Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard has just two games left to keep his spot. After the opening season of the English Premier League, one of the worst in club history.
Gerrard’s side lost 2-0 to Chelsea at Villa Park on Sunday (Oct 16) with two goals from Mason Mount to drop them to 16th in the table. 9 points from 10 matches, only 1 point above the relegation zone
According to the “Birmingham Mail” local media, the former Liverpool captain has less than a week to prove his skills. It starts with visiting Fulham on Thursday 21 October and welcoming Brentford on Sunday 23 October.
Consider the odds of losing your job as Gerrard, who has been in charge for 11 months since joining from Rangers, replaces Dean Smith.
With Smith sacked in November 2021, Villa sits 16th in the table two points above the relegation zone, becoming an omen. For the future of the 42-year-old Big Boss, who has been working for almost a year.
“Sing the pride” started the season second worst only in the Premier League era after the 2015-16 season, which ended with a fall to the Championship, collecting only 4 points from 10 games.
