The Next Manager?

[ZAPHOD2319 4,799]

There are a lot of journalists using phrases like manager in waiting. If he really is having such an impact on decisions being made by the club, go ahead and close the deal and announce it.

"Chelsea want to make the best choice, and they’re taking their time; nothing is signed or done yet." - Fabrizio talking nonsesne. Chelsea have already made their choice and it's Pochettino. The reason why this is dragging is that they still haven't been able to find an agreement on some clauses, I suppose. Problem is that, if they still won't be able to, a lot of time has been lost. Just like last season, because of the takeover. 

It has to be Poch, otherwise we'll be up for yet another chaotic pre-season and, probably, season.

'Taking their time to make the best choice'

The way this is worded makes it look like we have a thousand other excellent options waiting in line.

Ridiculous statement.

Poch isn't stupid, he will know what a shit show we are and will be dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's to make sure every word in the contract is correct.

Agreed, he's in a position where he knows he's clearly the first choice and where we're in no immediate rush to appoint ourselves, it gives him the opportunity to effectively interview us as well and make sure everything's compatible and any little bits of influence in decisions to try and eek out now before he's signed on.

I don't mind that at all. We ultimately need someone who is going to work with the structure being put in place, but we also need someone with a strong enough personality to come in and stamp their authority and influence on this club.

There are other options available, doesn't have to be Poch.  

I personally can't wait for the club to announce Conte's return!   If we were that desperate to get Lampard back for a farewell tour....then nothing is off limits.

Good. Now let the mass clear out of the players he doesn’t want start the moment the season ends. Be ruthless.

Hasn’t Lautaro been woeful this season? The last thing we need is another bust of a striker. The other 3 would be brilliant signings.

He is having arguably his best.

Already has his career high in total goals produced, and is 2 away from career high in goals scored

plus is leading his team (likely) to the CL Final

already has won the Supercoppa Italiana (back to back now), and is in the final for the Copa Italia, versus Fiorentina

plus won the World Cup (2022) and the  Copa América (2021) and also CONMEBOL–UEFA Cup of Champions: (2022)

plus the Scudetto (Serie A champions) in 2021
