Pressure mounts on EFL managers as Norwich struggles early in the season

Norwich City, under coach Philippe Clement, currently sits in 21st place in the Championship after suffering five consecutive league defeats. Their poor form mirrors last season's struggles, where they narrowly avoided a manager change. Clement's squad is further impacted by the injury of striker Mohamed Toure, who scored five goals before his shoulder injury. Norwich’s next challenge is an away match against Charlton Athletic on Saturday, a team also seeking to find form after failing to win in eight matches. Other managers facing scrutiny include Henrik Pedersen of Sheffield Wednesday and Steve Evans of Bristol Rovers, amid a general trend of increased pressure in the EFL as several managers have been dismissed recently.
