Mauricio Pochettino is 6/1 joint favourite to be the next England manager
Mauricio Pochettino is the 6/1 joint favourite to be the next manager of the England national team.
The FA may well be looking for a new manager in the near future with England really struggling under Gareth Southgate.
Bookmakers have already priced up who Southgate's replacement will be, with four contenders sharing the favouritism.
| Next England Manager | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Mauricio Pochettino | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Graham Potter | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Eddie Howe | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Steven Gerrard | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Sean Dyche | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Former Burnley manager Sean Dyche is the only one in the front contenders who is currently not in a job, although Pochettino is expected to leave PSG.
This may help the FA's decision with the thought of spending compensation money probably a tough one for their executives.
Gareth Southgate has had a tough time recently including an embarrassing 4-0 home defeat to Hungary on Tuesday night
Gareth Southgate is under increasing pressure as England manager after a tough international break ended with his team losing 4-0 to Hungary.
The four game international break saw England lose twice to Hungary, with draws against Germany and Italy in the middle of those fixtures.
| Gareth Southgate Betting Specials | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Southgate to leave his role before the 2022 World Cup | 5/2 | 28.6% |
| England to lose their next 2 Nations League games | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| England to lose or draw their 3 World Cup Group games | 16/1 | 5.9% |
| England to lose their 3 World Cup Group games | 100/1 | 1.0% |
A lot of the specials that are available are pretty negative when it comes to the end of Southgate's reign, with a lot of England fans already calling for him to be sacked.
Bookies give just a 1% chance that England have a stinker at the World Cup though and lose all three fixtures against Iran, USA and Wales respectively.
A whole host of English managers are at the top of the betting market for the England job
As we showed earlier, it's four managers that tie the betting market to become the next England manager.
Three of those joint favourites are English, with Graham Potter, Eddie Howe and Steven Gerrard all also 6/1 for the big job.
With four managers having a joint probability of 14.3% according to bookies, it shows there's no outright man for the role.
Gareth Southgate features in the betting market to be the first English manager to win the Premier League, as we reported last month.
