Well we will only know by who we appoint in the summer since no doubt hiddink is coming in as a term management.

Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs in the world and is one point above the relegation places in the Premier League; that is not good enough. - Emanolo Say what you want about the guy but that was the brutal truth!

Playing for Jose Mourinho 'very exhausting,' says Demba Ba http://espnfc.com/chelsea/story/2761206/playing-for-jose-mourinho-very-exhausting-demba-ba

Not similar but he came from that school. I guess I meant it wrong. I meant it more like avb. He was with the man and learned a lot from him.

Pochetino is of the Bielsa school. Him and pep are. This is why I wanted to have someone like Bielsa to prepare the grounds for someone else to take over. But Bielsa is like Mourinho, too crazy personality and these are not good for long term. Prefare someone like Pochetino, so that's a good shout out for someone like him. The only problem would be his experience in Europe but who cares about that just as long as we can get back on track.

Well the match day goers will be mad, sad etc etc the first few weeks, but this will also pass. I think we was doing good in the past before Mourinho came, but the shadow of his former self was too tempting. Now after this season that is gone, it will be a relief for future staff as they no longer have such a big shadow hanging on them. The same thing is happening at United. No manager will be good enough for them because of the standard SAF left. This is why I really believe this a reset button for us to move forward and find our own identity. Free from the shadow of Mourinho.

Yeah but it will only last for the first few weeks. No one will care if we are doing good come March and have a positive outlook for next season.

We was doing good before he came. And we can do good after he's gone.

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.
