BBC Sport analysis, including comment from former manager Tony Pulis, examines historical patterns of sackings around international breaks and concludes changes are more likely to land in November than during the September pause, even as pressure mounts on Arbeloa and Carrick.
“In my time, the October/November international breaks, the pause just after the Christmas period, and then early March would be the three sticking points for any manager who was struggling with results.”
