Graham Potter is bookies’ favourite to be next SACKED Premier League manager after Chelsea loss

Chelsea boss Graham Potter is the bookmakers’ favorite to be the next sacked Premier League manager, with David Moyes and Gary O’Neil also in jeopardy.

The sack race is heating up as we head into the closing stages of the 2022-23 season with several managers finding themselves under pressure after a run of poor form.

However, it is the Blues coach who is under scrutiny after three consecutive defeats.

Potter, who was appointed Chelsea manager only in September to replace Thomas Tuchel, has 4/11 odds of being sacked next.

Oliver Skipp and Harry Kane scored as Tottenham inflicted another defeat on Chelsea, who saw their winless run stretch to six games.

Potter is closely watched by West Ham boss Moyes, who has 10/3 odds of losing his job via Paddy Power.

He will need to work his magic to achieve the form that saw his team finish seventh last season.

They are currently ranked 16th and could face a real dogfight to survive.

However, the Hammers manager charted a course back from the brink after their crucial win over Nottingham Forest.

West Ham picked up just their second win in 12 Premier League games with a 4-0 thrashing.

January signing Danny Ings scored twice, his first goals for the club, before Declan Rice and Michail Antonio helped lift West Ham out of the relegation zone.

The only drawback were injuries to right-back Vladimir Coufal and goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, who had to go out, while Brazilian midfielder Lucas Paquetá suffered another blow to the shoulder.

Elsewhere, Bournemouth manager O’Neil also finds himself under fire at 8/1 odds of being the next Premier League boss sacked.

The Cherries are currently in the relegation zone, sitting in 19th place with the same number of points as Everton.

Manchester City bested his side with a 4-1 thrashing at the Vitality Stadium.

O’Neil felt that Bournemouth gave a good account of themselves but were undone by individual mistakes that proved costly.

“Not passing them twice in our half would have been nice,” O’Neil said. ‘I thought the acting was decent. We got penalized for a couple of mistakes.

‘I thought we were on the front foot. Apart from the score, I thought it was awkward for Man City.

‘I thought we did very well, but we got hit hard for a couple of mistakes. We do not make the most of our opportunities. There was a lot to be positive about.

Forest is also far from safe at 13th and boss Steve Cooper finds himself at 12/1 odds of being fired.

“It’s really disappointing,” he said after his team’s loss to West Ham. “I know West Ham had a lot of set pieces, but we never felt in great danger of conceding a goal.

‘I think we started the second half well and gained momentum, you could feel the tension in the stadium.

‘Then we went down 1-0 down to a disappointing goal, but what happened between the first and third goals was hard to fathom and unacceptable in many ways.

“The game was taken from us and we have no one to blame but ourselves. For sure we have to go back to the training ground and have an adult conversation with the players about what happened.”
