Chelsea thread 2020/21

I would have him at city as peps no 2 & in 2 years when pep goes we have lampard ready to take over

I thought that too, he'd be more than an adequate replacement for Our Tater!

The Chelsea youth players will be shipped out now

yep. They’ve been their best players as well. Mount, Abraham and others will get dropped for big money signings

Mrs Vienna phoned me this morning to tell me. I was shocked; it’s a ridiculous decision, IMHO.

I know that they haven’t been doing very well recently, but this is a crazy season with crazy results and he should have been given more time to get get things right.

As for his apparent replacement, I’m not convinced that Tuchel is a top drawer coach and I think the managerial Merry go round might be making another turn at the Kremlin before long.

Was there spend in the summer not classed as big?

It definitely was, but gone are the days of sustained record breaking transfers from Roman.

I also think they should have been more patient with him, the table is so tight that a couple of wins could have put them in top 4,

I think they used Ole as a reference, I am sure if City and Liverpool were top of table this might not have happened.

Lampard spent about £300m

A big spend that Frank hasn’t delivered on hence his sacking, but Chelsea haven’t spent a relative amount in a while.

It's not like Chelsea were out of touch with the top 4 so odd decision.

I guess if Tuchel can get them chumps league then it will be viewed as a good move.

Maybe they should have tried harder to compete with United on VAR's transfer from Anfield.

Spent 200 mil ++ last summer

Please don’t make me answer this point again!:)

Be interesting to see how Chelsea fans have reacted. For me he’s a top bloke doing ok. As someone has already stated if Chelsea are looking at rags then possibly some logic, but if noddy can get that lot up there I’m sure Frank can, whereas Noddy completely fucked up CL progress, Frank breezed it

i keep seeing, lampard , we should have him as peps number two, fucking why ? really what the fuck has he done to even get a mention of coming to city, oh hes a nice bloke, so fucking what, he got the managers job at derby for who he was rather than what hes achieved in football management ,and if he felt he was good enough for chelsea then more fool him, if he did become peps no 2 then it will be because he is a worth it, not because he is frank Lampard.

Why did Arteta get the number two job then when he had done nothing up until that point?
