The Manager Merry-go-Round

[Bradesmaen]

I'm surprised they haven't been linked back to Potter

Chelsea?

 

[jd2010]

Chelsea?

Speaking of going back to the well

 

[Jatz]

Really odd decision to essentially curb all momentum Poch had gained through that second half of the season.

All the chopping and changing won’t be any good, surely.

 

[chef]

I thought Poch was doing a bad job, but he did turn it around. Strange one, but it's Chelsea

Either the decision was already made before the last month or Poch wants out because he won't get a say on the in and out goings.

 

[chef]

Sounds like he and RDZ are off for the same reasons.

 

[Thistle]

Wowee. I had changed my tune over the past few weeks and was excited to see if Poch could kick on with the team next season

 

[jd2010]

Gallagher being sold before June 30 then?

 

[chef]

Gallagher being sold before June 30 then?

I don't think it needs to be done by end of June but you'd think he and Chalobah were a couple Poch wanted to keep. So yeah, he'll be at Spurs next season which sucks.

 

[DBAH0]

Feels like a real trend and a power struggle currently generally.

Managers want more control over transfers, and the DOF / Sporting Director model is very in currently.

Winstanley is a Bloom protégé after all.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

What an odd decision. Didn’t they have the third best record this calendar year?

Who lied to who about how much say they'd have with poch and Chelsea?

Poch has always wanted a big say in transfers, wrongly to the extent he demands imo

Chelsea have clearly set out a plan for a head coach.

Isn't there a weird cut off date mid window the sales need to go through by? From the forest and Johnson situation that's what I gathered, they'd have been better off selling for less earlier than holding out for as much as they got from us.

What assisting Ange?

 

[jd2010]

What assisting Ange?

He means Gallagher

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

He means Gallagher

Ah yes. Although Villa linked with him as well.

 

[chef]

4th.

We've already made a fair few sales this financial year so I don't think it'll matter. I think it's more the media twerking it.

Oh good so they are pushing forward with selling Gallagher.

****ing idiotic.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Blame FFP/the ridiculous spending. The whole pure profit thing means most clubs will just use academies as Fixed Term Deposits

 

[Misher]

Gallagher is crap anyway

Most clubs would be very happy with a first year manager whose team improved by 19 points, improved its GD by 23, improved its league position by 6 spots, qualified for Europe, and made a Cup final and a semifinal

But at Chelsea you get fired leave by mutual consent.

That’s a bit of a baffling decision. Poch did so much better in the second half of the season.

Sounds like Poch was pretty keen to leave if things weren't done his way so there's really no point staying together. Sounds amicable.

Those last 5 games really changed the landscape.

The good old "man of the club" contract clause at Barca.
