Watford have got rid of Quique Sanchez Flores
After a summer of turmoil (where Watford sacked the manager who'd got them promoted and brought in 15 new players), he's guided them to a comfortable campaign where they were never really in the relegation mix, and got them to the FA Cup SF.
A great achievement for a small fry club. Who do they think would do a better job? That they could actually get, like.
That was rumoured several weeks ago. The stupidity and over-ambition of club board members never ceases to amaze.
That comment is not limited to my local club - Everton have just done the same thing.
So, this season:
Advocaat - Sunderland (were 19th, finished 17th)
Rogers - Liverpool (were 10th, finished 8th)
Sherwood - Aston Villa (were 20th, finished 20th)
Monk - Swansea (were 16th, finished 11th)
Mourinho - Chelsea (were 15th, finished 9th)
McLaren - Newcastle (were 19th, finished 19th)
Garde - Aston Villa (were 20th, finished 20th: 3 managers in the season, no impact)
Martinez - Everton (12th)
Flores - Watford (13th)
Interesting perhaps that of the 9, 2 went down and one just survived and 5 of the other 6 ended up in mid-table.
