Marco Silva is a great coach but I’m skeptical that he’d be a good fit at this moment

He will NEVER be the required level to manage Chelsea. What are we doing here ? Have we really allowed our mentality to drop to even considering this guy?

Did I say I wanted him? lol

I’m just saying he’s a very good coach. He maximizes what he can get at a small club with super limited resources. 

Of the names we’ve heard linked thus far I think I’d put Xabi Alonso at the top of the pile followed by Iraola.

I’m straight up ignoring that name lol. 
 

If we are truly considering Marco Silva.. there are no words left to describe this nightmare. 
 

I like Alonso but too many last minute wins in that Bundesliga run for me to feel super safe in his management style. Then he flopped hard at Madrid. 
 

none of the names are wowing me at all.

None of the names are wowing me either. As for Alonso failing at Madrid, wasn’t that more due to him clashing with the likes of Vini for being a spoiled brat than about anything tactical? I don’t even remember. 

Our problem is that due to how awfully we’ve been run I don’t think there’s any possible “wow” appointment out there. Or even one that may not blow us away but who we could at least say “even though I’m not excited I’m 100% confident he’ll make us a serious team.”

All we’re really left with is gambles on overachieving small club managers of which multiple have already failed under this ownership.

What's the manager that would be a wow signing? Enrique is at PSG till 2027 and might extend. Emery is tied down at Villa. Kompany will not leave Bayern. Can't see a lot of managers who are doing a good job at their current clubs looking to move. Doesn't seem feasible for us to wait for a World Cup bound coach to finish his international assignment either.

Yeah, there isn’t one. Some people might have said Alonso would’ve been had he jumped straight from Leverkusen to here. But the Madrid spell may have knocked him down a peg.

Although, the mention of his name seems to have loads of our fans badly wanting him on social media. That may be more down to the quality of the other names, though.
