We count four successive failed managers in 18 months.
Tuchel failed. Despite his earlier successses in early 22-23 season the team was doing very badly so it counts as failure.
Potter failed.
Lampard failed.
Now Pochettino.

After Lampard's admission that most of the Abramovich team not only wanted to leave Chelsea, but wouldn't even put any effort into training, when Abramovich was forced out of Chelsea, I think it was obvious as to why the Tuchel struggled towards the end.  I strongly believe that this season Tuchel would have had us challenging for a top four place.

Can they actually afford to sack him without making our financial position worse? If not...woopsie!! But even if so who would be next? It's not like they're taking over a top side and all is lovely they'd be a lot of work for them to do...

All gone very wrong very quickly! And not just with him..the club itself gone sour it seems

The board don't have to pay Poch off, they could just continue to pay his wages and put him on gardening leave.

Tuchel is struggling in a farmers league at a team that's meant to be a guarantee! And you think he could have these players fighting for top 4? The actual belief that some of you have about a new manager is beyond comical, the players aren't top club players.... They ain't good enough they ain't experienced enough they aren't old enough and 80% of them aren't skilled enough..... No top top manager is going to touch this club, I reckon you could drop 100m on klopps door step and he says, absolutely not. Top managers don't want kids, they want players that can keep them at the top.

Chelsea players too dumb, too sensitive and too young as ‘moral’ ‘noticeably low’ under Pochettino

https://www.football365.com/news/Chelsea-moral-low-pochettino-players-fail-receive-information-accept-criticism

Chelsea players are finding it difficult to ‘receive analytical information’ and to ‘accept critical feedback’ from Mauricio Pochettino as ‘squad moral’ is ‘noticeably low’ at the Cobham training ground.

The Blues conceded four goals for the second game on the bounce on Sunday, losing 4-2 to Wolves on the back of a thumping 4-1 defeat to Liverpool on Wednesday.

It’s led to a significant increase in pressure on Pochettino, and despite reports suggesting the club may not be able to afford to sack him even if they wanted to, the Daily Mail claim plans to review his position at the end of the season ‘could be brought forward if the club’s season continues to deteriorate’.

But the report claims ‘the spotlight is shifting towards those in charge of player recruitment’, namely co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart, along with director of recruitment Joe Shields.

‘There is a feeling behind the scenes that the team lacks leadership and experience’ as a result of a recruitment drive so heavily focused on young players.

The three different recruitment voices has ‘led to difficulties in implementing clear transfer strategy’ and the policy of signing young players ‘has led to complications in the team adapting to different tactics and patterns of play, particularly when they have arrived from teams with defined tactical structures’.

‘Squad moral’ (not morale, apparently) is ‘noticeably low’ at the Cobham training ground with ‘players leaving as soon as they can after training is finished’ and ‘rarely staying behind to complete extra work’.

The report also reveals that the Chelsea players are both too dumb and too thin-skinned:

‘There are also concerns over players’ ability to receive analytical information. Certain players are also said to have shown difficulty in an accepting critical feedback.’

The club bosses have recognised that Pochettino ‘has had little or no influence over the club’s recruitment strategy’, with the number of injuries also offering mitigation for the Chelsea boss.

This all sounds awfully similar to the end of Graham Potter.

put Poch on gardening leave

hire Mircea Lucescu as a caretaker (the legendary Shakhtar Donetsk ex manager)

Lucescu speaks seven languages fluently (English, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, French and Russian, in addition to his native Romanian) and and has won 36 topflight trophies as a manager, including the Europa League and the UEFA Super Cup.

He won a treble with Dynamo Kyiv in 2020/21

Bayern are in good form and 2 points off the top with superior GD , they aren’t struggling and will win the league comfortably
