That is not how it works.
No they won’t though, someone will just be the first choice and will be appointed. This is how it works in football for some reason.
You don’t get it don’t you. I was trying to tell you that you should worry or focus about your own team not us because you got Lampard, the worst manager of the top 6 team. Your current concern about Poch to join United does not matter because your current manager is Lampard and United has better chance to win something under Ole than Chelsea under Lampard, this logic coming from the fact that Ole is better manager than Lampard, the h2h & where we finished end of last season reflect to it as the evidence.
How do you know that ? How can you say with such confidence that this is actually how it works ? where are your sources ?
Well, I might be wrong, but my opinion is that it would be too difficult to keep the process secret enough to prevent the names of people interviewed from coming out.
Irrespective whether Ole stays or leave we need some serious restructuring at the club. We need to get a top DOF, a top head of recruitment and we need to inject some real experience in that coaching staff. Apart from Phelan we're lead by a bunch of kids (football experience wise) really and that's felt across the board. New signing performances tend to nosedive once our coaches had the time to get their hands on them while players who actually leave the club have a second lease of life (Lukaku, Dalot and Smalling)
I'm not sure where the sensitive things you said?
Wow, definitely sensitive. Seems I've struck a nerve!
Were you trying to wind me up or something? I didn't know that
I wasn't trying to wind anyone up, I made a perfectly sensible and innocuous post from a rival's perspective. You've responded by posting some silly OTT nonsense regarding Lampard, which isn't even relevant to this discussion. Obviously this is because you're sensitive about Ole - understandable, as I would be too were I in your shoes.I'm not sure where the sensitive things you said?
I thought you want to have a discussion about our club's managers and I welcome you with nice, sensible with fact replies but for some reason you are talking about sensitivity and nerve things, you are either weirdo or still drunk
This is why I mentioned it before that you didn't get what I said. My point is simple, why would a Chelsea fans need to be worried of Ole being replaced by Poch when with Ole we can finish above Chelsea. Whether it's Ole or Poch, it doesn't change anything on Chelsea
Must be a rival fan your suggesting that Solskjaer is the only manager in world football to lead the club forward and that he's a brilliant tactician
. I don't think Poch is the best option but he's a better manager than what Solskjaer has proven himself to be. We need a manager with leadership qualities, clear identity and a sense of direction all of which Ole lacks.Wait, let me get this straight. Because you finished one position ahead of us last year, your manager is definitively better to the point where I should never consider the impact of replacing him? And any / all relevant context shouldn't be considered?
The impact for Chelsea doesn't change though, it will still be finishing higher than Chelsea under Lampard.Wait, let me get this straight. Because you finished one position ahead of us last year, your manager is definitively better to the point where I should never consider the impact of replacing him? And any / all relevant context shouldn't be considered?
Right. Because last season proves that. But if we were to appoint, say, Garry Monk or Tim Sherwood who are proven to be better managers than Ole by your same criteria, you'd have no basis to comment.
Proven what? They haven’t proven to be better manager than Ole in top club.Right. Because last season proves that. But if we were to appoint, say, Garry Monk or Tim Sherwood who are proven to be better managers than Ole by your same criteria, you'd have no basis to comment.
Your argument is that Ole has been proven to be a better manager than Lampard because he finished ahead of him on goal difference in one season (ignoring the fact that Ole spend 200m, hadn't lost his best player, was already integrated and settled at the club, and had been a manager for 8 times as long). If context doesn't matter, then by your standards every manager who finished above Ole in 2013/14 is proven to be better.
You are not reading my post fully mate. I don’t just use the league position to judge who’s better. I can talk Arteta being better than Lampard due to him have won trophy FA Cup.
Hazard either scored or assisted literally half our goals in 18/19. It just doesn't compare.
So? It doesn’t mean you can ignore the fact that there are good players in that squad which part of the squad that finished 3rd and won Europa league. Losing Hazard doesn’t prevent manager to find different way to create goals & assists from other players, as long as there are good players in the squad. Just because Sarri used Hazard as his vocal point doesn’t mean manager can’t use others.
Comparing losing Lukaku to losing Hazard. My goodness.
You haven't even made a point here. This is the football supporter's equivalent of "MY DAD CAN BEAT UP YOUR DAD". Glad to see you have a firm grasp on reality at least - I didn't realize that no one could comment on another club in the middle of a season until it's mathematically impossible to finish below them.The fact that Lukaku was one of our main player while you had Hazard as your main player pretty much reflect to the team's quality what Ole left with when he took in charge, a team that is not as good as winning Europa League and finished 3rd unlike what Lampard were left with. At least Chelsea board gave something to replace that main player (Pulisic), Ole got nothing to replace that main player.
Did Ole finish higher than Lampard last season?
Well, except for an 80m CB, a 50m RB, and then Bruno. But sure.
"It will still be finishing higher than Chelsea under Lampard" - I didn't realise you were some sort of prophet who knows the outcome of this season? Also using the outcomes of 5 total matches & an advantage on goal difference as conclusive proof remains utterly comical.
So you've decided in November that we'll automatically finish above Chelsea this season?
This season is not even mid way, why would I decide such thing.
The two are defenders not top scorer, it doesn't change the fact that we lost our 2nd top scorer and our top scorer in open play and didn't replace him.
I never say that will be the outcome of this season. In fact, no one know what's the outcome of this season if we have Poch either so I don't know why you are also scare of him being our manager if you are not scare of Ole. At the end of the day, this is judged based on what the managers have prove themselves before. Poch has proven himself what he's capable of previously to be considered finishing higher than Frank, Ole has proven himself what he's capable of last season to be considered finishing higher than Frank.
You are totally wrong. Read this again you lazy,
One season sample size = proof. Gotcha. I look forward to seeing you finish above us again, since because it happened last year it obviously will happen again this year.
Don’t make me repeat myself again. I told you already, when the two manager are being compared, we use everything as valuation but in the current circumstances the only things what available to use as valuation is h2h and last season league position.
Gotcha, so Ole is a better manager than Ancelotti. Or perhaps there are other ways we can look at things that are above the comprehension level of a neanderthal.
Read this again you lazy, stop pretending you even read my post because it’s so clear you don’t.
The point is you are using two categories to compare managers when it's blindingly obvious to anyone that this is a ridiculous and simplistic way of doing so, whilst prattling on about how you're guaranteed to finish above us this season because it happened last year.
So why did I use different category when I compare Lampard and Arteta then?
