  • Chelsea sack Potter
  • Chelsea sack Potter
    surprise yet not a surprise if you know w I m .. brought in to steady the ship after a lot left and lots came in, not given any time, but what manager nowadays is ? .. Nagelsmann introduced as the new man tomorrow ?
  • Just absolutely bizarre. Todd Boehly playing Football Manager with the amount of signings they've made and it never looked like working.

    Potter looked a long way out of his depth , but his Brighton side needed 18 months or so to really click. 
  • Grrrr... Hope Palace dont try and get either Rodgers or Potter in now.

    Potter to West Ham? They've wanted an excuse to get rid of Moyes for months. 
  • Potter to Leicester??

    Imagine Chelsea are gonna try and get Nagelsmann now

    Be remarkable that we could possibly end up with a Champions League Semi-Final with two Managers facing off against the club they started the season in charge of

    both could do a lot worse and need a change .. but very unusual for a sacked prem manager to walk strait into a new job in the prem, especially an Englishman
  • I would assume Leicester have someone ready to go and Potter won't be in consideration there. Quite who they end up going for I don't know? Benitez until the end of the season?

    If i was Leicester then i'd be straight on the phone to Potter.

    He hasn't become a bad manager just because Chelsea spent 500m and likely dumped players on him he didn't even ask for.

    Oh I'd definitely be on the phone to Potter, I just wonder if they already have someone very advanced in talks/agreed already. 

    Todd Boehly playing real life Football Manager as a transfer policy doesn't make Potter a bad manager, at least at Leicester he'd probably have a more balanced squad. 
  • Chelsea paid 22m compensation to Brighton to get him and his coaching staff. Money well spent there!
  • When you spend £600m on players £22m is chicken feed.
  • How the other half live, feel sorry for Potter though. Typical impatient chairman and players who are overpaid and mostly don't give a feck except a few like our old boy Gallagher.

    You can't buy success but we'll probably never find out. 
  • For all the mess Chelsea as a club are in, it's disappointing that 2 promoted British managers in Potter and Nathan Jones both failed so badly. 
    Frustratingly people wont look at the fact that both Chelsea | Southampton are a mess - Its not like things have got better for the latter since Jones got sacked.

    All Chelsea seem to have done, with that splurge on new players, is marginalise their existing decent players, without solving the problem of the lack of a number 9
  • Forest release a statement to confirm Steve Cooper remains their manager.

  • It is rare you take over at a club because they are doing well and are in a good place !! 
  • This smells of straw clutching to me...
  • Chelsea's league season is over. They have a big CL tie coming up soon. Lampard's been brought in to win that as that's the only way they will be playing European football next season. 
  • Truly bizarre. If their plan is to bring Lampard in for 2 months then they might as well have just kept Potter.

    I get that he's a club legend but are the players going to suddenly turn on performances for a manager they know won't be there next season?

    indifferent at Derby, Sacked by Chelsea, failed at Everton .. Lampard's Chelsea return would surely be a true non-blasphemous  Easter resurrection 
  • What odds would you have got on Hodgson and Lampard returning to their old jobs six months ago 

    What next? Nigel Adkins back at Southampton? 
  • Mick McCarthy gone at Blackpool.
