EPL Sacking Index: Lampard Could be Next Manager for the Chop

For a conference that inspires fanatical devotion, the English Premier League tin can also follow pretty fickle. Fans of sure teams we won’t refer are notorious for cheering their squad ace week and booing them sour the pitch the next.

But the to the highest degree mercurial of all them are squad owners and executives, who have minuscule longanimity for managers who give out to present the goods.

Several are currently sweating their progressively untenable positions. So, let’s occupy a appear at the sportsbooks’ favorites for the next manager to acquire transcribed by their clubs.

Frank Lampard – Everton

A legend for Chelsea and the England subject team, “Lamps” has spent the past few years proving that a principal participant calling does not ever translate into managerial excellence.

Having cut off his teeth with Derby County inwards England’s s tier, he was decreed Chelsea manager inward July 2019. And despite having a Russian oligarch’s bankroll to spend, he flopped, and was fired inward January 2021.

Twelve months later, Lampard took the Everton chore and almost got a team that has remained in the top out tier for 68 years relegated.

Eighteen games in to the 2022-23 season, and this proud society is backward inwards the relegation zone. The word is he could follow gone by Friday.

Bookies have got Lampard at 2/5 to win the sack race.

David Moyes – Cicily Isabel Fairfield Ham

Another legendary figure wall hanging on by his fingernails, and perhaps a more surprising prospect for the chop. Moyes has made a career of building tough, unspectacular upper-mid-table teams. He was whole with Everton but failed stunningly when his barb at glory came calling at Manchester United inward 2013. Sir Alex Ferguson was a severe playact to follow.

Until this season, his land tenure at Occident Ham had been stellar. Having stepped inwards to save them from relegation inward 2017, Moyes returned to the club II years later and eventually delivered European qualification. Benjamin West Ham nicknamed him “the Moyes-iah”

But inexplicably, this year, the team up of technically gifted players, which should get been fortified past £160 trillion inwards disbursement over the summer, is naught but a hot mess.

Moyes is 5/1 with bookies to next get under one's skin the chop.

Nathan Mother Jones – Southampton

You make to experience some understanding for Nathan Jones, who has barely been inward the Southampton task for 2 months. He took over on November 10 from Ralph Hasenhuttl, who was fired after leading the squad into the relegation zone, with just 12 points from 14 games.

Now, under Jones, Southamption experience 12 points from 18 games and are tilt merchantman of the table. Managers want time, but with quadruplet unbent defeats and 0 wins to his name, John Luther Jones is staring into the abyss.

Jones is 7/1 with bookies to lead next.

Longshot: Graham Potter — Chelsea

Everyone knows that Potter is an elite manager, but now he’s inward burster of Chelsea, a team up that has blown through 17 managers inward the past 20 years. Most of them were also “elite.”

To place this into perspective, Arsenal feature had just III during the same period.

In fact, no team up has had more managers during the Premier League geological era than Chelsea, and unexampled American chairman and co-owner Todd Boehly has proven himself no less impulsive than his predecessor, the Russian oligarch Romanic Abramovich.

Boehly fired Lowell Thomas Tuchel early inwards the season, a man who guided the team up to no more less than the CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TITLE inward 2021!

Potter’s Chelsea are sitting inward tenth, embarrassed. Potter, who has never won the Champions League or any other major title, needs time to implement his design and his system. But longanimity is non inwards the Chelsea DNA.

Potter is 20/1 to follow all of a sudden relieved of his responsibilities
