Southampton boss Mauricio Pellegrino insists he is not worried about being sacked even if the Saints lose to Watford on Sunday.
Southampton are currently fourth bottom of the table after a run of nine league games without a win, and are now out of the relegation places on goal difference alone.
Seven top-flight managers have lost their jobs since the start of the season but Pellegrino isn’t worried about becoming the eighth, even if his side fails to win at Vicarage Road this weekend.
“It is part of our job,” he said. “The biggest risk in football is to work in football. In football you need results, they are everything.
When asked if he had thought about losing his job, Pellegrino added: “I don’t think about that because it is part of our life. I try to do my best.
“Obviously in football there are three results possible. Everything can pass, and every week history can change. I understand the situation of the fans because we have the same feeling. We are responsible for our situation.”
Southampton suffered a 2-0 defeat to Watford at St Mary’s earlier in the season but Pellegrino believes his side are better equipped to face the Hornets this time round. READ MORE
