Former Leeds United owner Massimo Cellino has continued his ruthless streak, sacking his second manager since taking over at Brescia in August.

Football Italia reported that Cellino has fired Pasquale Marino after a poor series of results for the Serie B side.

But as with Cellino, it is never simple.

The controversial owner has made a surprise appointment… the man he fired in October, re-hiring Roberto Boscaglia.

A look at the table indicates why Cellino feels Brescia need a shake up.

The side sit in 17th place, a number he feels is notoriously unlucky, and are just one point clear of the relegation zone.

Cellino sacked six managers during his time in charge at Leeds United, having arrived with a reputation of being trigger happy from his time at Cagliari.

He has continued his impatient streak at Brescia, having left Leeds last summer.

Leeds fans are currently expressing their frustrations at the club’s lack of progress in the transfer market under new owner Andrea Radrizzani, but the Whites are a far calmer club without the uncertainty and constant change brought about during the Cellino era.
