    Same rules as last two seasons:

    Only three rules:
    1) The coach has to be active at a club in one of the Big 5 leagues when you submit your entry (duh)
    2) You can allocate a maximum of 3 points to a coach (to ensure a minimum of 4 coaches per entry)
    3) No limit on number of coaches (i.e. you can nominate up top 10 if you like)

    Deadline: Saturday September 18

    Frank Kramer 1
    Arteta 1
    Dyche 1
    Xisco 1
    Sampaoli 1
    Reis 1
    Weinzierl 1
    Leitl 1
    Farke 1
    Petkovic 1

    MH gets the first point of the season with Xisco. In the meanwhile, Arteta seems to have steadied the ship a bit and looks relatively safe.

    Only Alka picked Koeman, though Laporta said today that he's safe.

    MH gets the first point of the season with Xisco.

    I thought I had got that one badly wrong, since Watford are doing OK.
    2-1-4 and only -3.
    Replacement is Ranieri, wonder how that will work out.

    Played 8, Won 0, 19th in PL... I don't think Steve Bruce has much to cry about. Even without the takeover of Newcastle he'd have been in trouble!

    Yeah, Spurs somehow lucked out in the first 2-3 matches even though they were playing horribly, so we all thought Nuno was going to be OK.

    Anyway, I had missed that Michel (Getafe) got the boot on October 4.

    So standings are:

    Alkamista 3 (Bruce 2, Koeman)
    Futbolmetrix 3 (Castori, Bruce, Michel)
    Werner 1 (Castori)
    MH 1 (Xisco)

    How are Kramer, Farke and Petkovic still hanging on?

    After leading Norwich to their first win of the season, Farke is gone. Point for MH.
    And here I thought that you would gloat that - Preziosi or no Preziosi - Genoa have done
    what they always do and sacked Ballardini.

    I had missed that. Definitely grounds for gloating! And a 2-point return too. Updated standings:

    Futbolmetrix 5 (Castori, Bruce, Michel, Ballardini 2)
    Alkamista 4 (Bruce 2, Koeman, Farke)
    MH 2 (Xisco, Farke)
    Werner 1 (Castori)

    Dardai's gone. 2 points for me.

    Futbolmetrix 5 (Castori, Bruce, Michel, Ballardini 2)
    Alkamista 4 (Bruce 2, Koeman, Farke)
    Werner 3 (Castori, Dardai 2)

    Andreazzoli and Arteta look very safe, and thanks to yesterday's last-minute win so does Glasner.
    Only Jesse Marsch could still help me to a (joint) win.

    Puel finally gone, which can't be a surprise to anyone. I basically
    tossed a coin between him and Petkovic for my last pick in this
    competition. And of course I got it wrong.

    Don't get cocky! Monaco *officially* confirmed the sacking only today, 20 hours after the deadline...

    Andreazzoli and Arteta look very safe, and thanks to yesterday's last-minute win so does Glasner.
    Only Jesse Marsch could still help me to a (joint) win.

    Or not, as Alka has him too.
    I am surprised, in hindsight, that nobody suggested Benitez. he might
    be in trouble if they don't start winning soon. Injuries to Calvert-
    Lewin and Richarlison have certainly not helped.

    I would be surprised if he got the sack. His grand total transfer budget this summer was 1.5M pounds, and as you say, his two best players have been injured.

    And Rafa is gone as well. Not sure why they sold Digne, replacing him
    with an untried LB. I can understand Paterson, who has looked pretty
    good for Scotland and Rangers when given the chance, since Coleman,
    perhaps the best bargain in EPL history, has never been quite the same
    since the horrific injury, and is also getting long in the tooth.

    Everton's squad is not that bad, but they have certainly had lots of key injuries this year. Could easily get dragged into the relegation fight
    now (it is not like they have not been close before in the last 20
    years). They need Richarlison and Calvert-Lewin to stay healthy, and Doucour|- to give what he is capable of every game, as well as others
    like Allan, Mina, Gray and Townsend to pull up their socks.

    Same rules as last two seasons:

    You get 10 probability points which you can allocate to any active
    head coach in one of Europe's big 5 leagues (ENG, ESP, GER, ITA,
    FRA). Goal is to have the most points by December 31st 2021, based
    on fired coaches.
    Only three rules:
    1) The coach has to be active at a club in one of the Big 5 leagues
    when you submit your entry (duh)
    2) You can allocate a maximum of 3 points to a coach (to ensure a
    minimum of 4 coaches per entry)
    3) No limit on number of coaches (i.e. you can nominate up top 10 if
    you like)

    Deadline: Saturday September 18

    Frank Kramer 1

    Still there, surprisingly
    Arteta 1
    Dyche 1

    Just fired

    Xisco 1

    Fired

    Sampaoli 1

    Still there
    Reis 1


    Still there
    Weinzierl 1

    Still there

    Leitl 1

    Still there
    Farke 1

    Fired


    Petkovic 1

    fired

    Only 4 right over the whole season. Not very good.
