1) Paul Lambert (Aston Villa)

Although Aston Villa ended their goal drought with a strike against Chelsea, it was another defeat that leaves Paul Lambert’s side in trouble and the manager under huge pressure after a dismal campaign.

2) Nigel Pearson (Leicester City)

Although Leicester have moved to deny rumours that Nigel Pearson had been sacked, the Foxes must be considering their manager’s future as they remain rock bottom of the Premier League and certainties for relegation.

3) Roberto Martinez (Everton)

After such a great start last season, Everton must now be considering the future of Roberto Martinez after a far worse second campaign under the former Wigan boss, whose side look poor defensively and lacking inspiration.

4) Gus Poyet (Sunderland)

He may have saved Sunderland from relegation last season, but Gus Poyet does not look certain of doing so this season, and could be under increasing pressure after failing to sufficiently take the club forward this term after spending large amounts on new signings.

5) Steve Bruce (Hull City)

Recently linked with a switch to Championship side Fulham, it may be that Steve Bruce’s time at Hull City is coming to an end after a poor season this term, in which relegation looks all the more likely.
