Chelsea want a 30 year old manager with 40 years of experience. Who'll nod along with every decision Todd and Egbhali make, but also someone who's firm and decisive.

We've just pushed out a manager who was trying to uphold the club's culture. Strangely enough, he was the one person who understood what Chelsea is and ironically help aid Roman's vision, of having a brimming academy, being realised. The club has now embraced Reece James as the undisputed club captain (rightfully or wrongfully), we've put him front and centre of the team yet it was Poch's decision in the first place; now it seems as if it was always destined to be. Fans and pundits alike were pining for Silva or someone more experienced to be captain yet Poch understood the long term vision. He was trying to develop a homegrown/English-oriented captaincy and hierarchy within the squad with James, Chilwell, Gallagher, Colwill and Chalobah being the lynchpins. For years we were mocked for solely having continental players now we're sacking a manager for wanting to establish a fundamentally English core. He's given debuts to Alfie Gilchrist, Michael Golding, Alex Matos, Josh Acheampong and Leo Castledine, in his first season, more than any other previous manager, under arguably the most tumultuous conditions. What makes this all the more disappointing is that previous years under Roman we felt as if every sacking was ultimately in order to course-correct, in this case it seems as if we're just steering ourselves into uncharted waters with many fighting for the wheel. Poch knew the league and now knew his team, whoever we get would need another adjustment period. Plus even then, what guarantees would have that he won't be sacked for a above-average season? The entire team wanted the manager to stay. Even under the great Tuchel, Conte and Mourinho we had players fall out with them, not with Poch. This is the odd occasion in our history where the team had more faith in the manager than the board. If anything the player's opinion should matter most as they are the ones who work with him daily. Players can never truly buy into a manager's tactics now because their opinion is not valued by the higher-ups. Eventually the players will develop their own "player power mentality" since the managers will be an ever revolving door whilst they're the constants. Poch developed into a father figure for this young crop, helping them develop their games. That's what Fergie did all too well. He may not have been the "winning-mentality" manager we needed long term but he was the right coach for right now. The next manager will be likely be stoic and cold because he'll be fighting for his job from day-one, no patience for these young lads, he'll get frustrated and leave, then the cycle continues again. Just gutted.

Todd wants a young coach who he can control 😂😂

Poch didn't DeZerb that!!!

It surprising no one is talking about Behdad Eghbali the actual culprit behind Chelsea's mess. Todd is nothing but a scape goat as he is the face of the investors. I think epl should go adapt bundesliga ownership format no owner should own more than 49/% of a club

Better question... who will replace these clueless owners?

Managers should start trying to break the record for the fastest severance payout from Chelsea, Potter currently top of the leaderboard

de Zerbi -> downgrade .... McKenna -> downgrade ... Frank -> downgrade gonna be one of those 3. it's a boehly-thing

I'm very devastated with CHELSEA man, they are delaying the progress of the players.

At this rate: Option A: Míchel from Girona Option B: Amorim Option C: Thiago Motta Option D: De Zerbi Option E: Other

I don't see JOSE'S NAME

Thomas tuchel will be back and they think now is the perfect time. Surely to get the fans backing. Just watch it

This is one manager sacking that doesn’t make sense to me in the history of football

It's becoming upsetting for me the way my club is being run😢

Its not just Boehly its also Eghbali... infact he apparently is very hands in daily...

Hansi flick Thiago Motta are good for Chelsea

At this moment bring back Lampard

Get Cesc Fabregas

Jose in

This must be the worst decision in football history. This current Chelsea board is a complete joke. They sacked Tuchel after they made his oversee a bunch of expensive signings. Yes Poch had a rocky start and was mediocre for the most part of the season, but he got it together towards the end (most important) part of the season and got it right as evidenced by 5 straight wins and a single loss to Arsenal in the last 11 matches or so. Only Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool secured more parts in the second part of the season. Not to talk of the various injuries! His job was almost impossible, and just when he got on the right path, these guys decide to sack him? That's what happens when you sell a football team to a bunch of Americans. In their country, they play football with their hands 😂. Otumfour Kojo Agyemang

Piff the magic dragon or David Copperfield.

Let’s do Michel from girona

I swear Chelsea owners are playing FM.

Potch had no transfers of his own! plus no striker all season !!! 🤷🏼‍♂️

Kieran McKenna, Roberti De Zerbi will be another Harry Potter the village football coach! The only qualify coach on the list is Thomas Tuchel

Now the lunacy of the new Chelsea management has come to light openly. Sacking Poch is an absolute disaster, and this brings Chelsea back to ground zero.

I’d like to see Frank

John Terry wil be Chelsea next head coach

I think de zebi has discussed w chelsea and wait for formal announcement from the club Ps top mgt has decided to sack him so plan has been made already

What about Marco Rose from Leipzig, could be a good fit for this squad

These onwers have the same effect on fan morale as VAR.

Chelsea trying to pull a Leverkusen... Bholey gone mad Bro, I don't think he understands Premier league.

Mourinho III.

because chelsea investing alot of money you Craig boy

they can do whatever they like but they should carry cup 😊😊

When Todd returns from US, he will bring along Pinocchio (Walt Disney's fame) and tell everyone he outbid everyone and here is your new coach, Pinocchio.

Pochettino to Bayern, maybe? Thoughts?

The guy getting annoyed with Dan & the espn fc gang, 😆😆

The new owners have turned Chelsea from a winning club to a raging storm.

When Thomas Tuchel was sacked there was no sporting directors though, Boehly was doing it all on his own. Its different now, so maybe a possible return??? When you have eccentric owners, like we did with Ken Bates in the past, it makes the club erratic; you might win the odd knockout cup or two, but you're too volatile an environment to harness a sustainable league championship challenge

Who - who answer nobody haha😅

Amorim.... We need to get him....

Oh they know...

De Zerbi is not the answer. We are in a downward spiral. Our new owners want a yes man and it won’t bring any success.

Frank was pretty successful and he knows nothing about despite a long career in it

It's Xabi Alonso they already knew

Any yes man would do.

Hansi Flick...

why isn't a *mourinho trilogy* spoken about? he's more accomplished than all those managers combined, and also Mourinho is available! Bring back the special one and he'll turn this squad around and suit boelhys pumping and dumping of managers lol. Does ESPN hate mourinho because he chose *skysports* to do punditry over them??? lol!

What about give the chance to Craig Burley or Steve let see how good this 2 are since they talk a lot in studio.

Poch OUT! Kompany IN!

I am finally happy, Poch is a small coach that is why he accepted this stupid job of babysitting a whole bunch of kids. The other top coaches did not accept it. A coach got to build his own team like Clopp, guardiola, Postecolglu and so on. The babies can't even get some minutes at lower team, yet they keep buying them and expect the coach make them champions. Now for sure they are looking for an 18-year-old Brazilian to be the next coach.

Chelsea want a yes man who has no say in transfers

This is just utter nonsense 😂

I don't get why Pochettino needs to leave the club at least he is not like lampard who keep on losing
