Sack Race 20/21

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Stockport sacking Gannon doesn't seem to make any sense

They're 4th in the League and reached the 3rd Round of the FA Cup this season

Who on Earth have they got lined up for the job instead?

That's the one thing I thought would go well for them with Lampard. I thought he was such a club legend there was no way Roman would sack him for being, what, 8th? in a league so crazy 4 wins probably puts you top 2.

Don't like it but at least they didn't improve the manager overall, seriously don't rate Tuchel.

Chelsea being 8th is an absolute disaster let’s be honest.

With Abramovich, I don't think there's anyone who would be saved because of their club status although he probably did receive more time due to his stature.

It's rinse and repeat with short-term success his only desire - fickleness to the nth degree.

 

[PITA]

If he gets a front four of Havertz Pulisic Ziyech Werner firing, has Kante sweeping up behind him and keeps a solid defence then there’s no reason they won’t do well.

You don’t say!

I think this could massively blow up in Chelsea’s face, by and large Tuchel did not do a particularly stellar job at PSG and has got a reputation for butting heads with club’s owners and hierarchies in the past which is something Abramovich hates

 

[Efcjake]

Why sack him after a win though?

What has beating Luton done to get him sacked?

Absolutely right. They've got the talent to compete for the title.

I have no idea why people continue to rate Tuchel.

Poor decision for me that. Given him one proper summer and just because they’re not absolutely flying he’s been sacked.

 

[verreauxi]

Tuchel is a step backward, but that's fine with me.

He was always filling a gap whilst they had a transfer ban, it suited both parties. The Roman fella probably couldn’t wait for someone like Tuchel to come available. The writing was on the wall from day 1 imo unless they were top and flying this was always happening

Nothing, probably.

The board will have met and discussions would have took place with the owner and most likely with Tuchel's representatives if the interest in him is true.

Lampard's days were probably numbered last week and it's took this long to actually meet, mark out the formalities and then send him packing.

A loss over the weekend, while knocking them out of the cup, would have probably just made the sacking more viable to fans, but I doubt Roman cares.

 

[Efcjake]

Tuchel is Sarri all over again. Weird formations all over the shop.

They should have stuck with Frank.

From Lampard? No he isn’t.

Probably been talking to Tuchel since his departure from PSG and everything has been agreed in the last day or two
