Arbelova is two games away from being fired/ the former Real coach has only two games left

English media reported that Fulham managers told Alvaro Arbeloa that his only chance to stay in this club is to win the next two games.

According to Sports Three, Alvaro Arbeloa's critical days in the English Premier League have started much earlier than expected, and the Spanish coach of Fulham has only two matches to save his place on the bench of this London team due to the disappointing results.

On the 8th of June last, Fulham managers announced Arbeloa as the replacement of Marco Silva. The Portuguese coach who went to Benfica and replaced the former defender of Real Madrid. As a club rooted in the English capital, Fulham had bigger dreams than survival this season, but three months into the campaign they have only managed two wins, both in the League Cup. Arbelova's career in the Premier League has been very bitter with two draws and four defeats, and this team has settled at the bottom of the standings with two points. For this reason, the next two matches against newly promoted Hull City at home and then Coventry are life and death for Arbeloa.

Former Brentford and Tottenham head coach Thomas Frank has been mentioned in the media as a possible replacement for Arbeloa. Things became more difficult for the Spaniard when the FA fined him £25,000 for protesting the refereeing of the match against Manchester United, and there were rumors of players' displeasure in the dressing room and a lack of understanding of his tactics.

However, Arbelova tried to keep her composure at today's press conference, saying, "Do I pay attention to the rumors? No, all my focus is on tomorrow's match, my players and the team. This is the most important issue. It's not about me personally, it's about the interests of the club and the fans, and I hope our good game will finally end. For me, this week was like the previous weeks with hard training."

It is interesting that Fulham offers a higher quality than its position during the games. Reviews show that if Premier League games were counted up to the 75th minute, Fulham would currently be in 10th place in the table, but Arbeloa's men lose their focus in the final 15 minutes and have already conceded seven crucial points in these minutes. They have conceded after 75 minutes in four matches, which resulted in a defeat against Sunderland, a comeback against Crystal Palace, a draw against Manchester United and a last-minute defeat against Ipswich Town.

These sudden drops, along with Arbela's failed substitutions, have exhausted the patience of London fans. In particular, his decision against United to add Joakim Andersen and switch to three central defenses, as well as making five simultaneous substitutions against Ipswich when his team was 1-0 up, became his Achilles heel.

Arbelova's past statements, which said that he does not feel pressure because he has played and coached in Real Madrid as the best club in the world, have angered the fans.
