Not sure how that would work. May as well not have severance pay if that’s the case.
Graham Potter | Apparently in "serious" talks with Ajax
- Thread starter horsechoker
- Start date
Huge numbers
Hardest decision will be who to cut out of the 40 odd first team players with the loans coming back etc..!
Sounds like Potter's contract was smart anyway.., not getting whole contract paid out or even close to it.
Real won 6 0 today and they'll be massive favourites in the CL. If they play like that we've no chance. Benz, Vini and Rodrygo different class to our forwards.
I mean I don’t think smart is the word for any of this tbh.
Wow, I didn’t think they were actually going to do it. Regardless, it’s been a long time coming. I still think Potter is a very talented coach but the Chelsea job as it is is just too difficult for him. I expect Potter to bounce back with a smaller club and rebuild his reputation but I don’t see him making that step up to one of the big clubs anymore. Though he may get the England job at some point.
For Chelsea, it’s bound to be Nagelsmann. I don’t know whether they will get him now or at the end of the season, I thought that he would sit out the remaining months. He is a very talented coach too but like Potter, he may find Chelsea a very difficult job for him to work too.

Bayern vs Nagelsmann in CL semi final is inevitable if nagelsmann joins chelsea
Chelsea speedrun record, impressive.
What's the opposite of "by mutual consent"?
Rape
Topfer then...
Couldn’t do it AFTER we played them huh.
You seem to forget that this is the Chelsea way we've always fired managers after bad performances. Potter has been a disaster. The fans have been wanting him gone from January. Todd made the wrong decision of making footballing decisions without footballing people on board the difference is we have footballing people now at the club(Monaco, Rbl, Brighton) The length of the contracts are irrelevant because the players we have bought are literally players that are considered top prospects in football and they are all on LOW wages so the length of the contract isn't an issue you're acting like we brought in bums who don't know what they are doing. Also of all the new players that we have brought in the only mainstays are Enzo, Felix Cucrella and Koulibaly. Everyone else was here under Tuchel and he got them in September. Potter has had more mid season breaks and time to get his point across.
First it was the injuries are a problem, then it was oh he has no players. Players came back from injuries you got some of the talented youngsters in europe.
Yeah you will call it circus and that is your opinion what is a fact is that Potter was failing at his job And should have been sacked before the International break,
Crazy, plus the £300m spent on players in January on long contracts that the new manager might not want
Daft he took the job in the first place. He's the type of manager that needs time and the right backing to build a team which he was never going to get at Chelsea.
He'd do well at Spurs.

Not so daft then
I can see Graham Potter walking straight in to the Leicester job, he would be a good fit there.
To be fair that’s more apt. Chelsea have been raped by Boehly.
Apparently they’d have to pay out the rest of his contract as he’s done over 6 months in the job.
So that’s over £50m.
If Boehly was to take the decision to sack Potter, Chelsea would need to buy out the remainder of his deal. This would cost the Blues somewhere in the region of £50million, given he has already completed half a year in charge.

Fecking hell
OK, who do I owe a tenner?
fecking hell
That makes Boehly decisions even worse. He’s cost them £50m by not sacking him slightly earlier before 6 months elapsed!
He is way over his head I think..
He's accurate, but dark. And he responded in less than 10 seconds tooFecking hell
No Potter Fired or rape jokes before someone thinks of posting one. Should go without saying but I know what some are like.
Aren't pretty much all of the backroom staff people he took from Brighton aswell? And that fitness guy is someone Tuchel wants at Bayern.
Genuinely interested who they're actually going to put in temporary charge v Liverpool as I'd like them to rouse themselves to get at least a draw from that.

Could be worse. We could be Watford..
Sadly it was inevitable. He proved he was incapable of turning things around. Despite the clubs position I’m glad we tried to give him the opportunity to turn our fortunes around. He got a lot of hate which was completely disrespectful. I hope he bounces back.
I don’t want the Bagel Man. We need someone with experience. This is not an easy job and someone with only so much time in the game is also going to struggle.

Yes, in the Summer. Exactly what I wrote. Potter may have been the wrong Manager choice but your club made the objective impossible in the first place by claiming he had long term job security despite actually thinking short term and vastly changing the squad in the space of a single season. You're falling into the same trap we did thinking that all your recruitments are solid when the reality is that you've spent a fortune on players that haven't stepped up and perhaps wont ever. Length of contract is very relevant, if your player is a dud and Europe knows it then you can't just let the clock tick away and after 3 seasons he's gone. You'll be stuck with those dud for years and years, not that it bothers Chelsea mind with your loan recruitment drive.
We certainly will call a potato a potato and a circus a circus. Your club is a circus. Good luck whoever the next Manager is, poison chalice of a job right now.
Potter probably
I’m calling it now. Klopp to Chelsea.
Another team in shite form who gets to sack their manager before they play us. Great.
Football wise, the most sensible appointment at this stage of the season and with the players up there is Conte.
If I was Leicester I'd go for Potter in a heart beat
Yep. It was a long term project remember. All the backroom staff and even some recruitment people from memory to work with him.
I imagine this will cost them close to £100m from start to finish. Absolutely crazy.
On to the third manager of the season!
