We was not that bad with maresca. I think the players have giving up.

That is the truth. I don't care what they say about this summer, it was the same said years ago, and last summer. These guys need to go!

Agreed men, what a travesty this whole thing. And we got fooled, but then again we had little choice because under the condition things happend. It was a force sell and the one doing the selling just went for the highest bidder.

I said the same thing like Enzo and Cucu, Maresca was doing a good job, he just need it to be back up but these guys don't care. Hence the whole situation and sadly the good players that we have are figuring that out. It's abandon ship from here on.

I wonder how much we will get for him? The problem selling him though is that we will not get a good replacement. One thing about the mid is we need creativity. I love Caicedo but we can't have more players like him.. It's good to have one for cover but we need creativity in the mid and who can that be for us? No one. Maybe Elliot? But I'm not sure if he is creative enough, more like a Caiceco players, we need creativity ala Fabregas to help us unlock team. Will this board do that? No they will get some 18 year old out there....

You guys remember when Chelsea fans save the day in the Super League? Yeah if they turn up again they can make a difference. What a massive moment:

Interesting at the end he said in the USA no teams are able to be own by private equity. Said the most is 30%. But in Europe is all open, and yes that's true that is the problem of being owned by private equity.

We all knew Terry had no smartness to him into how he said things. Brilliant diffender but not smart in expression. As opposed to Lampard, men I love that guy as a person and player. And I'm happy that he is doing good, I always thought he was better to be at our club as some kind of director. His first season with us showed how good of a vision he has for spotting talent. Much better then Winstanely and company. But sadly these owners don't think like that or see that info.

Obvious because Maresca was like Pep in the way they instructed how players to be position and some players thrive in this. Otheres don't like it. But once that went and you get a downgrade like Liam, who the board loved and gave 6 years then I'm sure the players now realize that the board have no clue what they are doing and want out. I don't blame them...however it's never cool to down tools as people often say.

Maybe that's why they will sell him now because he spoke agains them?

I would also add that is the way we are doing it. Because you have other multi-club teams, like city. But we just come and treated them as a b team which is not what is done elsewhere in the multi club model....or the perception of it that is.

By the way I asked AI about the Todd and Egg difference, and this is what I found: The relationship between Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital's Behdad Eghbali has been described by insiders as "irreconcilable," leading to a boardroom civil war where both sides have reportedly explored buying the other out. The friction stems from fundamental "cultural differences" in how they believe a multi-billion pound football club should be managed. Management Style: Delegation vs. Micromanagement Todd Boehly (Hands-Off): Based on his experience with the LA Dodgers, Boehly prefers a model of delegation. He wants to appoint a "CEO of Football" or high-level experts and let them work with complete autonomy. Behdad Eghbali (Hands-On): Eghbali prefers a highly active role, requiring sporting directors to report directly to him on a day-to-day basis. Boehly’s camp has reportedly accused Eghbali of "micromanaging" the sporting department Sporting Strategy: Proven Stars vs. "Pure" Youth Boehly's View: While he supports buying young talent, he believes in balancing the squad with experienced, proven elite players (like Raheem Sterling or even high-profile targets like Neymar) to provide immediate leadership. He also values stability and famously wanted to keep Mauricio Pochettino after his strong finish to the 2023–24 season. Eghbali's View: He is deeply committed to a strict data-driven, youth-only model with long-term contracts. He is seen as more "trigger-happy" with managers, believing they must fit perfectly into the pre-set data structure or be replaced. Infrastructure: New Site vs. Stamford Bridge Stadium Split: A major point of contention is the future of the stadium. Boehly has reportedly favored a move to Earl’s Court to build a brand-new, world-class arena from scratch. Stamford Bridge Rebuild: Eghbali and Clearlake are said to prefer redeveloping or expanding the existing Stamford Bridge site, despite the massive logistical and legal challenges involved. Because Clearlake Capital holds a 61.5% majority share compared to Boehly’s roughly 13% personal stake, Eghbali currently holds the superior position in this power struggle More info from: https://sports.yahoo.com/boehly-vs-eghbali-battle-Chelsea-050000736.html If this is true then our only hope is for Egg to go and Todd take over, because it is true he has done good with sports teams. Egg is the guy that needs to go.

Would love some new owners but the problem is that they will ask a lot and with everything this group has done I don't think the value will be higher if not lower. So I don't know how they will sell unless we get relegated a la possibility with Spurs. Yes I had enough of these owners. They will redeem themselves if they say hey we have screw up the first part let's make it right and get people who where at the club before to help us. Something like that. But I doubt it.

Yup sacking him just confirms they have no clue, they just don't know what they are doing. Hence at this point i will check out as well and not expect anything from us until the board are changed which won't happen or the owners leave which won't happen for a while. Poch and Maresca where good managers and not to accept that they help improve us despite their idiocy has just put the final nail in the coffin with this board for me. Even if they somehow find a good manager it will be like Poch and Maresca, they don't give no credit and think is their doing and go back to Liam type of coaches and bad buys. So in the end no point to look anything forward with this board and owners until they are gone.
