Can’t see Potter being a good fit, he is an excellent coach but in the last 2 jobs has taken a long time to get his ideas across and the team gelling. For England there will be immediate pressure and having limited time with players on the grass hard to see him having the desired impact.
Until a decent manager comes in with a system he wants to play and picks players to fit it rather than names the media expect to appear then we will always fall short
i think everyone feels different, Sami thought was a strange appointment at the time and did not fill you with confidence early on, Potter I was nervously optimistic about but didn’t generate much excitement, RDZ felt very Gus and was exciting and loved the way he talked the clubs expectations...
I have got a really good feeling about this guy, seems really grounded, smart and genuinely excited to be here. Time will tell but think the club may have struck gold here.
We hold the cards here and this is just posturing to get the largest possible fee for him, the player wants the move we want the big fee Stuttgart just need to get their wallet out and pay up
He can f*** off and enjoy being another serial Chelsea failure following in the footsteps of the other money grabbing lump Danny Drinkwater who chose money over career.
As for Chelsea what a weird bunch of stalkers and everything that is rotten and shit about the modern game as they squirm and...
If piece the reports together from various sources then it looks like we were all set to complete a swap deal with medicals booked and Chelsea got wind and made enquiries and now the player wants to hold out to see if Chelsea move to make offer and whilst this goes on our deal now stalled.
By that definition he truly was the Zaha replacement which means he will now sign a new deal to stay at palace for the next 10 years on Ballon d'Or level wages
Going to be impossible to replace his running, leadership, assists and goals a huge loss but can’t wish the bloke anything but the best if returning to Germany is what he wants
This is why we love the club such a bold and interesting appointment genuinely can’t wait for the new season and we still have the fixtures to come, the inevitable meltdown about the new shirt design, Chelsea no doubt unsettling one of our top players, Groß will he stay or return to Germany...
That’s my suspicion there were rumours of him going last summer and would not be surprised if some sort of gentlemen’s contract that extension would keep Pascal for another year and would move this summer recouping a small fee for him to go wherever he wants.
Hope I am wrong but am expecting...
Oh no not the dreaded promise of 5 signings in a single window, have we got Shane McFaul on standby in case we need to get the 5th over the line late in the window?
As fans we all felt the impact of that night away in Rome it took all of the momentum out of the side and we had a serious hangover after it. The injury list last season was ridiculous and it’s not just about volume but our best starters and in key positions where we had no depth. Each week it...
Nailed it football fans are fickle if he came back and we showed that kind of form again all would be forgotten.
Like many I would rather we went a level up with someone else but with nobody seemingly available and some of the names being kicked around as alternatives sometimes it’s better the...
Could be a disastrous move for Roberto it’s not like the elite clubs are knocking down his door since he put himself in the market for a new role. With most of the hot seats now filled he may find himself out of work next season
This will run until the end of next week United won’t make announcement on Ten Hag until after the cup final, Chelsea are talking to lots of candidates with McKenna being one of those and we have probably made a strong statement that we want him as first choice.
His stock is high so however...
