Not the Coach or Manager

About this episode

The episode discusses the sacking of Ruben Amorim by Manchester United and the implications for other managers in the league.

After a long hiatus, we’re joined by special guest Brendan Heasley to break down the sacking of Ruben Amorim by Manchester United. We dig into how it all unraveled so quickly, what went wrong, and who could be next to take the hottest seat in English football. From there, we look around the league to ask: who’s the next manager under real pressure? Finally, we turn our attention forward to a slate of cracking midweek fixtures that could have major implications across the table. Big decisions, bigger questions, and no shortage of drama — you won’t want to miss this one.
