The bigger question than any incoming manager for Chelsea is how you can spend £538 million in the last two transfer windows yet still be without an adequate goalkeeper, natural defensive 6 and focal point number 9. Staggering. Actually football has never seen anything like it. Premier League Panel

There was alarm at Potter’s tactics against Aston Villa, with two centre backs (Chalobah & Badiashile) on the bench. (

Okay, Potter's been sacked. Fine. But how do we sign new players going forward? 'Cause we were told Potter has been the one making those calls to convince players to join our project.

Morning lads. I sniffed rhe air around me and it was Potter-less.

It's going to be a beautiful week.

They didn’t even allow him to do preseason first.

So sad. Where is the place of fair chances?

He doesn't even know his players well enough.

Boehly sacked a gem

popizaino:


Apuuuu.


Advising Chelsea to have give Sarri more years to compound to woes then will always leave a question mark on what you claim to know early and pls stop getting unnecessary hard-on,on this Graham potter's matters,my choice for the club is well documented on this thread and that is Mauricio Pochettino.


I only supported who my club decided to hire and his sack his justifiable even if Potter turned out to be a mistake.

Sarri was 100% better than Potter. Stats don't lie

I hail thee back dear brethren.

I must thank our Pontiff, his Eminent Grace, Otemic Pope A001 whose intercessions to our holy father Otem Atum surely made this possible.

- He is a respected legend in the club and football world.

Lampard is also a respected legend in Chelsea but couldn't cope with the pressure that came with managing in a big club. I believe Zidane really understands football as a player and coach.

I feel he'd become a great manager in the coming years. Xavi is another manager that really understands football as a player and coach and could grow to become a great manager in the future as well.

AVB and Scolari did not make it past their first season with Chelsea greatest players of all time

Lampard qualified for UCL in first season with academy boys and made FA Cup final

The difference is clear

What messed Lampard up was trying to fit in many expensive players with low talent that unbalanced the team, such as Havertz, Ziyech and Werner. Mostly players the club signed for him that weren't up to par

And what did Everton do to him that he nearly sent them to relegation? Always stanning mediocrity!

I don't think the players were that poor. Tuchel won trophies with exactly the same players.

A good coach can also win trophies with the current crop of players we've. It's all about good tactics and setting up the team to play to the players' strengths.

This is a wrong comparison. First and foremost, Real Madrid already had a formidable and world class players assembled together by mourhino and Ancelotti in every position compared to Chelsea that relied on academy players due to transfer ban and then went ahead to sign some promising players the following season.

How is it a wrong comparison? Did Tuchel sign new players when he joined Chelsea? Didn't he win UCL, Super Cup, Club World Cup, and entered some other finals with the same set of players that Lampard couldn't manage successfully?

Lol. Michael, wetin you know say be agnostic?

When you woke up in the morning, and na to hate A001 you dey think of and pass your toxic, dry joke about me early in the morning.

The same unfortunate soul wished me an untimely death on this forum even though I never wished him harm first.

I know that your evil wish for me don become a curse in your life. Any evil you wish me returns tensfold to you and your family.

A001:

a curse is a spoken word intended to bring harm to someone who wronged u
A curse requires metaphysical forces to bring this spoken word into effect
That means u believe in the metaphysical?

If I believe in the metaphysical, I won't be an agnostic.

Some wishes do come to pass, and it has nothing to do with metaphysics. I prefer to use the term "unexplained science".

Lampard finished top 4 with academy boys and then took the boys to round of 16 the following season before been sacked. I am not saying Zidane is bad but he is overrated for now due to the team he achieved with.

swiz123:

Same thing it did to Benitez and Ancelotti

Everton main problem is lack of striker cos if you check this season most of their games are tight games ending in draw or single goal defeats

Those dreaming of Zidane to Chelsea should keep sleeping, Boehly will never higher a manager like Zidane and Zidane won't go to Chelsea, the only EPL Zidane would even join could be man city after Pep leaves.

If Levy would just humble himself and ask Pochettino to return to Tottenham, he would stop been an option of Chelsea. Safe to say those who failed after Tuchel proved just how good he was at Dortmund and PSG, hope that won't be the case for Chelsea.

With the players Chelsea have Enrique looks like the better fit compared to Nagelsmann, we don't want some dude coming, waiting and wanting the team to gel. Taking Enrique on a 2year contract is better than getting Na-gels-mann.

Zidane is overrated? Keep that thought in your head make person no slap your mouth shut in reality
