I’m really confused, I was for sure no fan of Potter and wanted him gone, but what is the point of sacking him to bring Lampard here as a manager? Why? What was the purpose? We sucked before and will suck under Lampard too.

I just don’t get it 

To galvanise the fans ! 

As we lose 10-0 on aggregate to Real Madrid. At least we'll be galvanised

Why couldn't James get onto that pass from Kepa? Yes, it was a sh*t pass, but it's not like it went straight out of play. If that is Kante, he turns and makes an effort to keep that in. James is as bad as anybody when it comes to giving up when things are tough. For a so called world class player that loves Chelsea, I would expect him to working harder than most.

Agree. James never gives me the sense that he will roll up the sleeves and fight for the cause. Not a "win at all costs" mentality

He didn't manage enough at a lower level. Unfortunately for him, we came knocking at the door. Well, it's good news for his bank account, but his managerial career will have to take a big blip for it. If he wants to be a manager he's going to have to accept Championship Teams at the very least.

Or given his recent track record of lucky appointments he'll probably be managing Manchester City come next season. 

He shoud've became an assistant to an elite coach like Arteta, that way he can actually learn some tactics first

I think a lot of people underestimate how our large squad is having an effect on the team as a whole.

600million on top of a CL winning sqaud to be close to a pretty good team? 

 

Give your head a wobble

Give my head a wobble!!!! You think IM the problem here!!!?  Its about time we started to realise a few things 1. We are NOT a top 6 club at the moment 2. We are going to need TIME to build 3. swapping managers every few months is NOT going to work!!!!! Whoever comes in next (and I hope to god its somebody half decent) we MUST GIVE THEM TIME!!!! That means NOT sacking them when we are mid-table after 15 games!

We actually looked much better against Liverpool with Bruno!

Worse than what we were? Did you watch any of the last few games under Potter? We were playing decent stuff at times. Couldn't score - but the football was decent and we were creating chances.

Was a million miles away from this dross

We were creating loads of chances and playing good football , it's all been thrown away .

Dunno man, sounds like loser mentality to me. 

Same every week - other team always wants it more 

Enzo, you deserve better

Yes, we had 29 shots against Villa TWENTY NINE shots and no goals, at least then we could see the problem we had.......................now we have nothing.

Hiring sh*t managers isn't going to work either. Just a thought.

We looked even better the game before that against villa when we created 25+ chances.

Short term ism from our fans ignored that....WE WANT RESULTS NOW!!!!!

Brilliant ball from Enzo.  It ends with Pulisic falling to the floor, but it was still a good ball from Enzo.

look on the bright side - everybody wants to play us

We were very good at passing the ball from side to side. 

We created less big chances this season than Leicester.

Brighton will put at least 4 past us.

Some of the worst, most aimless passing I've ever seen from a Chelsea team. Every single player out there could have their performance summed up with either "Embarrassing" or "Pathetic".

I can't actually believe the amount of money these owners have wasted on absolute dross.

We’ve been poor for so long. Really for me it goes back to the 1-1 against Burnley back in 2021. We soldiered on with Tuchel, but it was poor. I remember the preseason game against arsenal in Orlando - we didn’t lay a finger on them and knew then the problems were deep. 

Tuchel battled on, and unfortunately to me the Potter period was even more regression.  
I honestly don’t know where we go from here. I guess it starts with a real manager this summer 

We look worse than Frank's Everton. 

 

 

SACK THE BOARD! 🤣

Well we've tried Tuchel and Potter - both managers held in extremely high regard, if they're too 'sh*t' then I'm not sure who is going to turn us into challengers overnight!?

Yeah I don't get why people are having a go at the Potter out fans, none of us thought we were replacing him with Frank Lampard 😂

Indeed. If I knew that I’d have been firmly in the ‘no sack’ camp ffs 

Dawson has been excellent
