It's not as bad as it sounds. Sometimes it's a blessing in disguise. Top notch coaches have very water tight contracts. It's very expensive to fire them. Take Mourinho for example. When he was fired [3 years before the expiry of his contract], he was paid £10m and he started getting job offers immediately. Claudio Ranieri was also paid his whole salary for the remaining three years in his contract when he was fired [
Ranieri's Pay Day]
Ancelotti also has a very water tight contract. It will be a huge pay day the day he is fired. Probably that is why he hasn't been fired yet!

Ohhh, I see...In this case I think it is their reputation that is usually at stake...But how come they get better jobs when they are fired? Benitez proceeded to Inter Milan after running down Liverpool!!!
@Magigi - Your "friend" Benitez has made himself 6.5 million pounds [Approx. Kshs. 800m] in 6 months for being
fired!!! That's more than any manager in the EPL will make the whole of this year [in salaries]. But as you correctly pointed out, it's all about reputation - to those who care.
