Just another couple of adverse results and Klopperty could be walking alone.
He might just go before Koeman or they could both be sacked in the same week, which would be a shame as they're both trying hard to take their respective clubs into the Championship.
Leeds v the Dippers next season would be a tasty fixture.

Something to be said now for cashing in on Coutinho and investing in VVD

Sky now touting Family Man for Everton & Leicester vacancies - he's exclusively informed them he's interested - isn't there a law against this sort of thing.

Who's next?
Bilic? Thing is he's the Gloria Gaynor of the PL.
Hughes
Pulis
Pellegrino (important win this weekend to keep him above the fray)
Klopp will get more time unless they utterly collapse. Right now he will be able to attribute it to the defender quality in the squad.
Wonder who will take over at Everton...
Pellegrini seems like a realistic possibility if he doesn't get the Leicester gig over Dyche.
Problem with Everton is they lack pace and a real centre forward now. Sure, they spent a lot of money, but they also sold Lukaku, Deulofeu and Cleverly, so their net spend was about £51m or 54m (depending where you read), which is still high compared to most mid-table clubs (seems to be around 30-40m for several) and Liverpool's was actually less than theirs (says the Mirror).
I think they need to spend more, or certainly change the way they play. Oh and their defence is almost as shambolic as Liverpool's at times (Williams being a major cuplrit)

On Talkspite this afternoon, they said that the Family Man had declared an interest in managing Everton........as well as Leicester.
Adrian Durham gave him a lot of stick because hr said it seemed Giggs was saying "any old job will do".
I don't think Durham realised how his comment might be interpreted, especially in Scouseland as Evertonians wouldn't think managing their lot would be as Durham phrased it.

Koeman's finest hour was his 4-0 defeat of us according to SSN

I share everyone's common sense attitide towards the despicable trend of early sacking of managers.
But wouldn't be common sense as well, to also start factoring that even the Premership seems to having been infected by the also despicable trend to appoint "fancy", "trendy" managers, just for the sake of it?
I am partly thinking of Koeman and surely much more of DeBoer, whose impact on the distruction of the Inter milan's side that Mancini was laboriously trying to build again, has been so blatantly exposed by the little time took to a real good manager like Spalletti to turn, what seemed a bunch of clueless talentless brats in total meltdown, into a seemingly title contender in Serie A.
My utmost admiration for the qualities of the Dutch managerial culture is well known, but the present generation of fancy guys doesn't seem to live up to the glorious past of former generations, imo.
finally, talking of Luciano Spalletti, and the fact that Mourinho's Barnum show appears close to a new take off (barring some seriously supportive effort by Gill-scum, the start of a new blame campaign into the rags dressing room is getting closer)... that exactly the last man I would want to be offered the spending spree capability of the Munchens.
give him three years or so, and the funds wasted by Gollum and Moaninho, and sure as hell the competition in Manchester will boom as never before.
just saying!
1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City
You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...
In Roger Ailes/Donnie Drumpf's words: "don't know it for a fact, but many people say so..."
there must be some truth, then!

Leicester appoint Claude Puel - ex Southampton manager.
Odds on him still being there at Christmas?
Cue transfer requests from Mahrez, Vardy and Okazaki.
Get Kelechi back for £5m??

Pedro Caixinha sacked at Rangers. Think he was Portuguese. But they are miles behind Celtic at the moment. Surely some stability is what Rangers require

I knew that. I was just denigrating insignificant Rangers.
