Pretty much but most people agree that it's much easier to fire the manager then get rid of the entire team.

And being that we are in December. In October not much of a worry because hopefully we can bounce. But the same shenanigans in December is not good.

After Terry retired the only guy I would want as a captain, not Ivanovic.

I remember a year or two Emanolo getting a lot of praise for the job he done in getting young and exciting players. My how the mighty have fallen....

At the board maybe but not Roman. Anyhow the bad atmosphere at Chelsea only last for a little while. It's not like in Italy or other countries where hundreds park outside and are protesting and all that. We will eventually forget about everything as soon as we start winning and playing good.

Well the same has been said about Messi and Ronaldo but they still in the team. Why? Because they win tittles and sell. No way we will sell our best asset. It might bother me if he starts playing good all of a sudden but I will not care if we start winning. That's futbol, you forget about every shenanigans as soon as you start winning again.

You have issues my friend. Nothing to understand, I see how you react. You explode like nothing.

As @Rmpr, he is either a WUM or suffered some some sort of severe schizophrenia. One day he's cold, then the next hot.

The only sense that makes right now is progress. I'm sorry but there's no way a squad like this should be relegation mode. He lost the dressing room and he must go. It's much easier to replace the coach then the entire team. Let's not forget this is the second time it happen, the second time! So we give him money to buy a new squad and then after 3 season lose the dressing room again?

I think most of us feel the same. We feel upset because of how things turned out after last season. I was mostly wanting him to stay at least till the end of the season, but this was beyond absurdity. Much worse then under Carlo bad moment. We are one point above relegation zone for crying out loud, and there was no sign of improvement. So it hurts now but it had to be done.

I think they was backing him. But they didn't expect us to be in this position after that statement. Seriously did you thought this would happen (1 point above relegation zone)? And there was no sign of progress.

Post scandalous Juventus.

This is why I was thinking of starting with someone like Bielsa. Insane man that can help start that identity and then someone can follow. Like what happen at Chile. He started the revolution and then Sampoli has follow.

To be fair all this feels like a reset for me. We can start afresh and focus on what we really want. If you think this is bad, then how do you think Juventus felt when they got relegated? But their board did great work and found a young manager to bring them back to relevance. I think in time we can get back to that feel good attitude we once had buy these coming months are going to be tough. If the board do a good business between now and summer it might help lighten the pain. We should learn from Juventus in times like this.

That's the whole squad. So basically he said screw you guys, if that even is true. I rather get a young manager like Emery next summer and see how it goes. Giving that our expectations are much lower now, it shouldn't be that bad. We need fresh blood with excitement back in our club. By the way there's reports that Swansea wants Emery...

He should just go to Inter. It might suit him better.

Would like a stab at mad men bielsa. But he might go the same way as Mourinho, crazy fool he is. So I don't know who to get. As I don't think Pep is coming.

Because the club is number one priority. We always want the club to do well no matter who is here. It was not good with Mourinho and thus we are relieved he is gone because it means we can move forward. But we are sad because after the club we appreciate the human being, the work that he did in the past.

I think this is the biggest point that has been learned. In the past no one came close to Mourinho, no matter what they did. But after the second return of Mourinho all that aura has been lost that the club can now move from his shadow. Because his shadow used to hang hard in the club with any manager that came. And now that the shadow is gone, the expectations for future manager would be lower. Which would be good as it will bring less pressure on future coaches. Not sure if that makes sense, but that's what I used to notice from everone when ever we used to get a new manager before. Like "oh he's not good enough or close to what Mourinho could do" and it was like this for every manager. Now it won't be like this as expectations won't be sky rocket high that Mourinho set in his first stint.

I feel the same, no celebration for me. Very relief because we have been drag down the mud. And the thought that we can bounce back (hopefully) makes me happy. I do feel sad he's gone for the past achievement, but the past is the past. We don't live from the past, we need to move on and appoint someone that can take us in the right direction.

Not right for you, but I'm glad he's gone. He has brought the club down, nothing to be excited about that. Now we can bounce back.

Good news. Cannot be a better man to help us pick up. Can't do any worse then the relegation battle we are in right now.

Respect to someone who shows respect.

I'm relieved, this guy is such a toxic man. Has drag the club down to the mud, and all the good work done by the board is gone because of him. Now to pick up again slowly and hopefully next season we can have something to smile about. It's just been a tortured and I'm glad they put him out if his misery.

It was bad at the beginning but it wasn't that bad at the end. In fact if it wasn't for Mourinho coming back most wouldn't have cared if he stayed because there was progress being made. Seriously you ask for us to respect Mourinho but can't show respect to someone who also won us a tittle? Hypocrisy at it's best!
