Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal to come in November lads

No fear November...

Another difficult month came and went with October and Mafia FC were still seeking their upturn in form. If November would be the month for Odo's men it would need to start with a real underdog effort against league leaders, Liverpool:

A fourth defeat in five home league games and with Chelsea and Arsenal to come, things were starting to look ropey for the Premier League newcomers. It was time for questions to be asked over the managerial direction, but the players were quick to respond:

The most important response of course would be what they could do on the pitch at Stamford Bridge with a number of injury problems:

CP throws name into hat for Mafia FC manager position

Asked about his reported interest in the position held by embattled manager Odo, the midfielder replied "It'd be a dream opportunity. Odo is incompetent. Just look at how many league starts I have this season."

Odo's side is currently struggling and find themselves in the relegation zone.

Judgement Day at the Bridge

With rumors circling around the job security of head coach Odo ahead of a huge trip to Stamford Bridge, a good performance would no longer be enough, points were imperative.

Having thrown his name into the hat for his coach's job, CP might have been surprised to see his name on the team sheet for such an important game, Odo knew however that he would have to go with what he thought to be his strongest lineup regardless of the backstage politics.

With another lackluster performance, no points and no stand-out performances, was this curtains for Odo...?​

@Gambit: OK I know we lost but thank you to the people who rated me the highest out of everyone the pitch. I will look to pick up even more yellow cards as the season goes on

@TweetMafiaFC:
"What a disgrace, no idea how @Curry could miss that penalty. The blame for this loss falls solely on him."

Walking the tightrope...

WithIt may have come as quite a surprise to many as Odo led his team out at Smarks Park for a mid-November clash with Arsenal. With the dreaded vote of confidence from Ronald Smark Sr. having come and gone, when would his fate be sealed, or could he turn it around against the North London side?

Mid-week was not much better for Mafia FC as the media was swirling, Odo will have been relieved however that they turned their attention to his main stay in central midfield, criticizing Magic for recent performances:

It might only have been a point but it was a welcome point for struggling Mafia FC that finally gave themselves something to build on into the busy Christmas period, starting with a winnable trip to struggling Leicester City:

A big gamble from Odo that wouldn't pay off then as he dropped his number one, Lethal, in place of Rising. The outcome was not favorable, was he right to roll the dice?

The winless run extended then and no upturn in fortunes in sight, the decision by the mastermind behind Mafia FC to keep the faith in Odo was coming under real scrutinty as they geared up for another tough task away at Goodison Park.
