AFPPIX: Six midweek fixtures in the Premier League could go a long way towards deciding who plays in next season’s Champions League and who is eventually relegated to the Championship.
With talk already turning to interest in former Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann as Potter’s long-term replacement, Bruno has the difficult task of finding the stability that Potter was unable to find, although Potter’s departure in itself could make for an easier atmosphere in Stamford Bridge, according to Xinhua.
Klopp’s side are eight points behind Manchester United, who currently occupy fourth place in the league and have to win to keep any slim top-four hopes alive. Tuesday’s remaining matches all have plenty to say at the wrong end of the table, with a south-coast derby between Bournemouth and Brighton also affecting the battle for Europe.
Leeds United’s 4-1 defeat away to Arsenal saw them drop to 17th and depending on Everton’s result against Tottenham on Monday, they could be in the bottom three when they kick off at home to Nottingham Forest in what is very much a ‘six-point’ game.Leicester City were another side to sack their coach on Sunday, with Graham Rodgers shown the door after four defeats in five games dragged them into the bottom three and the club are now being linked a move for Graham Potter.
