I really think we do need a change but its tough for selections. I would take Allegri in a heartbeat. As I would have before when Sarri left.

Tuchel not bad option but has baggage and is more than likely to continue the trend of his career of few years all good, big falling out then change teams. He has done it at Mainz, Dortmund and now PSG.

Sarri back 😂?

We would see a lot of through balls to Pulisic and Werner.

If the club move on from Lampard then what is the realistic choice?

I hate the idea of an interim manager again. This isn't the same group of players and personalities we have a few years back who seemed capable of almost managing themselves in times of turmoil. We have a young team who need to be moulded and developed and I find it counter productive bringing in a coach to work with them for half a season before someone else comes in. 

And in the past our success with interim managers has usually involved coaches coming in and making us harder to beat than getting us playing better football. 

So if we make a play now I guess the two on the market that appear most attractive are Allegri and Tuchel. I'm honestly not sure about Allegri. The commitment we've made since bringing in Sarri is to look at playing a more attack minded way and the players we've brought since then tell as much. I don't think we've got the squad anymore to go back to a more pragmatic approach.

Tuchel seems combustible to me, and we're the last club you'll get anywhere with by arguing with the board. However there is a portfolio of good football there (particularly at Mainz and Dortmund, not as impressed at his PSG tenure).

Ironically looking back in hindsight there has to be wonderment over what might have happened if Sarri continued. I know Hazard was leaving but the Europa League final was probably the best example of his football. His position was made untenable by the fan backlash during the season but if we're going to develop a progressive style it isn't going to happen overnight and there is going to have to be some patience somewhere from fans and board alike (both of which over time have proven to be amongst the most impatient in world football).

As a side note too, does anyone know what the situation is regarding potentially bringing in a foreign manager post Brexit?

I have a hunch that the board will consider Terry.

Luis Enrique would be horrible.

Hope for Hassenhüttl

Why you don't like him? He won treble and unlike Pep did not need refs help.

But yeah, German coach for the first time would be nice.

I used to watch Barcelona a lot and when you have prime Messi, Neymar, Iniesta, Rakitic and Suarez, I don't think you need to coach that much to be honest. Also, Mascherano was still in his prime and Iniesta had his last WC year. I also don't rate Zidane.

Hassenhüttl has PL experience and is a decent coach. Tuchel is a huge risk for many reasons. Poch would have been my first choice, but he is gone

I think Allegri would be great for Havertz. He plays with AM often. Also Dybala is kind of SS like Werner and he had his by far best season with Allegri. So German boys would love him. We still need better midfielders tho, no matter who manager is.

I really want to see Tuchel here. He is good at developing youth and he is a lot more progressive than Allegri which can suit our group of players better.
