Chelsea Thread - 2022/23 | Pochettino confirmed as new manager

[eyalluvitt]

Their results since we played at St. James' suggest that our point there was a very good one.

Same with Brighton, disappointed with our performance despite the win, but with each passing week the win looks better and better

Potter should be grateful Abramovic no longer owns Chelsea as he'd be sacked tomorrow

Yet another horrific performance. That’s like 4-5 in a row in the league now. Lots of work for Potter.

We will see now if there’s hedge fund owners are true to there word and will give Potter time?

Will they want to give him time or is he just not up to it at a big club ?

Come on he has only been there two minutes he needs at least next season then the season after too! They put the work in tonight just came up against a team with momentum

I wasnt judging him, just going by some Chelsea fans comments i have heard & they aint impressed

Potter's Brighton were a bit boring but in a way that saw them overperform because they were defensively solid enough to pick up points and sometimes wins despite the low goalscoring output. Potter's Chelsea are just boring.

I know De Zerbi is in the early stages there but I feel that they'll enjoy his football a lot more even if they end up finishing a few positions lower than last season. People are too quick to forget some of the absurdly long winless runs Potter had them suffering.

Are The fans behind Potter? I've read that he's struggling to find his best 11 and his best formation and playing players out of position??

I said it time and time again, he isn’t cut for the top level and everyone was overrating him.

Yes, he did well with Brighton, but when things weren’t going smoothly for periods he got such an easy ride compared to other managers and clubs. He also enjoyed deploying his players to kick fuck out of better opposition than his, and because they were ‘plucky Brighton’ they got away with more. Remember the 3-2 we lost against them?

I may well live to eat these comments, but my guess is he will be long gone from Chelsea before he has chance to prove that there. Either that, or he’ll be a Pochettino type.
