Ok guys who do we see as the weak link going into the new season? Also, which managers do you see as a safe bet and lasting beyond the New Year?

For me the untouchables will be Slot, Maresca, Arteta, Guardiola, and I’m going stick my neck out and add Amorim. My favourite to see the door first has got to be Andrews, having lost their star players without really replacing them with the same quality.

Arsenal - Arteta
Villa - Emery
Bournemouth - Iraola
Brentford - Andrews
Brighton - Hurzeler
Burnley - Parker
Chelsea - Maresca
Palace - Glasner
Everton - Moyes
Fulham - Silva
Leeds - Farke
Liverpool - Slot
City - Guardiola
United - Amorim
Newcastle - Howe
Forest - Nuno
Sunderland - Le Bris
Spurs - Frank
West Ham - Potter
Wolves - Pereira
 
For once I don't really see a standout candidate. Andrews could go either way but Brentford have a track record of promoting from within.

The promoted teams are the usual culprits for going early but all of the three have spent money and will be hoping to make early inroads. The mid-table teams all have managers they want to keep hold of rather than fire.

Unless a club has a remarkably bad start I can see this being the longest we go without anyone getting sacked.
 
Gone with Nuno, because the owner is a nutcase.

I cannot see them doing as well as last season.
 
Went with potter but was a toss up between him and Amorim.
No Howe in the poll but he’ll walk long before he’s fired.
 
Le Bris. Sunderland are making a lot of signings hoping to buck the trend of yoyo-ing. If it's looking dire by November, he'll be gone.

Andrews second. Brentford have been stripped, he'll pay the iron price and they'll ultimately go down.

Amorim to get sacked after Christmas, both Slot and Arteta gone in the summer after trophyless seasons. Everyone else will remain.

Love this. The three that came up will be odds on to go down, Brentford have been ravaged but to blame the managers I think is harsh.
 
For the sake of being different, I'll say Pereira, a calamitous first 2 months of the season will see Wolves rooted toward the bottom and Wolves will decide to cut him loose and appoint Steve Gerrard to try and salvage their season.
 
So Howe now been added and seems like the votes have moved because of it :confused:
I definitely didn’t pick Frank. I think he’ll do ok. Can we have a stewards enquiry here.
