Gary O’Neil is one of four Premier League managers at risk of being sacked if they do not win on Saturday

Wolves will consider Gary O’Neil’s future if they fail to beat Southampton on Saturday, talkSPORT understands.

O’Neil currently retains the support of the Molineux hierarchy despite a run of one win in 20 games dating back to last season.

But the board is aware that O’Neil has lost the trust of many supporters, putting his position in jeopardy.

On the other hand, victory for Wolves could spell trouble for Southampton’s Russell Martin.

talkSPORT understands that Martin also remains under pressure ahead of the crucial clash between 19th and 20th places in the Premier League.

Like us previously reportedMartin retains the support of sporting director Rasmus Ankersen, but Serbian billionaire owner Dragan Solak has become impatient with results.

That’s not the only top-flight clash involving two bosses whose futures are at stake – as West Ham takes it Everton.

Hammers manager Julen Lopetegui is facing serious questions after a poor start to the season and talkSPORT has been told that several senior stars do not fully agree with the Spaniard.

Toffees manager Sean Dyche is also being scrutinized by new owner Dan Friedkin.

Unemployed manager Sergio Conceicao, who was in charge Porto up to three league titles among eleven major honours, is probably on the radar of several English clubs.

Wolves have a history of hiring Portuguese coaches and have had great success with it Nuno Espirito Santo before replacing him with current Benfica boss Bruno Lage.

And talkSPORT host Simon Jordan can understand why O’Neil is most at risk, even if he rates the Englishman from his time at Bournemouth.

The first discussed a 5-3 defeat to Brentford in October Crystal Palace The owner was particularly brutal, saying: “I think this is probably one of the most despicable defensive performances I’ve ever seen from a Premier League club, that’s how bad it was.

“They were shocking on every level and Brentford could have scored 15 goals.

“For me, I looked at that performance and thought this is a manager who is going to lose his job.

“They were defensively reprehensible, they were absolutely shocking.”

That defeat came either side of 2-1 losses to title challengers Liverpool And Manchester cityand Wolves have since ended a five-match losing streak.

A draw against Brighton and Crystal Palace still leaves them bottom of the table after ten games, with three points.
