Same here.
I hope he shows some good flashes so his reputation isn't trashed, then the cess pit that is Chelsea destroys itself.
Two points for me:
I.
He's always said he won't manage Barca because he loves Espanyol.
So he either doesn't have the kind of affinity for us that he has made out - which if so, fine, but he has to move to "really good manager" status in our history rather than "one of us"*
OR
He's realised that as lovely as that principle is, football is too cut throat for that.
II. His managerial reputation is all built upon taking teams from a poor position and punching above their weight. PSG is the exception - he didn't improve PSG.
The Chelsea squad has a lot of talent, but is really poorly balanced. It could easily go wrong if some ego's don't like the lack of game time.
Short term, a 6 year old would be able to get Chelsea playing better than they currently are.
I actually think he's taken the easy option.
*Compare with the charity match the other day with Redknapp, Defoe, Keane, Hudd, Sandro, Chimbonda, Rose etc being involved.
