The arrogance of these owners are a disgrace.

Ive never been so angry in my life

From 12th to 6th . With the most injuries . With the youngest squad in the top 5 leagues. Drew to treble winners home and away . Drew to title contenders Arsenal and Lpool and beat Spurs home and away . 1 cup final . 1 cup semifinal . Got a set of youngsters and turned them into a unified team. Poch did well 👏

“This is a disgrace”-drogba

We're bolloxed. No one to save Gallagher an Chalobah now. :(

What the fuck ......this guy saved this club from the shitty hell it was. He worked miracles with the kind of board we have

GET CLOWNLAKE OUT OF MY CLUB

Spot on with everything here, well said! It's a shambles from head to toe. Shocking

Reading between the lines Poch wanted to keep Gallagher and maybe Chalobah and gave the board an ultimatum which ended with him going. Shocking decision, club is turning into an even bigger joke. I will back the new manager and players but the board have a lot of work to get my support back

IM SO TIRED JOEY ITS SO TIERING SUPPORTING THIS CLUB SOMETIMES

One step forward, twenty steps backwards, wtf is this ownership doing ffs

Madness cant believe it. Going to have to start all over again next season 😂

This news has ruined my day. The board and the Sporting Directors better get this right. Because if we finish anything below top 4 for next season, then i and a whole lot of other fans will be livid 🤬🤬🤬

The Board is just one big April fools joke at this point

No Joey, this is the best video you've ever made. I can't believe the notification I got today. As an American Chelsea fan, these owners think they can do what they do in American Baseball in the Prem. Football is a much bigger and different beast of a sport. The best thing they could've done would be to get people who are experienced and get this club to the place we know it can get to. This is sad.

It is even worse that Gallagher and Chalobah are now probably almost certantly gone.

Just ruined our next season. Goodbye top 4. Goodbye good vibes. Goodbye any chance of consistency. Goodbye Connor and Trevor. Bad day, bad news to wake up to here in Australia

I’m in shock mate we are fucked next season 🤦🏻‍♂️😰

Yet again, this board has broke my heart. I’m so damn gutted right now.

I had a feeling he wanted to leave, that last press conference he seemed like the board did not want to give up transfer power and he has a style of play that needs specific profiles. I was Poch In, sad day but i back the Badge not a manager. Future is even more cloudy now.

As a chelsea fan its a disgrace to sack Poch and I am really worried for the future

We were back for about 12 hours

RIP Chelsea Football Club 🪦🌹 1905-2024 💔💙

Sacking him mid-season would've been a disaster, you can't expect these young players to adapt to a new manager quickly

Listened to you from the beginning Joey and you've been the shining light in Chelseas season for me. We need you and Josh now more than ever to keep us hoping and keep us faithful!

To be honest apart from the part that the team started to gel under him i generally have always loved him since he came and I’ve never said Pochettino out before I genuinely liked him now I feel like crying

Let’s just accept we a mid table club now

These owners are f###ing clueless, 1 step forward,5 steps back!.

We are digging ourself a brand new hole

We must get rid of these "Owners" .... Absolutely disgusting.

I was Poch Out but now after seeing the names linked with his replacement 😅 I can clearly say be careful what you wish for

Top 6, only 5 points off of 4th place. With the youngest team in the league, with the most injuries throughout the season. Final and semi final in cup tournaments. Genuinely don’t understand how that deserves a sacking. Throughout the season it was justified but after the way he ended the season, the clear respect and appreciation the players have for him… shocking

It goes down hill from here

The board no nothing about football, There is no project. There clueless. Theses owners are taking Chelsea to the ground.its time to say RIP to the Chelsea we know.

Absolute madness by the board..

I’m livid

back to square fu*king one

We've officially become a Spurs level club, we can't expect any trophies anymore.

6th the with the youngest most injuries in the league. Respect Poch..

please, I implore every single chelsea fan to voice their grievances with the club on the chelsea fc website, send to the fan advisory board or file a complaint, make your voices heard and show the club just how much we disagree with the way the club is being run

For sure it has to got something to do that he wanted gallagher to stay and want more experienced players in. Wich the board couldnt give him. Young players and sell homegrown players, specially now when the see dollarsigns when gallagher got a good season

Look at the teams we lost too ! We spent over 200 million on 2 midfielders and he cant even get them playing well together. He played colwell at LB to keep him happy so he didnt ask to leave! We had Hall, Matson, chilwell and cucerella! Yet he played a 20 yr old CB in his first Season for us at LB! Because we won five games against teams that had given up and burnt out at the end of the season you are all forgetting what he did to OUR club! His a Spurs Reject he has never Won a trophy of any Significance! He was in Charge of Mbappe and PSG! Dont let the last part of season cloud your judgement! His is and always will be a spurs reject! De zerbi looks odds on to take over!

Great job to the fans. Everyone wanted him out ALL season.

I waited since it was confirmed for you to make a video about it

Now we all know that Poch was not the problem, the owners are fools

I agree that Poch did well in a difficult situation. However, I disagree with Joey (rare) that something major must have happened. We need to understand that CFC is not run like a traditional English football club. It is run as a business AND by American owners. They operate differently. I assume there was a clause in the contract that in a post season review, if certain performance criteria were NOT achieved (CL...) it became easier and cheaper to terminate Poch. So thats why a) no mid season firing and b) so much emphasis on the review post season. US owners fire managers that do not hit KPIs, sell homegrown talent because it works for FFP and try to build a professional structure within Chelsea. Fans emotions are not a major factor. On the plus side, they will continue to invest AND they will see the club if an opportunity presents itself. So onwards and upwards. No point in getting upset.

Well I hope the board realize that in time every manager will ask for more experienced players.

All that pain just to start over again for 12th to 6th back to 12th again...heaven save us

Oh god what have we done

Championship manager to take us the Prem and Europa league!!? This is mental

i’m a chelsea fan through and through but i’m struggling to be a fan rn. not because we aren’t winning trophies and not cuz we aren’t top four, but because i don’t know what the board is gonna do by tomorrow. this is shocking

As a neutral, I'm so sorry for you guys, this is an absolute shambles, terrible decision from the higher ups to throw all that hard work away that Pochettino did for Chelsea. That's some bullshit.

Please bring Nagelsman

The problem was never the coaches. I see now.

Madness‼️ Come on down to Brentford, working class club who care for their fans. Small, but have a massive heart.

Same as you, was looking forward to next season finally seem settled couple of experienced players in during the summer and things are starting to really look positive, but who knows now

Worst decision from the owners

Joey mate, he didnt get sacked he left by mutual agreement! He didnt want us as much as we didnt want him! I remember watching your videos after most of out matches this season and you was as pissed and upset and embarrassed as much as the rest of us! Dont forget what he did, colwell at LB letting Mattson going on loan where his been flying and got to a champs league final with a team that we beat Last season! He cant get caceido and enzo to gel, they cost us over 200 million! He played chilwell at Left wing, played mudryk 1 game at a time so he couldnt get any type of form going yet stuck with sterling when he was having nightmare games! He didnt make the right subs at the right times, he didnt change tactics at all when it was clear during games against lesser teams defending deep it was needed! 5 0 to Arseholes! Abramovich would have sacked him or any manager in the dressing room after the game if he was still the owner, why? WE ARE CHELSEA AND LONDON IS BLUE! I can go on and on about all the bad things he did, how many good things did he do? How many times were you gutted after a game this season? Yet we win the last 5 and everyone forgets! Cant believe how many of you are gutted about him going. OUR players showed us at the end of the season how good they are and they showed us in pre season before that! I love Chelsea Football club more than any manager or owners! Heres to pre season and Our new manager, Whoever he is !

I honestly dont know what to even do anymore ill always support chelsea but i genuinely cant speak atm

I’m speechless man.. you are exactly right!

The so called fans that wanted poch out are probably dancing in their little dresses around the table waiting until the next manager walks through thise doors, until they see how we will perform next season. And then thats when these plastic fans will start crying for poch back. Smh these owners are clueless also tells you that Gallagher and Challobah are getting sold this summer for sure

No. You are not being too emotional. I am absolutely FED UP

I can't believe this... We all had unhappy moments with poch but I feel like most of us had faith in him going into next season. I can't see how any of these "younger" managers are going to be able to do anything for us

it's getting to the point where if they don't get this appointment right the fans have to protest

I have loved & supported this club my whole life. Clearlake are continuing to make this harder and harder season by season, their decision making is horrendous.

Joey you got what you wanted poch left jump for joy

He’s got the rabbit in the headlights look.COYS,

I feel like we are in for a similar season next year... core of the team riped in summer, new coach and many new young signings

I just hope this isn't bad news for Gallagher and Chalobah staying

Im just exhausted. I'm not even 18 yet, and this club has given me grey hairs already

Can't say I'm surprised given our recent history. It's a big shame as you could see things coming together. Can only hope the appointment is quick and the new manager gets plenty of time before the season with their new coaching team to gel the players and hit the ground running in august.

I get it there will never be another Roman but this?? My heart shatters looking at the state we are in

I'm just as pissed. Given the injuries and other challenges, and still finish the way we did was an absolute miracle I tell you. Only few out there could've done a better job. This is just horrendously ridiculously hysterical what we are doing as a club

Gutted , we’ve took atleast a years progress out the window with this , we will be in the same position and stuck in the “we need a manager “ phase next season now , instead of starting strong after where we left off

I think the press-conference before Bournemouth game should have been the hint for us. And I can see the outgoings right away after this move.

Im a huge chelsea fan, and this isnt the worst for our club hear me out. DONT let 5 good games fool you, all this season has been to incositent with chelsea, dont forget we lost 5-0 to arsenal and a 1-0 defeat to middlesbrough. 2-1 defeat to a shit utd team. Poch was never the right manager. And Chelsea board have learnt from last season instead of firing when alle of us was shouting at them to do, but instead they was smart and waited the season and analyzed the situation, and came to the right decision "were not gonna win trophies with this man". De zerbi isnt a bad shout, you saw the things he did with mudryk in the cl against madrid. And he was the manager that made caicedo good enugh to chelsea was willing to buy him for 115 mil. On top of that he also wanted cole palmer at brighton before chelsea wanted him, he's a manager that also have a good relationship with lewi colwill. So he has a good resume working with young players, so he could easily go and do a suprising good job with ours young and big potential squad. Would much much more have de zerbi than Poch.

Right now it seems like absolute madness but who knows maybe the owners have a plan. I flipping hope they do because it doesn't seem like it right now.

Shout it from the rooftops mate, couldn't agree more

I’ve backed Potch all season but especially the back end of the season I actually started to like him and grow towards him and was excited for next season seeing these tactics he was playing and seeing Chelsea have a style of play but now they wanna look for a championship manager to come to the Prem and take Chelsea to Europe. Can’t fucking wait to finish bottom half again

am sad didn't see this coming

I was beyond shocked when i saw the news. I was beginning to like how Poch was building the team. It was obvious the players were backing him. Seeing Cole Palmer‘s post on Instagram today after the news came out was so sad. Just bummed.

I was just starting to love my club. Again man 😔

I just hope we don't regret this move

It is so annoying on my part as well. He needed to complete his contract. I don't know if there are many managers interested in the Chelsea job under the circumstances.

Just when everything was looking up. The players loved him, we improved massively, and our players are back from injury. We were ready to start next season strong. These owners are a joke. Now we have to start from square one, and who can we even get to replace him?

That Jack Paul vs Iron mike allegory killed me bro.

Love to see it.

Genuinely think a lot of fans were/are deluded if they thought there wouldn't be a pain barrier this season. We scored like 38 goals last season, massively struggled. We then sold Kova, Havertz and Mount, whilst Kante and Azpilicueta left. The amount of experience that went out the door was insane. We were always going to be inconsistent and think for Poch to get us to 6th, only 6 points of Villa in 4th is incredible. Whether by luck or design we found a system that seemed to suit the players, found form, individuals improved and we played some good football. He deserved next season. It sounds like he wanted to keep Gallagher and Chalobah and Eghbali and Boehly want to sell, so it sounds like from Poch's view, him staying became impossible. Been going to the bridge since the Gullit era. Feel so disconnected from the club and have zero clue who we turn to next, and dont know which manager with any promise would want to work with this lot.

Not happy with the decision, but let me tell you as Bundesliga fan: Sebastian hoeneß is a hell of a manager. He’s taken a team from 16th to second within a year Playing beautiful football. Only downside: if Bayern can’t get him, we won’t either

Hey Joey...i understand the fury but my point of view is Poch deal was to get to UEFA this season which he didn't. We were frustrated week in week out with Poch results. I still believe he deserved a second season but it is what it is. From the list of managers, i think for me 1)Flick 2) Stuttgart manager maybe

it's been a slow process but i feel that english football has lost it's soul, not just chelsea . the premier league used to be more of a level playing field in the 90's and early 2000's , i remember a time when even lesser teams had huge stars, really talented players and internationals

I'm actually ok with the last 3 names you gave. I think everyone is caught up in the emotions. Improvements were made but people can't be calling for his head all season and then when it happens get upset that it happened. The selections for manager were thin even for stable clubs.

The idea of us playing a completely different type of football already next season is beyond me

I was Poch out ever since the cup final. I just didn’t see us winning anything with him in charge. I am not a fan of his lineups, how we constantly make similar errors every game, how he doesn’t really show much management during the game and waits way too long to make changes, and often when he did made changes it didn’t really help and in some cases made it worse. The man is a serial loser. However, the players clearly saw something in him, whether it be they can just coast around picking up big cheques, or he can actually improve them is irrelevant. They wanted to play for him and we have seen a change since the arsenal game. It was ridiculous that we had to wait until the end of the season to see basic team structures, attacking patterns of play, etc. But getting rid of him as soon as it clicks seems so strange. Injuries have been a big problem, but he has also had times where we had a Maatsen who could play lb, yet chose to play colwill lb instead and cost us results. Or playing Gallagher lw, or sticking with an injured Enzo and playing him with Caicedo in a system that makes them look so much worse than they actually are. Looks like Gallagher and Chalobah are gonna be sold for that pure profit😔. Gotta fund those overpriced Brazilian teenagers somehow am I right 🤷‍♂️ The main reason why I didn’t care if he went or stayed cos who is the alternative manager? If we get this Ipswich guy we are finished, idc if he got two promotions in a row, we are Chelsea ffs. Guess we will have to wait and see

Joey bruh I am gobsmacked & fuming at the same time.

I can't believe this madness. I'm not a Poch fan but I want him to manage next year because of this year's performance. I hope sacking him will not affect the team next season.

It was more of a case of creative differences than the traditional sacking. As a boxing man, you should recall Tyson always used to say everyone has a plan A until they get punched in the face. It took Poch longer than necessary to get to plan B.

I dont understand these owners, poch did his best with this team considering how he found it at the start of the season he did well for us to get 6th. He was our last chance.

If we do have to replace with the options you listed, I would go with the Girona manager. He had the other Catalan club performing better than Barcelona and contending for the top spots against Real Madrid and etc.

Joey. I think they'd made their decision and would give Potch the season. I think they've already made their mind up. Love your work mate. Mad innit. Calm down. We might get another Uni Emry.
