Well my friend what can I sayI'm genuinely quite worried about this, I just hope that Chelsea's owners are happy to give Tuchel a bit of time to get his team to gel after a massive and disjointed transfer window.
Hasn't Potter got a buyout? I don't think there is much the board can do. From the outside looking in with the way this has unfolded, I suspect an Agreement In principal was reached with Potter prior to Tuchel's sacking. Only thing Chelsea had to do then was to sack Tuchel and trigger the buyout.Apparently they’ve approached Brighton to ask permission to open talks, as well as Poch or Zidane - given how difficult we made it for Newcastle to get Ashworth, hopefully we’ll do the same and the others may turn out to be an easier and cheaper option.
Potter still has a long contract with us.
Chelsea model works. It brought them success after success for years. Doesn't have anything to do with being properly run or not. They know when to move on and bring new blood.Do you think this? You must really believe all other clubs are properly and perfectly run except United, don't you?
We have no idea how well chelsea are run these days. There are basically none left from Roman's regime.Chelsea are too well-run to throw away the season with a Rangnick.
Is Jupiter bigger than a duck?Maybe so, and before they spent hundreds of millions. An Incompetent board maybe?
By all accounts the rock set in on the pre season tour to the states. You could sense that there were tensions and a lot of head scratching from the players as early as the Everton game.Bonkers indeed. Tuchel got a lot of players he wanted, and now, they sack him 6 games in. He should have been sacked if it continued like this for a while, but it's clearly too early for the sack.
Well, hope whoever succeeds him does a worse job. One less contender for that top 4 spot.
Yeah, that was kind of my point sorry. Talks consistency but doesn't do it himself.Then he isn't consistent is he? The hypocritical virtue signalling cnut. Genuinely can't stand the cnut.
I was yeah. Easy to talk about sticking with managers long term, not so easy to do when it's your clubs position on the line.Fair.
aged wellAbout 0.0% chance they fire the coach who brought them back into the top 4 and won them the championship league, 6 weeks into the new season after spending a gazillion pounds on players, who haven't even all started a single game yet
was looking for that oneaged well
This happening would not surprise me one bit. And then the football world will again be clambering to talk about how good a coach Rodgers is, only for him to have them progressively sink to relegation form over the succeeding seasons.Chelsea have won both of their two CLs using interim managers, or ones come in mid-season after the previous was fired. The board have a clear strategy.
I'm fully expecting Brendan Rodgers to win Chelsea's third CL this season.
So, first he had to put his back answering the questions about the war in Ukraine for a few months when their previous board went into hiding and after the new board came in he had to explain why a 37-year old striker might not be such a good idea.Tweet

Chelsea are so screwed.
Spot on.It's not the fact that sacked him but more that they brought in new players, then sack him. Why didn't they sack him before he approved transfer of new players.
Just fecking weird this Chelsea FC
Lets not forget they couldn't get ANY of his first choice targets. Not even second choice really.Utter madness. They gave him well over £250 millions to spend on transfers, inferring they had confidence in him and then 6/7 games in they stack him.
Tuchal has shown himself to be a particularly capable manager.
Madness....
To be honest Ronaldo is better than Auba who they panic bought anywaySo, first he had to put his back answering the questions about the war in Ukraine for a few months when their previous board went into hiding and after the new board came in he had to explain why a 37-year old striker might not be such a good idea.
Maybe he got fed up and said Boehly to feck himself in retrospect. And yeah, they might be screwed.
Marco Rose is close to getting appointedI wonder if he might end up replacing Tedesco (also sacked today) at RBL.
