Rucksackfranzose Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I know the season hasn't even begun yet. Still, why should we predict the first manager to be sacked only when it's rather obvious which one it'll be? Was in a spiteful mood today and checked the odds for Buli managers to be sacked. In order of assumed probability: David Wagner 3/1 Peter Bosz/ Markus Gisdol/ Heiko Herrlich 5/1 each Lucien Favre/ Florian Kohfeldt/ Bruno Labbadia/ Pellegrino Materazzo 7/1 each Achim Beierlorzer/ Uwe Neuhaus 10/1 each Urs Fischer/ Sebastian Hoeneß/ Adi Hütter 15/1 each Oliver Glasner 20/1 Christian Streich 25/1 Hans-Dieter Flick/ Julian Nagelsmann/ Marco Rose 50/1 each Bit surprised Streich got that short odds, as I'd say every other Buli manager is far more likely to be sacked, and i'm expressly including Flick and Nagelsmann here. Disappointed with the short odds Wagner got, wanted to to put a few bucks on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that Mainz has fired their manager, who will be the 3rd sacking of the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfsburg have exactly been looking good and are already out of the Europa League. Think he's not in that much danger at the moment. Wolfsburg have been missing quite a few players with injuries, that surely will give him some leeway. But if they fail to start winning in the league soon enough, then surely there will be pressure on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just curious if Wolfsburg lose Weghorst (which has been rumored), then I'd be worried about Glasner's role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the sense that Wolfsburg has struggled early to score, and losing their best strikers without a replacement could doom them even further. Not that I think it will happen, but it certainly could. What do you suppose is the job security for Florian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they sell Weghorst, then I'd expect them to get a replacement for him before the transfer market shuts... If they don't, then it's surely Schäfer's fault, not Glasner's? But sure, if the struggle, the trainer is usually the first one to go, so it certainly could happen. In case of Kohfeldt, hard to say. Don't think he'll survive another relegation battle, but as long as we're getting points and not losing 10 matches in a row, he's likely safe. Don't think we can afford sacking him and appointing some new manager, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber nudge+ Posted November 6, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted November 6, 2020 Glasner has openly criticised Wolfsburg's transfer policy today and said he's very frustrated that they didn't sign an attacking player despite them discussing it for months. Schmadtke said he's disappointed with Glasner complaining to the media, and especially with the timing of it. Looks like we might have another sacking soon.

Rucksackfranzose Posted October 20, 2021 Author Share Posted October 20, 2021 Since we're slowly but inexorably approaching the time, when the first clubs lose their patience with their managers, wondered who will be sacked in the near future. There are a few candidates in my opinion. Frankfurt can't be satisfied with the points they won under Glasner's helm so far. Hertha BSC's point tally and league position surely doesn't fit their self-image as undisputable number 1 in Berlin. Leipzig hoped for more than 8th place after 8 matches and nil points from three CL games, which indicates Marsch might be under pressure. Van Bommel might be under scrutiny as well, if Wolfsburg continue their losing streak against Freiburg, which is far from impossible. Finally there are the usual suspects at the south end of the table: Leitl at Fürth, Kramer at Bielefeld, Reiss at Bochum, and Weinzierl at Augsburg.

Subscriber nudge+ Posted October 20, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted October 20, 2021 I thought about Van Bommel after seeing that Wolfsburg lost against Salzburg today, as well. Could see him getting the sack if they lose the next match in the league. I think RB will stick with Marsch (hopefully). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Tommy Posted October 20, 2021 Moderator Share Posted October 20, 2021 I'm quite surprised that Pal Dardai hasn't been sacked yet. But maybe Hertha aren't as trigger happy with Bobic at the helm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Coma+ Posted October 21, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted October 21, 2021 I don't feel like Leitl or Reiss deserve the sack. Fürth management should not have expected to stay up with no real signings of note. The only reason they were promoted (imo) was Kiel going into quarantine so many times at the end of last season. Bochum haven't been that bad really. I would expect Van Bommel, Glasner, or Weinzierl to be the favorites at this point. I'd put Weinzierl at the top of that list.

Subscriber Coma+ Posted October 21, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted October 21, 2021 Who would you designate as the surprise manager of the season? I mean... besides the obvious... (cough) Streich (cough). It continues to amaze me how well Urs Fischer has done to keep Union competitive in the top division, and they're playing some fantastic football. Also, credit to Baumgart, although I think Köln are punching above their ability right now due to a favorable schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides Baumgart Seoane should be mentioned, am surprised how well he adopted to Buli and with the beautiful football they play, Bayern match notwithstanding.

Perhaps I should have rephrased that as "surprise position in the league". Certainly Streich gets the most out of his players but to be 4th and unbeaten through 8 matches is a surprise.
