Won't be suprised if we finish the season with Frank lampard as interim manager

LMAO. Better u guys just tell the players to play without manager

[@zdanerf7201]

[@himazhaneez1310]

@mrartdeco But the problem is if they do they might win something which the owners doesn't like These bunch of owners want chelsea to be a mid table team and they were dissapointed we finished sixth instead of 10 th like last season

Most likely disagreements who should leave and who should stay at the club. And in what tactical direction the team should be moving. I suggest check out one of the latest FourFourTwo videos on that

[@ChrisD464]

Would be interesting to see how Thomas Frank gets on at a bigger club. I think he could do a good job if him and the recruitment team are working in harmony but I suppose that could be said for a lot of managers - You can only work with the hardware you have and if it doesn't suit your philosophy then you're always going to be swimming against the tide...

What makes this list even more crazy is that they all play such different brands of football. It's as if the board has just looked at some of the progressive managers out there and said "oh any one of them would work" without any thought on tactics, system or anything remotely focused on a footballing level. I would not be shocked to see whoever gets appointed being sacked before the end of the season, that club is a mess and I don't think their board, or fans realise just how far gone they are.

[@richardliversidge8269]

Oh we most certainly do

[@neilcreamer8207]

I'm hoping they want Maresca and that all the other names are just a smokescreen. Maresca is the only one who plays the style of football the sporting directors supposedly want.

[@RomaInvicta202]

With all due respect for these guys (it's possible to grow into great managers), none of them has experience in coaching at the "highest level", Poch is way more experienced.

[@lucadegabriele6394]

Out of all the options Thomas Frank is the best shout With De Zerbi, Chelsea will end up in the same situation as what happened with Potter Kieran McKenna hasn't had Premier League first-team management experience Enzo Maresca is a nice manager option but I feel it is too soon for him to be managing a big PL club

RDZ, Maresca = Fit the football idea of the SDs. McKenna I don't get. May be as a yes man? Because he dosen't play the style SDs want. Both RDZ and Maresca aren't yes men tho. Interesting to see what they will value most in the end. Football decisions or yes man (Potter 2.0)? If you ask me Maresca will be the new manager. If they have balls and put football first, they will hire RDZ and manage him carefully.

I'm only to convince if Thomas Frank became a new manager of Chelsea instead of other three manager on the final list (I more preferred to see Enzo Maresca and Kieran McKenna stay on their respective current clubs while I let Roberto De Zerbi joined Manchester United over Chelsea because I done to see Chelsea always took players, manager or even a staff from Brighton)

[@PiastTorun]

"Coached in England at a high level" - why are we going in for any of these then? De Zerbi barely fits that bill.

[@user-ps5yv8ws8t]

I am happy that ChelseaFC are out of Europa League because of these owners who are money driven and not TROPHIES DRIVEN. ChelseaFC can lose the play-off matches for the Conference league to focus if they are serious on Premier League, Carling cup and FA competitions. I am waiting for the next head coach and then, wait for what he does and how ChelseaFC 2024/2025 goes before saying anything about the head coach. These owners have not put the fans any position to trust them because of their antecedence with the club. I will watch the matches for next season without any attachment of emotion to the matches. Wish ChelseaFC well in the coming season. Viewing from Ohio, USA.

[@sanmateoflights]
