So Julian Nagelsmann was supposed to have the gig and he didn't get it. Was under the impression...this is the second time this has happened with Boehly...

Have to say I am not very impressed by our owner, directors....

Seems like the negotiations are a bit of tea parties where you just throw out ideas and suggestions. 

Our image as negotiatiors is in jeopardy very soon.

They are clowns 🤡 .

I remember when I use take the piss out of other clubs for being ran like a circus now we are literally a circus.

We use to be chaotic but it was controlled chaos, this is none of that.

yes - brands, governments and individuals are impacted by public perceptions. 

Yes but not in all cases especially when it comes to football. Do you think sponsors were put off by those berks on ATV or whatever it's called and thought we'll pull our sponsorship of Arsenal  because of fan unrest in fact the opposite I watched one clip Arsenal lost a game and that Robbie bloke went straight to the camera and did an advert for Harry's razors.

It's taken a massive backlash by the general public against the betting industry for football sponsorship to be taken off football shirts it's not happening for a while either. The betting industry is seen in a terrible light yet there all over the place at football grounds having ads on during England games to a peak audience and millionaires like Harry Redknapp, Mourinho and Peter Crouch should be ashamed of themselves doing adverts for them while people are losing everything and in some cases their lives because they can't cope.

I don't get it, after the sh*t show of a potter appointment why are you annoyed that our board are doing their due diligence with our next appointment when it's imperative we get it right this time? Most people don't show interest in a job and get annoyed that they have to interview for it, just screams arrogance that a bloke who got the sack from Bayern last month thinks he should be able to walk into the job at Chelsea no questions asked.

Haven't you been to any interview when you thought that you'd done well and had a good chance to get the job to then find out that you didn't?  If anything, I am not impressed with Nagelsmann thinking that the job was his and that the interview process was just a formality. Maybe he didn't take it seriously enough.

I think that it is good that the owners are taking the interviewing process seriously. We will see whether they appoint the right man for the job or not, that is always going to be a risk, but at least they are not going by the hype this time and are taking it slowly to appoint whoever they think fits the role well.

Could have posted this in any number of threads but this is a good a place as any. The minutes of the latest Chelsea Supporters Trust meeting.

Heard his trying to talk to Mount personally to keep him at the club. Whether you like Boehly or not, I do appreciate that he is trying to convince a player like Mount who means a lot to fans to stay

I was disappointed we didn't get Nagelsmann a few days ago but as I'm reading how he conducted himself in this hiring process I'm kind of glad we steered away from him. His decorum just shows how arrogant he was and he would have been bound to clash with the board at some point and we would be where were at last summer again.

If Nagelsman goes to Tottenham and performs much better next season than we do under Pochettino, it'll be another walking PR nightmare for them unfortunately. 

this is brilliant

Pochettino's impending appointment is the start of the club’s transformation from competitor to 'entertainment brand'. Imagine appointing the only manager on your short-list who never won anything of note.

And nagelsmann won what? The bundesliga with Bayern Munich? What's the difference between that and ligue 1?

The only manager on the shortlist??

what have Kompany and the celtic bloke won that is "of note"? 

I don't want Pochettino - but he has won more of note than the others in the shortlist.

The only reason why Boehly wants pochetino is that he is a yes man, the same reason he wanted Potter. Nagelsman wanted control of the transfers which makes sense since he would have to make them fit his system.

I really miss that shy Russian.

Feels a bit like come the end of his career Harry Kane should be considered a failure just because he did not win anything of note.

When the truth is Harry Kane is actually one of the best strikers English football has had, irrespective of how many trophies he's won, or not, but unfortunately for him he spent his best years for a sh*t club.

I'm glad they're taking their time to secure the best manager for the job and not just chucking their money at the next flashy thing. Not their fault is Nagelsmann thought his connection with Vivell would get him the job.

Do you think Boehly controls our transfer targets? I doubt he'd even heard of Mudryk or Enzo before January. He hired Vivell and Stewart for a reason.

Err actually Todd Lasso only signed Enzo because he won the world cup and signed Mudryk because he read Arsenal wanted him🙄

That's not the point. The point is the managers had a say in most transfers. Why buy players if u don't know whether it fits in with the managers philosophy.  

It should be the club who dictates the philosophy.

He shouldn't be made a victim of that, he could have ran down his contract and had the pick of clubs like Lewandowski did.

And that's before I mention he's flopped in every final when he's had the chance.

One of the best strikers, and the biggest mong.

He also has the biggest tongue.

What colour is the carpet in the boardroom? how are the coffees? Do they give finger foods at meetings?

Hadnt realised you were a club insider, and knew what past regime and managers did and didnt do.

You dont actually believe that a billionaire invests £60m (ish) in a player solely because another club were after him do you?
