Strike 7,495 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 > Pochettino, Kompany and one highly-rated candidate whose identity Chelsea have managed to keep secret. > Nagelsmann was still being spoken about as a prominent name on a four-man short-list earlier on Friday. Then, later in the day, he was considered to be no longer in the frame. > Nagelsmann met Chelsea officials recently for an initial round of talks held outside England. The sense was that those discussions went well. There were plans for a second meet-up in London though that did not materialise as Nagelsmann decided Chelsea were not right for him. > He ultimately had some doubts about the set-up he would be joining. He made the decision to pull out on Thursday — even if it took 24 hours for that to become public knowledge. > Chelsea sources dispute this and say Nagelsmann was not favorite. They decided he was not quite the right fit — a conclusion they reached unanimously. > Pochettino impressed in talks and has mentioned a few of the players from the current squad that he would like to be part of his plans next season if he is granted the chance to take over. > Kompany appreciated for his leadership skills, third candidate is reputed for his tactics in a lesser league, is least likely candidate. > Luis Enrique talks were positive but club had concerns he's not managed in the league or at club-level for a while.

Imagine buying shit loads of young players, then to potentially appoint a manager that's has excelled with young players!!!!!!

Poch was at spurs between 2014 and 2019 - His targets during those years weren't to win titles. I'll reiterate that any appointment will be asked to win titles within 16–24 months, which is something I can't see Poch being able to deliver. Yet he came just as close as us apart from the 1 season we did won the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,098 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I hope we appoint someone very soon, but am glad the club have taken their time and not just panic appointing someone like Potter again. Do think they should appoint someone soon tho so at v minimum they can be watching all games in person and observing some training sessions. We need their help for the clear out. mkh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdlk 286 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I am curious who decides about coaches?? Todd? who doesnt know anything about football? Or someone else..

ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Have to say I am not a massive fan of potch. Never have been. But I listened to a fella a while ago talk about why he could be good for us and its swayed me a bit. His development of younger players whilst at Spurs, he got a habitual team of losers within touching distance of a league and champions league which no one has even come close to with that load of bottlers. He also had them playing good football for the most plus he's actually managed in the prem AND he even made dele and Danny rose look like decent players....I mean fucking hell!!! I'll temper expectations if he comes but I'm no longer completely against it. That being said my expectations are at a 30 odd year low Fernando, Fulham Broadway and Blue Armour 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gundalf 806 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Seems like both Chelsea and Nagelsmann went on a date and decided its not right for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
