Thanks Chief! They've not looked decent at all so far.
Thomas Tuchel | Gone to & from Bayern (In Summer)
- Thread starter Bastian
- Start date
Any big name examples?
Tuchel is next isn't he?
Poch will be in by Christmas.
Even I’ll admit this is a random name to jump out immediately to me but Juande Ramos walking out of Sevilla to go to Spurs.
Remember when Tuchel was supposed to be our next manager around March 2022. How time flies
Fair enough, really couldn't think of a single high profile example, but that fits the bill.
What has happened to Chelsea under him?I thought they would progress a bit this season but he must be looking over his shoulder..
Harry Redknapp also did it to leave Southampton to return to Portsmouth and then to replace Ramos at Spurs, also Allardyce going to Newcastle (although if memory serves that was weird in that he’d decided he would walk at the end of the season, Bolton responded by sacking him so he just started early at Newcastle. My memory could definitely be failing me on that one though)
Chelsea also just spent the most money of any team in Europe in the summer transfer window.
I think people really overestimated Chelsea last season. Us, Arsenal and Tottenham were playing hot potato to avoid 4th, but had any of us got our shit together for a couple games and Chelsea would have been out of the top 4. Thought they were hugely overrated last season and I am not the slightest bit impressed with their acquisitions this summer.
Thank feck that never happened!
And there isn't a player they bought that I would have been happy for us to sign. Maybe Cucarella for about 1/3 of what they paid.
Sterling
Those wages though
They signed pretty underwhelming players really.
Rudiger looks to have been a big loss at the back for them.
More overpriced English players to feck up the team moral and run to the press when things don't go their way, no thanks.
Massive, although in fairness you have to blame Lampard for that one, not Tuchel.
His interview post game is a bit concerning.

50m hardly overpriced, and he's mint
Just came to post this. Giving very short abrupt answers, dodging questions. Looked very rattled.
If he gets sacked soon then I wonder where he'll end up next. Unless Arsenal or Spurs suffer a total collapse, I don't think any other team in the top 6 will be looking for a new manager for at least a year. And I can't see him going back to PSG or getting a top job in Spain.
My guess would be back to the Bundesliga or a midtable PL team.

Maybe the Leipzig job could be on the horizon at some point?
Leicester
Juventus maybe?
Is it a case of player power again or why should he suddenly have lost his touch ?
I’d take Fofana in a heartbeat.
Would be a great backup for us. Though not at that price.
Rodgers to Chelsea?
Would be a good upgrade on Maguire
Poch or Rodgers, yes please
Yeah and Rodgers name was being mentioned too by many outlets….Jesus, just fvcking imagine that now
They missed out on Cristiano. Now, don‘t make another mistake and miss out on Poch.
Almost got a warning arguing with people who wanted him and insisted he was underrated. Good times
Brendan to Chelsea, Howe to England, Southgate to Leicester, and Poch to Newcastle. You heard it here first.
That’s actually a good shout
The ultimate case of failing upwards
