Nuno is like the way less successful version of Mourinho or Conte...always seems to be some drama after a couple years in charge

Well, after Nuno was berated on the sidelines last year, it can't exactly be a surprise that there is a rift there? Nuno has done a fantastic job with Forest to get them where they are. Apparently, the plan is to sack him and appoint Postecoglou...things could be interesting!

Aaron Wan Bissaka is terrible.

I'd be hauling him off the field right now.

easily the frontfrunner for the first one to be sacked. Nuno has made it interesting though.

Either way, won't be long before the Dyche bat signal is activated.

I know England were in the dumps at that time, but it's still hard to believe he really was the England manager for about 12 seconds.

Honestly they need to let Iron Maiden manage the team, surely can't be worse, and maybe they can do a show after every game to lift the fans spirits.

Potter clearly has a couple more (awful) games in him for a couple of reasons, though. First, that takes them to the international break. Second, it means the new manager bounce just in time for their cup final.

Every year, a team or two looks brutal in this opening stretch, and this has to be the year they go down. Somehow, they always manage to pull out of the nosedive and make it to safety, but West Ham looks so bad!
