Ole has them in 7th despite injury problems and overall quality issues. They haven't been great, but they've won 5 of 6 matches overall since drawing Liverpool. Add in the fact that he's a club legend, and it would be a bit of a ruthless look to sack him now.

What may help them, right now, is that the only other big club looking for a manager is Bayern and Poch isn't the right fit (unless he wants to start learning German in a hurry like Pep did). The big month for Prem teams is about to start, and how it shakes out may give them the justification they need to change - or not change - as Poch will likely be available for a while. Unless a big Italian or Spanish side (read: Madrid) becomes available, he doesn't need to jump right away.
