Of course we have,we’ve spent months deciding who we wanted will have considered a few options and decided Maresca is the best available all things considered. Thats why he has the job. The impatience of bluemoon posters for s big announcement isn’t the clubs problem.

That’s true. Doesn’t make me feel any less impatient though!

I reckon they've been "succession planning" for this for about 5 years, so long as his other spells away went well, which they largely did.

City/Khaldoon/others don't make snap decisions, they most likely knew Pep wouldn't stay beyond 10 years, so have been getting their plans ready for some time.

It's getting to a point where City has to pay up or move on. We all know Chelsea will not play ball and wants full composition because he still has 3 and a half years left on his contract.

If City feel he's the best option, then get it done ? It would be the same if we wanted a manager who's in a job.
The fact that City had an interest in him, Chelsea now holds all the cards and will say we told you so

The contract situation seems unclear. If he left , gardening leave or not then as per normal
Jobs the contract would end. He would have it noted how long before he could get another job too.
If they terminated his contract and paid him for the rest of it and then they suspect the City job was always a potential then that seems it may be a reason to ask for compensation.
Can only speculate.

It's widely been noted that they didn't terminate his contract, in fact most of this is in the public domain, and a little less widely known whether any compensation was paid, most reports seem to suggest he didn't take any.

The difficult bit seems to be the reports City had been in contact with him in October and December before he left them, as that would be "tapping up".

Understand. In the real world job market this is what headhunters do or former colleagues do all the time. You resign, giving notice etc and your contract ends and everyone moves on…… football is a funny old game I think someone once said.
 
It appears from the outside that the ball is very much in Chelseas court. They know we've chosen Maresca and now that Iraola is out of the picture as a possibility it will have strengthened their hand a little. They fell away when he left and they'll figure in some compensation that we'll have to come up with for them missing out on CL. Chelsea will likely be in no hurry and will be happy to wait to see what their lawyers recommend. It's all a bit of a mess really. Hopefully it'll be sorted out soon.

It'll be sorted in due course.

I don't think the Iraola appointment affects the situation regards chelsea, as we didn't show any interest.

As for chelsea "falling away", that was purely down to the appointment they made, that was nothing to do with City. They can't claim anything for not qualifying for europe, Maresca may not have got them there either.
