It's long been my belief that Lord Sugar has a bias against firing team leaders. In this series he's already fired 3 of 5, and he was disinclined to make it 4 of 6. So he was eager to fire anyone but Francesca.
I was very surprised when he fired Rebecca, though. She has been the best seller on at least two tasks. She was also very active in this one: she'd had ideas which the team leader had followed, so she was hardly guilty of flying under the radar or of being someone no-one listened to. He really didn't have much rationale other than "instinct". (Personally I don't think he should have fired Zee last week, and had he not done so he could have fired the team leader this week.)”

The way he highlighted what he thought were Rebecca's failings on the task before warning Francesca that she'd be fired if she brought back the wrong people led me to believe he meant Rebecca... Rebecca's comments on You're Fired about Francesca having said she wouldn't bring her back add weight to that.
