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