Chelsea Thread - 2023/24

Absolute basket case of a club

I can see why it would be tempting for him, and not just in terms of a huge increase in his salary. The opportunity to manage a big club would turn anyone's head. But he should think carefully before going there, if offered the job. Two words; Graham Potter. He did brilliantly at Brighton, same as McKenna has done at Ipswich. But Chelsea is a huge step up from Brighton and Ipswich. Potter couldn't hack it; would McKenna fare any better?

Being totally serious, I truly believe Boehly played 'fifa' and googled football websites who rank players (with pointless and meaningless stats) and went and splashed money on players he'd convinced himself were 100% going to be the best players in the world.
....and if the McKenna rumours turn out to be true, that this w/end convinced himself, that having promoted Ipswich twice, McKenna is destined to be better than Pep.
I really think the bloke is that stupid!

I actually feel sorry for Chelsea fans.
Shaping into a good team and with a few judicious transfers in the Summer they could be in with a shout next season.
And then...

Saw that. Goalkeeping is the weakest position in that England squad

Left back says hi too!

I think vinny would do well at Chelsea.
He's needs better players and a bigger squad to fulfil his philosophy on how he wants to play.
He'd get that at Chelsea with the current squad.

He’s also get a maniac as an owner.

Agree, no sane person would work under Boehly. Maybe Big Sam, Bruce or Warnock could be tempted.

What is it with Chelsea and sacking managers, the managers office should have a revolving door.

If Vinny takes the job, I can see this happening :(

I love Vinny but the Chelsea job is beyond him.

It's to be avoided like the plague if anyone has any common sense!
