I wonder what Aubameyang is thinking. Speaking out about how much he is looking forward to working with Tuchel - and one short Croatia-vacation together, Tuchel is sacked.
as long as hes getting his wages paid (unlike at barca) I expect he will feel just fine about whoever comes in nextI wonder what Aubameyang is thinking. Speaking out about how much he is looking forward to working with Tuchel - and one short Croatia-vacation together, Tuchel is sacked.
You believe too much red top news. Discuss.I think Boehly is going to destroy Chelsea FC. From a scattergun transfer window of weird signings and no real planning, just getting what other teams are after.
To now sacking Tuchel after a few bad results.
Seems very volatile and not a good sign for the future.

I loved the guy but 7 months of bad results is a lifetime in football. Stop looking at it as just this season because it’s not.The sacking has come far too soon and it is pretty ridiculous but if he can get Potter in then it's the right decision in my opinion.
He didn’t fall out with Marina. She was a Roman employee, has probably got another job with Roman. Cech chose to leave as many top positions do when new owners join any business and there’s nothing to even suggest him and Tuchel fell out. Your post is full of opinion, let’s not get it confused with fact.If that’s true about Boehly then I would say it’s pretty concerning
He’s fallen out with Marina, Cech and Tuchel now in a few months. All have now left the club.
Do you think he’ll actually get a DoF?
Poor form has been dragging on since around around January. I thought then he would be lucky to see out the season.Yes but this is only what 4 maybe 6 bad results?
Roman would have given more time, this is a shocking decision. I don’t think many was expecting a sacking so soonSame as Roman did.
Won a shed load of trophies.
Top clubs mostly all operate like this now.
Widely reported Cech disagreed with Boehly in the market (as did Marina). They Lukaku move was one part of it. There was a definite clash.You believe too much red top news. Discuss.

Disagree with your post. If Chelsea spent the transfer window chasing players Tuchel didn't want, they'd have / should've fired him before the season started. They've opened up discussions with Potter now. This looks more scattergun and highly volatile, in my opinion.Disagree with opening post. Apparently the signings made were decided by the club not tuchel so they knew he was a goner.
Chelsea have a vision for a more collaborative approach and developing players. Neither of which tuchel was doing according to bbc.
If the owner does carry on with the abramovich approach to managers they will carry on being successful. Works for them. They have won alot more in the past decade than we have.
You know this summer he signed Slolina, Chukwuemeka, Cesadai, Hutchinson too right? Its not like all he concentrated on was old, ready now players.Edwards seems to specialize in finding gems, yet Boely wants to make big statement signings. It doesn't make sense.
I think they’re going to have a few years of chaos. Long May it continue.I think Boehly is going to destroy Chelsea FC. From a scattergun transfer window of weird signings and no real planning, just getting what other teams are after.

You seem to have missed the apparent contradiction in your post.He was refusing to take the reigns given to him for the window, apparently complained about it all the time. ....
....Anyone who thought someone would buy a club and “build around a coach” as o have seen … doesn’t understand how this works.
mental money on such average players tooTuchel sucks, it was a smart move. They just shouldn't have let him spend 280 mil first
The glazers also manage Buccaneers who just won the super bowl two seasons ago. Now look at how they manage Manchester United, big difference. Being successful in American football doesn't equate to success in football.The same team runs the dodgers and they are quite well managed. Tuchel was going to always be on the way out as he was hired prior to the new ownership.
To be fair, the structure in the MLB is far more similar to football than the NFL.The glazers also manage Buccaneers who just won the super bowl two seasons ago.

Yeah, I don't rate their signings at all.mental money on such average players too
Not forgetting they still have donkey man to come back to the club after splunking 100m on him.
Didn't have much of a choice though.Yeah, I don't rate their signings at all.
dear mongeringIt's not fear if you want it to happen.
So what people should consider from Roman to Boehly is that where Roman had backroom staff that ran the club like clockwork, Boehly has allowed Tuchel to spend 280 million euro (with a net of 220+m euro) only to fire him within a month of the season starting. Reports today coming out that the decision has been made before the CL game means that Tuchel was allowed to bring in Fofana and Auba while they were discussing firing him.I think Boehly is going to destroy Chelsea FC. From a scattergun transfer window of weird signings and no real planning, just getting what other teams are after.

They fluked it though, just like how Ole would've fluked the league if City wasn't pumped by oil. They wont win it again for decades.The glazers also manage Buccaneers who just won the super bowl two seasons ago. Now look at how they manage Manchester United, big difference.

How did they fluke it? Did Real Madrid fluke their champions league win last season because they were almost down and out all knockout games?They fluked it though, just like how Ole would've fluked the league if City wasn't pumped by oil. They wont win it again for decades.
They are not well run at all, they finished 5th in their division and had to enter the playoffs via wildcard. The difference between them and Madrid has been pointed out; they won't win it again for decades, or even come close.How did they fluke it?

They had two of the greatest NFL players in Brady and Gronkowski.
What makes you think Ole would have won the league without City. Because he came second that one time behind City? It doesn't work like that.
After they won the super bowl did't they go as far as the divisional playoffs just last year and lost to the eventual super bowl winners RAMS by only 3 points in the last 30 seconds? So what makes you think they can't win it again? we will see I guess.They are not well run at all, they finished 5th in their division and had to enter the playoffs via wildcard.

The stories have been for weeks that he had become distant and the word used at Southampton by supporters was petulant. This isn’t about the last few weeks it goes deeper.Disagree with your post.

Agree with this 100% what is strange Dorsett on Sky has said part of the Chelsea team talking to Potter in central London are Peter Czech and Marina GHe was refusing to take the reigns given to him for the window, apparently complained about it all the time. He was upset Petr Cech left, but that was Petr’s choice. Marina was the one who had to go.
As for Clearlake, they have already started fixing our academy, loan, and scouting structure. They have cleaned out the rotten wood. They have a plan for who they want as DoF, and they have a plan for what they want Chelsea to be. Tuchel was using his squad selections to throw tantrums. They wanted to give him a chance I’m sure, but he caused more damage every day he was here.
Tuchel is a fantastic coach, but also has a history of petulance, and it has been showing since midway through the window, and the one thing you can’t let him do is eat away at the foundations of building the organization.

Would he?Roman would have given more time, this is a shocking decision. I don’t think many was expecting a sacking so soon
Personally I think it’s a million miles away from how things have played out following on from SAF at Utd.It will take time to set up a new successful structure. This year will probably be a write off for them - even if they get a good manager like Potter, he would need time to implement his ideas and with the packed schedule this year he wouldn't have the time to do it. The other problem is their squad is very unbalanced and lots of players rejected them in the summer - after this rash sacking even more players would think twice before signing for them, especially if they miss on top 4. There are a lot of worrying signs for Chelsea fans, that they are going the same way we did after SAF left. It might take a few years until they stabilize - it's been 8 years and counting for us, wouldn't be surprised if something similar happens to them.
In any case it's good news for us - Chelsea were one of the most consistent rivals since Abramovich came, so anything to destabilize them will be good for us.
That is the worry. I have an uneducated feeling, Potter will be great for them even though I have seen Brighton in their matches against us only. They have proper dominated us in those matches.The sacking has come far too soon and it is pretty ridiculous but if he can get Potter in then it's the right decision in my opinion.
What contradiction? He would say he accepts the job of helping with the transfer window , and then he would apparently go and grumble about having to do that job to other people.You seem to have missed the apparent contradiction in your post.
It's not only Tuchel, first and foremost it's Marina + Abramovich, wich was the most powerful combo in the PL, then it's the rest of the club structure, like Chech and the scouts, etc. It's very reminiscent to what happened after SAF / Gill left and Moyes ripped up the rest of the structure built by SAF.Personally I think it’s a million miles away from how things have played out following on from SAF at Utd.
SAF for all intents and purposes was Utd much akin to Wenger at Arsenal long term incumbents who had footprints in every aspect of the club Tuchal wasn’t close to that although I suspect he was thinking that following on from the plaudits he received following the sanctions
Chelsea has always looked to me like a club run in absolute chaos from day to day, with infighting from top to bottom. And yet somehow for them chaos seems to mean winning. Twice they've sacked managers into champions League wins, and it's not like Di Matteo was any good - he was arguably a worse manager than Solskjaer.I think Boehly is going to destroy Chelsea FC. From a scattergun transfer window of weird signings and no real planning, just getting what other teams are after.

The bit where you said that they were actively trying to give the manager lots more power, only to then say they wouldn't just give the manager lots more power.What contradiction? ...
