I just hope they are in complete disarray next Sunday, take a ass whooping, before improving and taking points off our rivals. 

[J-V]

I hope they don’t get Potter.

[Arniepie]

Even for Chelsea that's absolutely crackers

They let him spend over £200m then give him 7 games of the season to bed it all in!

 

Abramovich and Boehly - different cheek, same arse!

 

Fuck them anyway.

I wouldn't be surprised if Roman is still wielding some type of influence behind the scenes. Seems like a very Roman-style move, let the manager spend a ton of money and then sack him a few games into the season.

Sounds like he must have fallen out with the squad surely. Mad otherwise with all that cash spent. Annoyingly they usually respond well to a new manager change, gonna be Pochettino surely 

[Dr Nowt]

Unconfirmed reports Todd Boehly is about to get the job.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Rodgers could be available soon. Just saying.

[aws]

New manager bounce just as we go there.

There must be a problem or is the new owner just as trigger happy as their last one? It doesn't make sense to let the manager be involved in over £200 million of acquisitions only to then fire him a week after the window closes.

Sky saying Potter is their first choice, with Pochettino and Zidane also on their list. 
 

I heard most of the Chelsea players hated him. 

[J-V]

The right thing for them to do is get ole Brendan.  Bring him home Chelsea.

Crackle to the rescue. 

[Daisy]

Disaster for us if they get potter. No way we get top four

Comedy gold.

[Dave D]

Mad.

 

A little like Lampard who kept slating his 100m keeper- eventually the owners turn around and point out its your job to to get a tune out of him.

 

Which is why we never hear Klopp throwing players under the bus. He must be absolutely bursting to slate Keita to all and sundry but knows that he was the one that led the campaign to sign him, so much so we paid upfront and loaned him back for a year.

Have the players quit on the Chelsea manager, as they always do, or are they just shite?

 

Either way, looks good to me.

Boehly better hope not, there was something earlier in the window that they'd moved away from the club identify and buy the players to giving Tuchel more control over who they target.

 

You don't want to spend that much money and then sack him before the end of the season.

They've fucked that then.

Based on what? He's done brilliantly at Brighton but was given time to build his team, something he wouldn't be given at Chelsea. Add to that he's dealing with a small squad of players at Brighton who are not household names, it remains to be seen how he adapts to a big team of 20 to 30 big name players all of whom are expecting to play, when they aren't playing is when the trouble starts.

[Frank Dacey]

Not surprised at this to be honest. Thought that if Abramovich had been there he would have gone at the end of last season given some of their results (1-4 at home v Brentford) and his failure to get a tune out of the players, Lukakau being the obvious example, but there were others, too.

[Vincent Vega]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Potter was happy to wait for a more stable club, he seems to have his head screwed on. 

[TD_LFC]

Potter shouldn't go to Chelsea, neither should Pochettino.

 

Zidane would be perfect for the kind of club they are.

[dockers_strike]

Wow, didnt see this coming! Tuchel sacked after the club spent nearly £270m in the summer window, unbelievable. They might have changed the owner but they're still a plastic club.

 

Be interesting to see who they go for next.
