The managers who won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Championship and Champions League all lost their jobs this season. Says it all about how difficult football management is these days.

He was pretty near to getting the sack in his first few years but they stuck with him and the rest is history. There's something to be said for constancy.

Pelligrini next then, apparently, and Mourinho back at Chelsea.
