Sergio Francisco is going through a critical moment in his career leading Real Sociedad. The coach, who took over from Imanol Alguacil, has failed to find the right path in his debut on the Anoeta bench, and there are already talks about his continuity being at risk.

The first league matches have been a torment for Sergio Francisco. With just two draws and three losses, the team from San Sebastian has only obtained two points out of fifteen possible, sinking into the lower zone of the table.

The start has set off all alarms in San Sebastián, and Sergio Francisco's position is under immense pressure. The results are not favorable, and the txuri-urdin side finds itself in the relegation positions, a scenario few expected at the start of the season.

Sergio Francisco's attempted playing style also fails to come together. Real Sociedad appears insecure in defense, lacking creativity in midfield, and with a worrying lack of goals in attack, aspects that have upset the fans.

Sergio Francisco, under scrutiny

The board is aware of this situation and knows that Sergio Francisco's future will be decided in the upcoming matches. With the immediate schedule, patience is running out, and the coach's fate hangs on the next two games.

The first will be at Anoeta against Mallorca, a direct clash to gain confidence and, above all, points. For Sergio Francisco, that match becomes a real final, as a misstep would leave his position in an almost untenable situation.

On the other hand, the visit to Barcelona represents another huge challenge for Sergio Francisco. Facing one of the giants of LaLiga in such a tense moment could be an excessively tough test, yet also an unexpected opportunity for redemption.

In the locker room, the team attempts to support Sergio Francisco, although the feelings are not the best. The lack of victories has raised doubts, and media pressure doesn't help the daily life of a group that needs to react as soon as possible.

Replacing Imanol Alguacil was no easy task, and Sergio Francisco knew it. However, few imagined that the fall would be so steep and that Real Sociedad would face problems so early in the season.

The fans, on their part, are torn between patience and demands. While some call for more time for Sergio Francisco to implement his ideas, others are already demanding an immediate change before the situation worsens further.

All signs point to the fact that the next two matchdays will determine the coach's fate. If he fails to steer the ship back on course against Mallorca and puts up a fight in the city of Barcelona, Sergio Francisco could become the first coach sacked in LaLiga.
