2/1 (F) Ian Greaves - Pressure mounts on beleaguered Aston Villa manager Ian Greaves. With Champions league progress now looking less likely and a hovering just 2 points above relegation the homes fans are calling for the head of Greaves. Protests have been arranged for outside the ground at their next home game. Their weak effort in Paris was met by a resounding torrent of abuse at Greaves after the game. Can the EFL cup save Greaves? With recent posts of Greaves playing days is he pondering a return to action to help the Villa improve?
4/1 Simon Marsh - Pressure on the Atletico Madrid boss have eased a little following qualification into the quarter finals of the Champions League and a win in the league. The league table still reads disgustingly bad but the gap back to the top-8 is reduced. Marsh has made tweaks in the transfer market and at least working hard off the field.
4/1 Niall Grimes - Dortmund are becoming marooned in the relegation zone and league points are desperately needed. A home tie against Rennes should see Dortmund reach the semi-finals of the EFL cup which at present is giving some relief to the clubs issues.
5/1 Jamie Smith - Southampton are improving in the league with three straight wins now giving them a pathway into the top-8. However. their Champions League campaign has been a ended with 4 defeats. Smith must find a way of the league form continuing.
8/1 Andy Banks - With no further news from HQ it looks like Banks may have escaped punishment and his bowel movements may improve as a result.
8/1 Ryan Field - Blackburn Rovers league position has improved and they still appear in a decent position to advance in the DPT cup
8/1 Thomas Edvarsen - A poor week has done Edvarsen no favors
9/1 Jon Banks - Nothing positive for Bayern Munich as both league and Champions League positions weaken and Banks odds shorten despite his media posts insisting the Bayern board are backing the long-term approach.
10/1 Peter Hayward - 4 straight league defeats sees Brighton becoming detached at the wrong end of the league. A team that is used to finishing much higher in the league appears to steadily be worsening.
10/1 Arron Burrows - Their DPT hopes are all but over now so it is a case of attaining league survival. At present Rangers are struggling with only 1 victory.
11/1 GarySean Wilson - Winless in five games in the league Wilson's Inter Milan are struggling for form. Champions league future is at risk and EFL cup quarter finals provides the distraction from complete failure.
