The Chelsea Thread

[Rita_Poon]

Rosenior was always on a hiding to nothing with Chelsea, feel sorry for him but hopefully the payout helps him take some time out and he lands back on his feet

lampard in 12v months, classic redemption stoiry.,..

Maybe it’s both? Just a thought.

Actually feel a bit sly on Rosenior, he was doing a fine job at Strasbourg then gets forced into the Chelsea job that he clearly wasn’t ready for. I get that he’ll have got a handsome pay rise but now his reputation’s in tatters all because of BlueCo’s model.

I mean he wasn’t forced. He could have said no.

 

[Nymzee]

Getting massively outran every single game but says this? That’s worrying.

 

[LinekersLegs]

Could he really? If BlueCo didn’t own Strasbourg, sure.

But they do and if he’d turned the Chelsea job down they could well have sacked him anyway for “lack of ambition”, “not committing to vision of the ownership” or just out of pique.

At least this way he got a chance at trying to see if he could do the role, will have gained some valuable (if painful) experience and presumably will get a good payout.

Can't wait to hear Rosenior's latest pearls of wisdom when he gets sacked.

Follow spurs down next season super six eh

Do you think? I feel like with multi club groups players/managers are very much just pieces to be moved around. He’d not have been forced but would’ve felt very pressured to take the job I imagine.

A layman’s maths averages 7.2km across the ten outfield positions, so each position ran 8m less per minute* compared to Brighton.

That tells me they aren’t pressing, commuting to close down or moving into space as much as their opponent.

*not factoring in extra time.

Hope he can regroup and rebuild his career after this.

I mean maybe but feel like you’re opening yourself up to some sort of unlawful dismissal there. He maybe could have said “not yet”. Either way, he definitely thinks he can do the job and he definitely can’t.

That squad really are throwing Rosenior under the bus hard aren't they!
