Bookies name their Pellegrini sacking price

|

West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini remains on reasonably safe ground with the bookies.

The nation;s odds makers have all sorts of books running on virtually everything affected in football and Sky Bet see him as a 5/1 bet to be the next Premier League manager to be fired.

Regular publiicty that he is safe for now will of course have shaped their views but he remains behind the likes of  Arsenal’s Unai Emery and Man United’s Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the Premier League sack race.

The Gunners chief is priced at 5/4 for the bullet whilst Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhutti is at 2/1 Solsjkaer at 3/1 and our man at fives, in front of Marco Silva at eights.
