Next Manager?

I get the Mourinho not getting the best out of these players, but these players don't fit into his meteorology or style of play.

Any manager that is due to come in will have to sell and buy a lot more than three players in key positions.

I dont think you can compare Chelsea to spurs, that Chelsea squad still had players that knew how to win titles and cups, experience and cohesion. This current mob have done nothing to suggest that they would replicate anything close to that.

Too simple to put it on Mourinho and not the players, they are not winners or fighters.
This.

 
I don't think so, yes Jose turned them into league winners in a season, but the building had begun years earlier. Jose just added the last few pieces and gave them the belief.

Yeah, but not that many years earlier, Harding put a load of money in, before that they were a perennial bottom half club, when I was in school there was literally one Chelsea fan.

I may be doing his predecessor a disservice, but I'd put the change as happening when Hoddle was in charge and they signed Gullit.
 
Really is infuriating to see how Chavski started picking up silverware as soon as they broke into Top 6 (much like how Goons kept on winning the FA Cup even when they ceased to be contenders for PL title) yet even during those halcyon days when Pochettino had us winning up more points than anybody else we still couldn’t end that trophy famine :(

Fckukin' A, hombre.

Does heaven wait
All heavenly
Over the next horizon

Look at us now (we're driving)
Some things hurt more
Much more than cars and girls

THink the ESL thing makes it more likely we appoint a 'name' as manager to succeed Jose, and less likely someone like Potter

Not sure that's right though
 
Nagelsmann and Rodgers might be more gettable with the ESL coming and them being on the outside at their current clubs. Levy is very deliberate - I'm sure he knows who he wants
 
Any views on Allegri? I find it difficult to judge him given he was at the dominant club in Italy, which means you do need to handicap his success a bit
 
I'd be very happy with any of Nagelsmann, ten Hag, (the two we should have gone for post-Poch), Potter or Parker.

I'm not keen on Rodgers (likeability is important to me and we need a Mourinho antidote) or Allegri (too defensive)

I'd be pleased with some combo of King, Mason and Powell till the end of the season.
