[Football] Poch leaves chelsea

[maidstoneseagull]

Was expecting them to be up in the top next season. But entertaining all the same.

 

[raymondo]

Chelsea fans questioning (actually...trashing!) the ability of Winstanley and mate after appointing Poch following an 'extensive search'.

Also, Fabregas was apparently seen at their training ground last week

 

[Justice]

The amusing thing is Abramavich probably wouldn’t have any idea the championship existed let alone hire a championship manager

 

[Farehamseagull]

It does feel like there’s a genuine element of ‘mutual consent’. Some of Poch’s comments a couple of weeks back struck me at the time as if he might walk out on them, but I figured that possibility was so hilarious it couldn’t possibly be true.

And then the gift kept on giving

Yeah I felt Poch has been unhappy for a while and expected this. Poch is a decent guy, another one too good for that despicable club, he’s well out of there.

Oh no - I'm worried that they might poach RDZ from us now.

Have you not noticed……..

 

[Zeberdi]

Chelsea’s latest drama getting rave reviews apparently …

 

[raymondo]

Chelsea are certainly entertaining!

I thought we were heading into a few weeks of boredom before the Euros...no chance

 

[raymondo]

Oh no - I'm worried that they might poach RDZ from us now.

They'd have to pay us even more compo

I’m pretty shocked at that. Awful start, but that’s mostly because of the squad needing time to gel, but more recently they’ve looked decent. Definitely signs of progress.

Chelsea are just a joke.

Bloody stupid. If Boehly hadn't lost his nerve they could have kept Potter and saved a mint of money - given a pre-season and the influx of absolute quality like Caicedo and Palmer Potter would have done just the same, progress -wise, as Poch, and probably finished the league in about the same place.

 

[Jim in the West]

So Chelsea are considering Thomas Frank! Do they have a clue about how he plays football? A very effective manager, but completely different, style-wise, to the likes of McKenna, etc.

[zefarelly]

All lined up a week or so ago you reckon?

My thoughts exactly . . . There have been things going on for some time.

The PL is a proper soap opera, every bit as silly as F1, except F1 doesn't have a Coronation St factor

Yes, yes they are

A very very funny one too

 

[TomandJerry]

I'm going to need more popcorn...

 

[WhingForPresident]

I don't know if anyone else watches YouTuber Rory Jennings (298,000 subscribers) but he is a massive Chelsea fan and has been banging on ALL SEASON about how shit Pochettino is.

He has piped down over the last few weeks and focused on siding with Arsenal in their title hunt (such is his hatred of Spurs), but is now LAMENTING Poch's departure. You could not make this stuff up.

He is an absolute helmet, same with that trampy looking Liverpool 'fan' that he used to do the podcast with, hosted by that Geordie guy that likes getting shat on.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Thomas Frank is a very good coach at what he does, but dynamic?

 

[Hometownglory]

I would laugh so much if they got in Roberto and he stunk the place out.

Another £150mill+ in the bank when RDZ tells Todd to get Mitoma, Enciso and Pedro. Oh and Steele for distribution.

 

[Home and Away]

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Why are Chelsea so weird? Why do they need to copy us constantly?

We're by the sea side, beside the sea.

Whereas they are beside themselves. And Vauxhall. Think of the children.
