formerly known as ivan Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Disappointing season overall but thought they finished strongly enough for him to get a second season. If you ask me, Chelsea need to realise that it’s not every managers fault. They aren’t the club they were 10 years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 13 minutes ago, Barrs Court Red said: Lucky he wasn’t sacked sooner. 6 in the league. Runners up Carabo, semi finals FA Cup. Basket case of a club.

Kid in the Riot Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 13 minutes ago, petehinton said: Most overrated manager in world football currently imo. No way. Just a couple of really bad choices post-Spurs. PSG and Chelsea both basket cases with nutty owners. I mean PSG, a genuinely vile club from top to bottom, and Boehly at Chelsea is just a complete buffoon. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shauntaylor85 Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Crazy decision. Arsenal must be licking their lips, most secure and best run club with a future. Thought Chelsea would challenge next season with right summer business. Can definitely see the Man Utd deal for Poch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be surprised if he’s not United manager by Christmas to completely the trilogy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lew-T Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Surely he can’t go to Man United? After how bad it’s gone at PSG and Chelsea, he’d want to play safe with his next job… Man United is absolutely not a safe job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, he didn't get a say in recruitment, one of the main reasons he left. The two Sporting Directors have the control and any manager will have to accept that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinapig Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 31 minutes ago, Jerseybean said: Early names for his successor …..https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/crggxgqd2keo Largely a list of available managers plucked out of the air. According to Jacob Steinberg in The Guardian they want a young coach willing to toe the line so McKenna is the target. They don't think Amorim is a tactical fit and De Zerbi left Brighton for the same reason Poch left Chelsea. None of the others would accept not being in control either.

Lrrr Posted May 21 Report Share Posted May 21 Their transfer strategy meant it was always going to take time to gel, since half way point think they’ve been 5th in the form table, things were turning around and now more chaos. Whoever goes in will surely want their stamp on it but they’ve got players on 6/7 year contracts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he didn't - and that's the point. He wanted a different sort of player brought in. But transfers were outside his control. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
