Welcome Mauricio Pochettino

Closed leagues with players that can be traded without their consent is an impossible comparison to world club football. Too many variables that are completely different.

That's the part I'm most curious about: how the long contracts will pan out in the world of football.

I think it is just a financial accounting measure. We could never force all these kids to stay past them wanting to be here. The real risk is moving on a dud.

The Bayern manager search is making it clear there aren't many options to replace Poch

Yet all over social media this is what we are hearing. People want him gone

Poch said he wanted more say in transfers. In the next press conference after that statement he said this wasn’t his team, it is Chelsea’s team. He was really over playing his hand. Egbhali was as not really convinced that Poch would be the long term coach at Chelsea and evidently all this thin skin behavior from Poch about rumors in the press has not set well with both Egbhali and Feliciano, both cofounders of Clearlake. 
 

All this is of course through the English press.

Young manager sounds like McKenna. God help us if we sack Poch…

We’ve now seen numerous BIG players in our team back Poch. And not only saying the cliché “yeah, he’s good” stuff but we’ve seen top players like Enzo, Palmer etc saying he has been great and that they really fought for him in this run in.

Can't see this ending well.. I've had my doubts and moments where think hmmm what is he doing where are we going. But then other glimpses of something postive. You know if we sack him..hire another it won't last and will keep doing this round and round. May not be long term but feel deserves another season. No one can build anything if not given a chance!

If it's between Poch and McKenna I'd rather stick with Poch as well. Sick of these English managers.

Surely as manager he should be...as should any manager.

[NikkiCFC 7,953]

McKenna wtf. That is like taking Jokanovic 5, 6 years ago.

Would be the most backwards decision from Clownlake yet, if they did go down this route.

Hoping this is just a rumor.

Unless there is a surefire better option than Poch out there, they should just continue with what we have.
