Winston Biscuit Postacoglu sacked


He's one foreigner they might let into the British Managers' Luncheon Club!

Two successful short-term 'destroy and exits' on big contracts...money, money, money!


He won a European trophy. Who was the last English manager to do that? Howard Kendall?

Eintracht Frankfurt away! Surely if LFC loses that, Slot can't survive 5 losses in a row?

Sounds like Dyche to Forest. Smart money is he keeps them up and then gets sacked at the end of the season as they go after sexier football.

With an English club probably. But Bobby Robson won one with Barcelona didn't he, that would have been mid-90s?

Didn't Southgate win something with Boro, or was it just a surprisingly deep run/getting to Europe?

They were battered 4-0 in the final and got relegated. A feat only Southgate has managed with club and country

You'd have thought he'd had enough of clueless owners after his stint at Sheffield Wednesday.

Bit of a free hit though isn't it. Succeed and you'll be loved by their fans* and been seen as having done really well at a basket case of a club. Fail and you get your big pay off and everyone will put the blame on how badly the club is run.



* if you'd want that

Whilst Eintracht seem to be able to score at will this season, the lack of any defence will probably help Liverpool tomorrow. 3-2 away win.
