We have ranked all this season's Premier League managers. Mikel Arteta is not for shifting.
Managed to pull off the exceedingly difficult task of being a promoted manager sacked outrageously early in the season yet elicited minimal sympathy. Clearly a load of stuff going on behind the scenes, but if you’re going to be issuing ‘back me or sack me’ ultimatums in the wake of 9-0 defeats you need to be really damn sure of your footing.
It was clearly premature and has had the knock-on effect of bollocksing Brighton about which is annoying, but it wasn’t a good start to the season by any reasonable measure. Chelsea had really only played truly convincingly well in one game, against Spurs, and they didn’t actually win. Defeats at Southampton, Leeds and Dinamo Zagreb are not the sort of thing to keep a manager at Chelsea for long.
Klopp’s failure to address that particular area of concern in the summer was a significant error and, while he doesn’t yet appear in imminent danger of the old tin tack, he couldn’t really complain if it happens. Four points from the last two games before the World Cup, against Spurs and Southampton, looks an absolute minimum.
