It's not all down to the manager, if watch how lacklustre some of the players are, you'll see they just have little, to no interest. No passion, no grit, it's like they gave up on this season months ago.

The re appointment of Lamps was an absolute joke though. There's still time for Lampard to become a good manager, but he needs to start again in the lower leagues. He could use his experience at Chelsea as a good thing in the long run.

The statisticians have been out in force, and if Tuchel had remained in charge with his points per game average at the beginning of the season, chelsea would have been in the top 4 now

Hardly any Chelsea fans wanted him gone either. Not looked at the stats on it, but without his points, Chelsea would most likely be bottom of the league right now.

If Bohely gets bored with all this losing, accepts his huge losses and tries to sell Chelsea, who's gonna want to buy them? It's becoming a scary reality that this could be the beginning of the end for Chelsea as a PL football club. I fear the absolute collapse of Chelsea football club is imminent.

sacking Tuchel has to come down to one of the most costly decisions ever

Lampard as a manager in the PL with Chelsea - 40 games, 31 losses. Last 20 games - 1W, 2D, 17L

i don't think Poch is the man to fix things, so next season is going to get off to a bad start. I think it's a vanity project for Bohely. He thought he could make a ton of money with little knowledge. They are going to have to dump players, they have 30 in the squad, Man City have 24, but it will be like a fire sale, they will be giving players away to take them off their wage bill

We need a manager the players want to play for, and im not sure who that is?! Poch? Probably not.

I mean, Klopp moans and whines all the time, but look at his passion, look at how his players LOVE playing for him. That's what Chelsea need. Managing Chelsea has aged Lampard by about 50 years. It's sad, but he's an utter embarrassment and not a leader, the players can see that. Poch is quite stone faced, but he is passionate, and he can't be any worse than Lampard (i couldn't be any worse than Lampard tbf). Going backwards in hiring managers has been a huge failure with Lampard, as literally 99.9% of Chelsea fans predicted.

Break the bank for Zidane? But he wont come. If Tuchel fails at Bayen? Apologise and ask back? Who knows. But the whole situation is dire atm.

Tuchel was apparently fired because he objected to Bohely bringing his pals into the dressing room at half time. I don't know how much truth there is in that, but what the actual ****

Wouldn't surprise me. If true, that pretty much sums his ownership so far. I know Tuchel had a rocky relationship with the PSG owners who have been very much hands on in recent years. So yeah, makes sense tbh.

Fcking tragic. I have a very real hatred for Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs. And to a lesser extent, Man Utd (sorry, my first ever game as a young kid was the 94
cup final in which you thrashed us, took me years to get over that one ) but i wouldn't want any of them out of the PL. Loved the bitter rivalries with Liverpool and Spurs over the years. And the somewhat bitter rivalries with Utd and Arsenal.

Of course a lot of people will be gunning for Chelsea to carry on failing - "the team who ruined english football" and all that crap. But in reality, Chelsea's demise would be detrimental to the game over all.

yup always blame the manager when a team is losing

never the players


poor Lamps i'd more love to see him in our eredivisie then, i do think he could still be a decent manager over here, very decent teams with not too high expectations - Go Ahead Eagles (we've had brits coaching them before, Calderwood to name one) or i do believe RKC Waalwijk got a vacancy as well after Oosting signed with Twente for next season, they are also fairly decent surprisingly mid table this season, Sparta Rotterdam is also good team for him, surprisingly sub top level this season 6th where they are usually around 14th, 15th fight for survival

He has to go. Problem is, as a player he was a winner, and world class at that, he can't accept defeat.

Start from scratch or just quit managing. Become a pundit or something.

Wouldn't be surprised with our owners doing that. Easier to lose 20 in a row than compete with the financial muscle of clubs like Villa and Brighton.

Allardyce, who replaced Javi Gracia, said he may look "antiquated" but is the equal of any manager in the league.

"I'm 68 but there's nobody ahead of me in football terms. Not Pep, not Klopp, not [Mikel] Arteta," he said.
