I still voted "no", but at this point no one can fix this damage, so sacking him tomorrow won't help anything, but he still must leave at the end of the season. He is responsible for the current unbalanced and weak squad, and perhaps another manager doesn't deserve this calvary.

Best time to sack him and bring another manager is at the end of the season, that will avoid the negative talk in the press impacting the perforances "Chelsea are bad guys because are firing managers again", and will also avoid another Rafael Benitez like appointment.

I agree with you here, I think if he's going to go it will be the end of the season. I can see us finishing above mid table, with the odd good performance, but nothing that will be enough to keep him here long term.

January panic buy mode will be in effect I think too, but the price inflation and lack of world class options makes that problematic.

If I were to guess I'd say the wheels are already in motion in terms of getting a summer replacement. We just don't know it yet.

If Jose stays it would be madness to buy in January ,,IMO the options are sack him now or write off this season completely and wait till next year to restart

The fact he has stayed this long has convinced me that he will not be sacked until either a.) the end of the season, or b.) it becomes mathematically impossible to qualify for the CL.

The latter needs a monster run of wins, and utd, city, arsenal, liverpool to have awful runs of form.

Take a serious at M'gladbach, they've risen from the ashes, after the coach who took them to the CL for the first time in ages resigned and the new coach, relatively unknown, has made them play smoothly since. I understand the sentimentality for him, but come on, you can't look past the damage his coaching's causing at an alarming rate, that even the most serene person would be challenged by the frustrating soap opera BS the club is currently in. We're even 1000 times worse than the likes of Dortmund last year and Moyes' United at this point of the season. The tactics are so useless for a squad of this caliber. His coaching is archaic and non-dynamic. He's got low flexibility.

Right now, we're looking at future humiliations by the likes of f**king United, Leicester, Tottenham, Watford, Sunderland, etc as a given. If you take a moment to think about those upcoming games, do you honestly feel an air optimism about them? I really doubt it. Many are rightfully being behind him, but the sooner he's out, the much more time the club will get to regenerate and control the colossal damage that's been inflicted so far.

I've actually voted differently in this poll and went with 'No'.

The reason I wanted Jose sacked about a month and a half ago was that at the time (I thought) top 4 finish was still salvageable. Obviously, that is no longer the case, so there is little motivation to sack him right now, imo.

Clearly still has to go at the end of the season, though, and the board has a lot of time to plan for everything so there can be no excuses.

I agree there's no hope but I want him gone for other reasons. I'm sick of the BS. The mind games, the immature garbage. The tantrums. I don't find it endearing or interesting. It's extremely childish. I want a manager who can just shut up and manage the team sans drama. Chelsea doesn't just need a new manager, it needs a culture change.

He traded Mata, Lukaku and KDB for a Capital One and league title, is this worth it we might have to ask ourselves when Lukaku earn his 50m transfer to PSG or KDB is included in World 11 in a couple of years.

KDB yes but Mata has been bang average since early 2013.

I find the arrogance that we won't be dragged into a relegation battle pretty disturbing

Our form is atrocious

What right do we have not to get relegated?

I know I will be ridiculed for this but we have steadily dropped down the table - how low do we have to sink, before it becomes an option?
