Vincent Kompany’s Burnley may be waltzing to the Championship title, but the Belgian falls short to reported former Leeds United target Carlos Corberan when it comes to the best performing manager in the second tier.
The swift turnaround of managers in the Championship this season means there have been 38 different permanent bosses in the dugouts this term, with Rob Edwards and Alex Neil having taken charge of two clubs. And despite the Clarets being seven points clear at the summit and 17 points clear of third, it is the highly sought after Corberan who has actually picked up the most points per game in the matches they have overseen.
Corberan’s West Brom have taken 30 points from the 13 games he has been in charge, giving him a points per game average of 2.31 - the best in the division. Kompany’s 65 points from 29 games puts him on 2.24.
