No you are not "rite". That is a ridiculous straw man argument!  How would anyone in their right mind want him sacked if we got past the fifth placed South American team and got out of our group.

The reason people don't like him is that none of those things are remotely likely to happen.

BTW: straw man argument:

A straw man is a common form of argument and is an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent.
