Who could replace Frank Lampard as Everton's next manager?
Only goal difference prevents Everton from being bottom of the Premier League after a 2-0 defeat to relegation rivals West Ham on Saturday saw them slip into the bottom three.
It was their 11th league defeat of a dismal season and things could get a lot worse for the Toffees as they host league leaders Arsenal next, followed by a trip to Anfield to contest the Merseyside derby a week later.
But who will be in charge? We take a look at the current bookies' five favourites.
Sean Dyche
The former Burnley manager has been out of work since he was unceremoniously sacked from Turf Moor towards the end of last season after 10 stellar years at the club.
The 51-year-old won two promotions with the Clarets and grabbed headlines in the 2017/18 season by finishing seventh - their highest league position since 1974 as they qualified for Europe for the first time since 1966.
Marcelo Bielsa
Another manager who has been waiting on the sidelines after being sacked last season, Bielsa guided Leeds to the Premier League for the first time in 16 years and finished ninth in their first season back.
As well as taking charge of the Whites, the Argentinian has proven ability at managing in pressure cooker environments having led both Marseille and Lazio.
Could he work his magic at Goodison Park?
David Moyes
This will be some story. Lampard’s last game as Everton boss might have been against the manager who ends up replacing him, as Moyes is among the favourites to return to the club where he made his name.
Under pressure at West Ham after a disappointing campaign at the London Stadium, the 59-year-old spent 11 years at Goodison Park before leaving in 2013 to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.
Nuno Espirito Santo
The former Wolves and Tottenham manager was reportedly in the running to replace Carlo Ancelotti as Everton manager before negotiations broke down, with Lampard appointed instead.
Nuno had apparently appealed to the club after his impeccable four years of development work at Molineux. But with the Toffees battling relegation, there are questions over whether he has the experience necessary to guide them to safety.
Wayne Rooney
The former Toffee star and boyhood fan is currently in charge of DC United in the US but could be persuaded to return to the UK and save his local club from relegation.
If a deal is signed in time, he could face Arsenal in his first match - the team he scored against on his debut to kick-start his glittering playing career.
