Too soon for him yet but Rosenior looks fantastic and doing great things at Strasbourg.

Would be a better project manager than Maresca.

INCOMING?

No.

Not Guardiola, not Arteta, not Maresca, not Rosenoir, not any other bloody classroom textbook tippy toe tap around at the back managers.

Other than that I'd give anyone a chance that wants footballers to run their heart's out, press with real intent, tackle the opposition to win the ball and run a lot off the ball to get in behind. Anybody that wants to do this is worth a shout.

Don;t lump Rosenior in with that lot, he's actually got potential to be exciting.

At this point I want a proper, wholesome meat and potatoes manager, not some single dainty little canapé sort of manager 😠

So you are on team @Zeta as well then? ;)

If Ancelotti is leaving Real Madrid at the end of the season, I'd take him in a heartbeat. I think that he could get us playing some good football and he's someone the players can look up to and respect for all that he has achieved. But, he won't fit the board and SDs cunning plans.

No he hasn't. He is having his moment in the sun. He has been cr@p throughout his brief managerial career including spouting classroom textbook bollox as a Championship pundit before getting the Hull job.

We’d have to sack the sporting directors to get Ancelotti.

So it would be a win-win move.

Instead of buying Gyorkeres we instead spent the same amount on two that came from Sporting’s nursery. One of which won’t even come next summer.

They’re behaving like they’re untouchable unfortunately.

f**king depressing to think we might start yet another season with a new manager, with players coming and going , and expecting anything different to what has happened since the investors took control of Chelsea.

Won’t find it any easier either as they will immediately be jumped into the club World Cup.

Maybe Gyokeres just didn't want to join us, honestly wouldn't blame him.

Doesn’t bold well on the directors either way.

I would also be depressed to still see baby Pep on the sideline opening day.

Me too. I hate the constant hiring & firing but would take just about anyone over Maresca. Depressing that even the likes of Fulham, Palace & Brentford have a coach who is better than ours.

My hopes have been pinned on @Zeta since he told us he's getting his badges. Plus I know of no other candidate who dresses his baby in a Chelsea onesie. Perfect.

It's a bit optimistic to title this thread as " who would you want as our next " permanent " manager. Unless 1 season counts as permanent ! 😂

He was absolutely brilliant at Derby and their fans were upset he didn't stay longer.

Took over Hull following a 19th place finish and took them to a 7th place finish. Guess where they are this year without him... 20th...

Do you lie on purpose or do you honestly believe what you type? Both equally as worrying.
