That has sacked after 4 months written all over it.

 

Looking at the job count on his CV I think that might be his plan

After they play Leicester (a) this weekend they've got Man Utd, Spurs, Forest, Newcastle, Chelsea, Arsenal, Villa and Liverpool coming up next :lol:

Looks like their horrendous start is coming back round, I know why they gave him the time after their tough start, and hindsight is 20/20 and all that but sticking with O'Neil during their "Favourable" runs looks more and more like a mistake when you see that fixture list.

 

They could legitimately be 10 points adrift at the end of that run.

Never heard of him so had a Google and I see his last role was being given less than 2 months to follow De Rossi at Roma. :lol: Feels proper Italian that. 

As does him managing Genoa three times in a row between 2016 and 18!

Italian owners really are insane....wasn't there some udinese/Watford guy that managed them about 5 different times in 7 years?

Watford have Italian owners and I think they own Udinese too (and Malaga?) and they just sack their manager one or two times a year or it seems. Checked it the other day actually as I noticed Tom Cleverley's manging Watford now. When players you bought as a hot prospect in Football Manager are managing teams themselves it makes you feel old!

Looks like they're on their 10th permanent manager since December 2019. Just bonkers.

Not sure on how credible this is mind…

 

 

Reported in the Daily Mail as well: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-14222339/Sporting-Lisbon-set-sack-head-coach-Vitor-Pereira-just-one-month-replaced-Man-United-boss-Ruben-Amorim-following-Old-Trafford.html

 

Though given Vitor Pereira is the new manager of Wolves and Joao Pereira is the manager of Sporting I have my doubts.

The charges hanging over is the thing, getting someone quality long term deal may be tough but i imagine they'd get someone dependable in to 'steady the ship' and try and lure an exciting young coach who has nothing too much to lose if they get relegated by the charges in the summer
