Only the pressure to coach big teams is enough to see that Ikenna is most likely to choke in 3 months.

Primary 5 ko, Primary 4 ni.

Alonso exceeded all expectations. If he had finished 4th without any trophy, his board wouldn't chop his head off.

Potter was wonderful till he came to the bridge.

He should go and take small heat from Brighton fess.

WhoDeyHause:

The thing dey muse me.
If that same Alonso was in Bayern Munich and finished 2nd not even 4th with no trophy you'll see the pressure he'll be under. Bayern has already appointed kompany right? We'll see how it goes if he doesn't perform to the club's expectations especially in bundesliga next season.

BlueRayDick:


That is not the difference between them. Arteta simply won a trophy in his first year as a coach and that bought him time. If he had not won a cup , he would've been sacked like Lampard too.

Arsenal sacked Emery after 18 months at Arsenal. Guess what? Lampard was also sacked after 18 months at Chelsea obviously for the same reason Arsenal sacked Emery.

BlueAngel444:
first off, you're stubbornly refusing and change the ideology i shared with you. I said the child passed the 4th year, then you change it that he will fail if he doesn't know anything about it.

First off, do you think those of us who get As don't read, do you think he will take a grade higher exam without actually reading and preparing for it, even without been taught. Common, don't play dumb

Your very statement it's not time for him to step up is why I gave you that analogy. You can either believe in the kid or you don't. And just like you don't you won't try because you don't even want to believe they can do it.


Amorim that's my first choice may come here to Chelsea and fail, it won't be the first time a top manager fails at another club and league. If McKenna fails, there is Amorim who doesn't seem willing to leave sporting CP yet, maybe because of UCL football, who knows.


No matter what Xabi has made a name for himself and his next club may be Madrid. I can remember when Madrid hired Zidane it was crazy but it worked out very. 3UCLs back to back. You never know what could happen with McKenna

kingBolton:

The difference between Arteta and Lampard then was the luxury of time Arteta was afforded. Lampard finished top 4 and was sacked in the second season, Arteta finished outside the top 4 for three seasons in a row and still had a job.

The only reason you are debating who was rated better now is because of what Arteta has done in the last two seasons, as far as I can remember, it was mostly ole and lampard debate , Arteta was barely in the conversation then as far as the 2019/2020 season is concerned. You can go back and check both united Chelsea and Arsenal threads conversation of that season.

Vischy:


Flick will be Barcelona manager, would you bet they will win la Liga against current real Madrid next season?

Remember Xavi won it in first season....

Vischy:


I told him already time was the essential factor.

Imagine arteta finishing 8th twice at Chelsea? Impossible he is SACKED.

BlueAngel444:
is it pressure that made Poch struggle at PSG?

Is it pressure that made Chelsea sack Mourinho, Conte, Tuchel.

If a manager is winning where is the pressure. You think managers at Everton don't feel pressure not to relegate.

Are you assuming that managing Ipswich town was easy and no pressure. Maybe it was and it seems so because he was winning. But a successful man or one who wants to make a great career is always under pressure to do the best.

You guys talk about pressure like it's a bad thing, abi is it only me that faces my small pressure and value it.

It's only those with a small mind that run from big challenges. Imagine giving me an offer to manage hundreds of millions. Men if I was waking 5am before, I will wake 3am, to enjoy my new role. Pressure ko, pressure ni, except he is a loser that can't handle it. And from those who have watched and been with him, he is not.

Mourinho picked this guy to be his second. You know Mourinho the young man who walks into EPL and calls himself the special one.

kingBolton:

Kompany is most likely a place holder till klopp is done with his sabbatical next year.

WhoDeyHause:

Xavi also took that Barcelona team to the Europa league that season and also lost in the playoffs of the round of 16 after barka spent over 200m for him on transfers don't forget that. Laligo is mostly a two horse league so I might bet on it [b]if they can also spend the same way they spent on xavi that season[b].

WhoDeyHause:

If I'm using your analogy McKenna doesn't have any experience of managing the biggest league in any country whatsoever except in the lower leagues and would likely take longer time to adapt than those with prior experience in it.
We were jubilating when we signed potter who was one of the best young coaches in our league? How did it go was he given more time like arteta and co after the job swallowed him?
The championship is a different ball game entirely to the epl. Can you tell me any coach plucked from the championship to a top club that you know was a success in recent memory? Championship that anybody can beat anybody.

izzou:


Was Potter a loser when you gave him the job?

You crucify Poch for not carrying the Ligue with PSG, and that proves my point...A Bigger expectation.

If the same Poch coached Lille and came second, we will all clap for him and say he did try.

When these newbies messes the team up and dump us at 15th, at Week 10, that's when we will start looking for a reasonable replacement.

We know Ikenga is a winner. He should go to Brighton and keep winning there.

Vischy:


Can you name one experience coach available for Chelsea?

Idk, but this ikenna guy dey give me AVB vibes

BlueAngel444:
is it EPL that isn't where anybody can beat anybody?

You said I should give you example, Pep from Barcelona B, to Barcelona A. Zidane from real Madrid B to realise Madrid A.

You are talking like McKenna wasn't in united coaching staff for 5years before going to Ipswich.

But then again you guys comparing Potter to him is weird because Porter never had instant success with Brighton nor any of his former teams. So the both comparison no follow.

kingBolton:

Arteta is better than lampard but as far as the 2019/2020 season is concerned, lampard was rated highly, especially how he handled the squad and was able to get a top 4 despite the transfer ban.

It is understandable for people to disagree now with how far Arteta has brought Arsenal now tho.

Ibime:
Lampard only has himself to blame today.

Every decision was wrong from the formation to the Christensen sub

Taguchi:
Liverpool : epl trophy

Arsenal : FA trophy

Man city : efl trophy

Chelsea : net spend trophy

WhoDeyHause:
Our own Maresca won the championship but McKenna coming second that he almost bottled is a huge success over potter who was one of the most highly rated young coaches in EPL as at 2022? Na wa o.

Ahh you're confused, between Leicester and Ipswich who almost bottled championship?🤷

WhoDeyHause:

Which prejudice? Was Maresca not with us last year before moving to leceister? Same way i don't want Ikenna at the club is the same way I won't want Maresca too.


Boss I followed the championship too at a point ipswish also topped that table before gaining some inconsistent results and almost losing their epl spot to Leeds before they also messed up.
