return to the ring at this point Ralph!

He's has one horrid season out of a career of success.

However I'd rather have Pep but that's not gonna happen

Paddy Power have paid out on LVG next premier league manager to be sacked

a different era, but LVG has a better record in his first 72 games as man u manager than wenger had in his first 72 at Arsenal

I'll ask the stupid question again...

How about backing the manager that's sorted out a woeful defence and showing the players they aren't in charge?

The last couple of weeks have been awful as an advert for the sport. Players have stopped playing for two of the best club managers of all time and the clubs have bowed to their demands.

that is exactly right. However its not the way football is these days. player power, in terms of contract size/length, is far too strong.

As tighty said its not the way things work. No one gets any time.

Gary Monk sacked after leading Swansea to their best ever finish being a prime example.

LVG one of the best club managers of all time? Is this a Channel4 Top 100 with LVG getting a brief mention before the first adverts? Historic success doesn't make him a top manager now.

This idea that LVG 'sorted out the defence' is fine and dandy, but the cost of that was to have the back four supported by two totally defensive midfield players and two or three in front of them who are afraid to lose the ball. Hence the inability to score/create decent chances.
Even then, this 'sorted' defensive unit has conceded two to Watford, two to Bournemouth, two more to Norwich (at home) and another two today.

I cant take any ticket that talks about support the manager and all that stuff. The manager is lauded when successful and fired when results are bad - seems sensible to me.

Most of business is riddled with executives who claim credit when business goes well and explain failure based on 'circumstances' and hang on to their jobs.  Zero integrity in this whereas in football the manager firing thing is about the only thing that still has some
