What is the minimum that Mourinho, Guardiola, Wenger, Klopp

Minimum required:

Guardiola - Title challenge, CL challenge, and a trophy. Ideally they'd want to win both major titles (CL and PL) or win one and come close to the other. I think they'd still keep Pep for mounting a title challenge without finishing 1st and winning a domestic trophy of some sort, even if it would be seen as a so so season. His reputation would keep him in the job. Not sure a trophyless season would.

Jose - Same as for Pep but with more emphasis on title challenge and less on a trophy, after doing a double last season. He definitely needs to be seen as if he's making strides towards winning the league in the very near future. After last season he'd have a bit of leeway and would be kept in a job for going trophyless while maintaining a title challenge (basically doing what Spurs did).

Wenger - Same as Jose. Has to challenge for the title and at least come close to winning it if he doesn't, and when I say come close, the performance levels have to improve. They need to go on formidable runs and be hard to beat. Would be a sign of progress. Doing that even without winning a trophy should keep him in the job. Anything less and the fans wouldn't accept it anymore and he'd be forced into walking.

Conte - Would need to challenge in the big competitions. Always hard to tell how much Abramovich would settle for. I'd guess after last season Conte could get away with a top 4 finish without winning anything, but you never know. Ancelotti was sacked for achieving the same.

Klopp - Would need to repeat last season at a minimum. Winning some silverware should also be on the agenda but perhaps not essential to him staying put.

Poch - The most leeway out of all of them. Frankly if he finishes top 4 it will be a miraculous job by him. Given the circumstances of playing at Wembley and a lack of transfer activity he should be able to get away with a 5th or 6th place finish. Any ire from fans would be more directed at Levy than Poch. However failure in the league should lead to higher cup expectancy.

Not the end of the world if Klopp misses out on top 4 but really needs to have some cup runs to keep us happy.

And keep Coutinho?

I'd make him stay for this season, he's a decent pro so shouldn't be too much temper tantrums. Promise him a move next summer. Top four without him? Not much chance IMHO. Then again, you would get silly money and 3 weeks to spend it.

Coutinhos a quiet fella, yeah maybe Klopp is the right manager to change his mind, depends on the agent though. Craig Bellamy was saying the other night Coutino is the perfect replacement for Iniesta in a years time, fingerscrossed thats what happens.

And good luck to us trying to spend all that money in the next few weeks. Other clubs will be doing what we're doing to Barca

Thanx man. Lots of hard work. A computer science degree. SW development and the like. 

I edited the post above. Is it solely the BBC Prediction league or is the IMDb classic league still running too?

I'd say Mourinho, Conte and Guardiola have to make the top 4 and may survive even if they don't, depending on what goes on behind the scenes. Wenger will be fine as long as they make top 6 - the man's delivered three trophies in 4 years for God's sake. Klopp and Pochettino will survive as long as they're not in relegation trouble.
