Aragonés Job Depending On Kiev Win?

Following Spain's marvellous march to glory at the European Championships this summer Luis Aragonés was hailed as one of the best managers in Europe.

With that tag he decided, somewhat surprisingly, to move to Turkey and coach Fenerbahce, where so far he has found life rather difficult. The 70 year old started the season with a 1-0 loss to Gaziantepspor and having played five matches in the league they currently sit 10th, having won just two and lost the other three.

In the Champions League Fenerbahce opened with a 3-1 loss away at Porto and now it is being reported in the Turkish newspaper 'Sabah' that if they fail to beat Dynamo Kiev tonight the manager could be out.

Consolation for Aragonés will come in the form of his sides impressive home record in the competition though which currently stands at 14 games unbeaten, stretching back to December 2004. Coupled with that their opponents have drawn one and lost seven of their last group games in this competition and are massive underdogs in Turkey on Tuesday night.
