FC Copenhagen's Ariël Jacobs says he won’t be surprised if he, as bookmakers suggest, becomes the first Superliga coach to be fired this season. Last year’s league champions have yet to win a match, and find themselves in dead last. Jacobs, a Belgian, said he had been given no indication that he was in imminent danger of being fired, but realised that winning was a requirement. “That’s the reality in football.” Despite the disastrous start, Jacobs still felt his club was the league’s strongest – on paper. “But there’s a difference between thinking something and showing it on the pitch,” he acknowledged. – BT
