I'm getting confused now...

Still up to speed and ready to sing the 'wake me up before you go go' bit

but then the line...

'who needs Potter/Bruno/Fat Frank/Full Kit wanker'

Is getting crowded.

But anyway. We've still got Roberto.

It’s just so strange. This is a guy who failed outright at Chelsea. He then failed outright at Everton. He has been a failure in management, and yet somehow out of all the candidates in the world, he’s the guy they choose to manage their £600m+ squad.

I know it’s only temporary, but the mind absolutely boggles at this decision. It’s classic pandering. The fans hated Potter? Quick, get an ex-player who the fans like!

Boehly doesn’t have a clue what he is doing. Not a scooby.
Baz Glendenning is of the opinion what makes The Todd different in American sports ownership, is that he prides himself as being 'the (self appointed) smartest man in the room'.
Able to find value where others don't necessarily look.

That may be true over there.
You only have to look up the road to see an example of where it could be true over here.

With the exception of at least one owner.

Oh and what a surprise that man has already reached into The Todd's pocket and helped himself to £90,000,000, while he was still clearing passport control.

Haven’t seen it reported anywhere as to the impact on Bruno and Roberts, assuming they will be out of Fat Franks brining in his own team?
Imagine having 'part of Frank Lampard's coaching team' on your CV.

The doors that must open for you!!

Corrected for you.

Really pleased with this appointment from our perspective. They have a squad capable of winning most of their remaining fixtures if the right manager can organise and inspire. Frank is not that man. Rumoured to have had half a dozen favourites the last time he was at Chelsea and shunned the players he couldn’t deal with (over 23’s in general).

We have more of a chance at Stamford Bridge with Frank rather than Potter or Bruno imo.
Not to sure about that Potter over thought everything playing really weird formations trying to shoe horn Cucurella and Chilwell into the same starting 11. Mount will be back in possibly hitting form and wouldn’t be surprised to see PA upfront scoring the goals. Still we will see.

So you buy a football club for £4.25 BILLION, spend another HALF A BILLION+ on players, and within a year you've got Frank Lampard there as manager :lolol:

This goes beyond cluess. Its rampant self-harm. Boehly has shot off both his feet, then turned the gun round and blown off one of his arms, given himself a nasty papercut, then fallen into a vat of shark-infested Gatorade.

Chelsea are a total laughing stock this season, its been absolutely wonderful to watch it all unravel.

JT does seem to have been curiously silent during this whole 'process'. Seems to me to be the perfect Chelsea dream team for shits and giggles like: Fat Frank and Full Kit Wanker :lol:
John Terry would be well up for the Chelsea manager's position. Their squad is huge, just think of all those young wives and girlfriends JT would be sniffing around. Be like heaven for him (and for the tabloid journos!).

It gets worse though.


Re-hiring someone who sued the club and was driven out of their rival for playing boring football.

Is Lampard really willing to give up his safe job at Kensington High School under 16s side to take that job on again ?

The ridiculous ' crowd ' pleaser appt for fat Frank tells you that none of the alleged leading candidates want the job till the summer and/or they want to see what other jobs pop up.

With Lampard in now do we know what's happening to Bruno, Roberts and Hamberg? As much as I want them to be miserably dismissed I also want someone to boo at the bridge on 15th! :)
