The opening weeks of the season have indicated that managers are under more pressure than ever.
There have already been two sackings and managerial changes at three different clubs in the Premier League, and keeping hold of a job in the dugout does not appear to be much easier on the continent.
Nice boss Lucien Favre, who only took the role over the summer, has come under fire after a poor start to Ligue 1, and former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has been strongly linked as a potential replacement.
