zolayes 14,489 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I'm considering Paul Clement but I can hear 50% of the posters on here banging the keyboard to a google search ;-) :wank2: Starman60 and 11Drogba 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Fox_ 2,086 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I'm considering itPlease someone talk me out of itHiddink is my first choice despite his fall from grace, he gave me some great times as a Chelsea fan I would take anything over Rodgers, hell i'd take back the FSW before him, i realy really couldn't handle him as our manager.And his almost league winning season was all down to Suarez if you ask me.

Muzchap 8,966 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I'm considering Paul Clement but I can hear 50% of the posters on here banging the keyboard to a google search ;-)I dunno - I always think the lower league guys will struggle with the ego's in the bigger teams. I think that aspect is probably the hardest to learn and was definitely the undoing of AVB everywhere he went It's a tough one... But older managers seem to be able to navigate the players better.

But older managers seem to be able to navigate the players better. he knows Chelsea, he knows the board, he knows the transfer policy, he knows the youth system, he has worked under big names, he has worked with big players and ego's...... perhaps a smidge too early, but he has all the right credentials.Of course its unlikely, but wouldnt it be great to see Chelsea give an up and coming British person a chance?

the wes 7,212 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I laughed so much when I read this initially, but after thinking about it long and hard - he would be OK as an interim.Hazard = Suarez (ish)Willian = Sturridge (ish)JT = Gerrard (ish)He managed to get Loserpool pretty close with a team on paper at least equal or worse than our current squad. At least he tries to play attacking dynamic football. I'm sure he would have also learnt from that mistake against us where he just needed a draw. I dunno though - there must be better options I mean jesus I even praised the FSW during his tenure as he delivered a trophy! I would never have thought that! Somebody could have given me an infinite number of guesses and praising the FSW would have been nowhere on the radar!

But, life is a risk and if he can, he should.Would be great to have an English manager again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino's Skin 972 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Lol Yeah - always middle ground somewhere have a feeling its just you and me on appointing one of the old staff........think a very high percentage want a known name straight in.

Rhino's Skin 972 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Are you guys really considering Rodgers? please no, if we go down that route just appoint JT as manager-player.I do not want to appear or seem to be on the high ground looking down as a regular home/away match going supporter but if Mourinho goes it will take someone extraordinary with immediate impact of getting across to the fans to get the match support on board. If a not so well known coach such as Paul Clement, Steve Holland or those of similar ilk with club connections were to take over.........they would be given a lot more time and be given more patience from the match day crowd than a high profile manager expected to deliver from day 1.If Mourinho goes...I really hope the board take this matter into consideration Muzchap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,100 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I'm still in favour of him taking the team forward for the time being. Result haven't really improved, but performances have. However, if we don't get out of the CL group stages (can't see that happening) or we don't start climbing the table swiftly after the break; he should be replaced by Hiddink until the summer.

Or if it would happen it would be AVB all over again, run of bad results and he's gone as quick as he came.I consider a miracle the fact that Mourinho hasn't been sacked yet, but when/if he's sacked, it's going to be because the board will want immediate results to climb up the table and cut our losses as much as possible, that is much more likely to happen with a well known coach than someone from league 2. (At least from a business point of view, of course a league 2 manager could be very well capable of that feat)Also the moment when/if Mourinho is sacked i believe the board won't take into consideration towards who the fans are going to be more patient, as they would just keep José in the first place.At the end of the day, it would be really nice to have an unknown coach, give him time, and see him build something out of this team, but in the eventuality of a sack that's just won't be an option in that moment, unless it's going to happen in the summer.

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Rumors are that Rodger, RDM and Hiddink are all on our short list to replace Jose until the end of the season. Goodness me if there is any truth in this I don't know what to say, maybe the problem isn't mainly Jose after all but the board as well. If we get rid of Jose a good replacement needs to come in, not 3 managers that have been sacked from their respective jobs barely a few months ago.
