Bet you he still turned up at the training ground in his full kit though

 

[Alan Whittle]

Any Manager going there would basically have to have about a 70% clear out of players, they are a team of rats

This x 1000. From John Terry through to today. Snideing out anyone they don't like.
Probably seen reading a broadsheet newspaper or a novel and JT convinced everyone that he must be gay or a communist.

I wish you'd stop going on about his flipping win record, he's been managing teams who have never had a good win record. If you put him in charge of Man City I think you'd find he'd have better win record. Moyes, who you love, went to the biggest club in England who'd just won the league and had a crap win record there, that's a more telling stat than Iraola's record at lower half clubs.

….ah, but those are the stats.

I actually like Iraola but I do think he’s a huge risk, I’d like to see him succeed in his next job and then we’ll know if stats lie Surprised Glasner is rarely mentioned.

I don’t ’love Moyes’, I do think he’s doing exactly what he was brought in to do and maybe a bit more. There’ll be a time he moves on but it won’t be anytime soon.

Not a great day for "young", British, or black managers. Not a bad little pay off for Liam, mind.

Chelsea are looking as banter as they were in their Ken Bates days...

His win record is the best Bournemouth have had at 36%.

Does he get paid out the remainder of his contract?! If so, it must be bombs…
Not a bad slice of pocket change for 106 days of work.

…..I saw somebody post the monies they’ve spent in recent times and it’s not to be sniffed at. They lost some big bucks players in the summer, he did get that team to 9th in the table.

I do think his next job will tell us more but I also think Glasner is a better fit for Chelsea.

 

[MisterJ]

I just don't get how this works for the club.

There's no continuity for the partying side and it must be terrible for the balance sheet

I’ve seen Sky claims that there was a break clause in the contract but no details, guess we’ll find out by later reporting, possibly by someone’s barber!

Edit or TalkSport who are possibly less reliable than the barber

Who thinks they might go for Fat Frank now, considering how successful he’s been at Coventry this season?

There’s no way. They’ll go for a big name, offer him a 6 year deal, and sack him after 6 months because the children they sign this summer against the managers better judgement aren’t ready to push for the title.

 

[marnie]

He was Rooneys assistant at Derby FFS. He was so out of his depth.

 

[LinekersLegs]

He’s not wrong is he

Made up we didn’t sign him

Apparently Drogba just used longer words to come to the same conclusion

I thought you taught Science?

Eh? I did. Thats what my teaching was all about .... science it baby!

 

[daza_1973]

Joke of club - arrogant clueless owner.
Fingers crossed we finish above them

I'm skeptical over how legit things like this are. Quotes from players posted on random accounts.
