He looks like our best bet tbh but I doubt the owners will go for him over someone like nagelsmann.

How is he looking like our best bet after managing River Plate in Argentina for the last 8 years? Do you even know whether he can speak English?

FirstbornWds:
Zizou is just an above mid coach, irrespective of how much you try to sell him. There's a reason he has virtually refused to coach any other team because he fears being found out or labeled a fraud whose impact can only be felt within the realms of Madrid.

90% of coaching is having power, making players do what you want and Zizou has that.

Just like Ancelotti, they don't look tactically innovative but can make players listen to them

It is no coincidence that Pep chose City where his two best mates are directors in order to keep his power differential to the players. That's why he can walk Cancelo out the door without blinking when Cancelo decide to form stronghead. Once a coach establishes power, everything becomes 10 times easier. Zizou has power from his reputation, his trophies and his demeanour. Chelsea owners are usually the ones that undermine managers. A manager who relies on absolute power won't want to work with Chelsea

FBS:
Thankfully I don't think I ever watched any of his interviews. It was more than enough seeing him clapping on match days. pffffuffff

Man came across as nervous and weak and the players sensed it. It will take a no nonsense manager to manage players sitting on 7 year contract. They can literally go on strike and their pay and future is guaranteed. Maga Boehly strikes again with his contract policy. That's why I want a no nonsense manager next, not a young boy like Nagelsmann that is dragging agemate with some players

lordfalcao:
anything to support lampard mediocrity as a coach.

Even when you swore they will cook once they sign the robust gueye

Gueye stopped them conceding but 0-0, 0-1 and 1-2 results will only get you so much points. They don't have a striker

swiz123:
And what did Everton do to him that he nearly sent them to relegation? Always stanning mediocrity!

Same thing it did to Benitez and Ancelotti

Everton main problem is lack of striker cos if you check this season most of their games are tight games ending in draw or single goal defeats

FBS:
hmmm..I beg to differ. Lampard did OK during the transfer embargo but became arrogant and wasn't just good enough with his cross and nod nonsense.

Any which way, the baton has been passed on. Potter alone reigns supreme in that category now.

AVB and Scolari did not make it past their first season with Chelsea greatest players of all time

Lampard qualified for UCL in first season with academy boys and made FA Cup final

The difference is clear

What messed Lampard up was trying to fit in many expensive players with low talent that unbalanced the team, such as Havertz, Ziyech and Werner. Mostly players the club signed for him that weren't up to par

FBS:
Not the type to be happy when someone gets the sack but man, that was a horrible experience.

Lampard must be relieved now, the title of Chelsea's worst manage in history has just been passed on.

So, who is in-coming?

Lampard was never that. In modern time alone, AVB and Scolari were worse

FBS:
Maybe that was why Boli hired him in the first place. A yes man?

I'm talking about how he deals with the media and the confidence he transmits, not his relationship with Boehly

Pep has always been a yes man to his directors, so has Klopp and Ancelotti, but you don't see them looking nervous, voice shaking in interviews or talking about their mental health challenges like Potter. Players will just see him and say he's a small boy

A001:
Yes, at that time, he already had four European titles, two of which were UCL, and he had won a handful of other local titles as well.

Ancelotti did not coach Azpi in Chelsea

Ancelotti was sacked 2011, Azpi joined 2012

A001:
Where you put the great Ancelotti?

Ancelotti in Azpi era?

popizaino:
Even if they want to tall about his stint at PSG,why his successor not doing any better than him?

Everyone here knows how i love Pep Guardiola and i have watched Mauricio Pochettino giving him what to do think about,defeated Conte,Mourinho,Zidane name them.

Aside the spurs factors and inexperience of some the players that saw him lose to Juventus in the UCL that year,he was on course to go all the way in the UCL again.

Make them talk rubbish about a man who consistently picked up points against us at white hart lane even at our very best and man that has history of coming back from 2goals down.

Poch doing what he did at Spurs under Daniel Levy leadership is looking like magic

Levy that does not even have scouting structure to support you. You have to tell him which players you want and he will spend the whole summer pricing and miss the target.

Well IMO, Poch and Enrique are too independent for our board. Chelsea now have too many cooks (several technical directors) and they will go for a nigga like Nagelsmann who only has experience of working under Technical Directors his whole career

Ballzproblemm:
fraudibeme and his careless takes , pochettino? mtcheww.

What's wrong with Pochettino

Tuchel already told you that managing PSG is not a coaching job but a political diplomat job. No coach can implement their tactical vision with a strolling front 3. I'm not rating anyone based on coaching PSG

Poch did very well in Spurs

Exonerate1:
Marcelo gallardo is currently free, we should be going for him

Only you can recommend someone for Chelsea who has never managed outside Argentina, probably doesn't speak English sef. Gallardo ko, Gallardo ni. Stick to Playstation, this is real life

Amoto94:
Enrique was mediocre in Roma and Spain, MSN and Rakitic gave him the legacy he has been using to deceive people. Nagelsmann did well with Hoffeinham, Leipzig and Bayern he will perform better than Enrique with these crop of players

Both Enrique and Nagelsmann have major question marks

Hoffenheim and Leipzig are clubs with conveyor belts of players going to higher destinations and strong technical directorship. Nagelsmann failed at handling big players in his first big club, Bayern. Players have been fighting him at Bayern since his first month. Come to Chelsea where players are sitting on 7 year fúck-you money contracts and you will see player power in action

Enrique was a scrub in Roma who got lucky with MSN and has done nothing since. He has a strong face that is not welcoming to anyone under his reporting line and a nasty dictatorial attitude. He is like the Spanish Roy Keane in the way he relates to people

Pochettino remains the best of the feasible options

GloriousGbola:
you are not a very nice man . in fact you are a wicked man

Some people just don't have the dog in them. Nigga looked scared of his own shadow.

Potter was a rabbit in headlights. The houseboy left in charge of the shop that will tell you "wait make my oga come back" just to give you price for an item. He lacked testicular fortitude

NinjaXmetahuman:
Finally

I hope the next manager won't be given 10 years contract by Mr maga bohley

lol. You read my mind

Ballzproblemm:
We dey lose dey sign ,funny club

Signings done tire you?

He hung himself and died after killing a loved one

Kenneth following the same playbook.

Okonkwo didn't hang himself for killing Ikemefuna but for killing a Govt official

He hung himself in the bush behind his Obi. This Okonkwo seems to be doing the same

afrodoc2:
Lol. That Okonkwo had Obierika to give him good advice. This Okonkwo is rudderless.

This Okonkwo acting more like Nwoye Okonkwo the efulefu who joined the missionaries

I've never campaigned for anybody, all parties seek my advice - Oyedepo pic.twitter.com/KZLJwboJ4a

Una Don buy market for attaching Oyedepo with that nonsense

But daddy is not denying that the conversation took place, he is instead saying he speaks to every party

He may be confirming the audio by not issuing categorical denial

afrodoc2:
Okonkwo is stupid. He might also be compromised.

I only know of one Okonkwo whose Obi was destroyed and sent on 7 year exile from Umuofia

Bimffo:
But are we going to say about Kenneth Okonkwo's statement this morning?

I strongly felt that audio was a form of propaganda yesterday.

I was waiting for Oyedepo to lay curses on those responsible today.

But this morning, that blunder happened.

Okonkwo may be stüpid or compromised

So your president tinubu was a drug pusher

Let him legalize cocaine and Cannabis nau..

It will create jobs and diversify boys from doing yahoo.. yahoo is currently flooded and saturated..

Boys need to diversify into other illegal stuffs as their president is the commander in chief of drug, fraud and yahoo yahoo

I saw your post on quitting studies at the last minute citing flimsy excuse about cost, when you can obviously afford it.

I hope you go back and complete your studies. 10 years from now, when you want to go legit, you will need it. Take it from me who knows many ex-Yahoo boys in their late 30s and early 40s now doing legitimate careers

A001:
Further research on AI needs to be halted for now to address various concerns of the technology. AI will develop at a fast rate in the next decade, and everyone, especially governments around the world, needs to be prepared.

A001:
Everyone can be fooled by AI. That's one major reason why many people around the world, including Elon Musk, have called for AI research to be halted for now.

I don't see how the space could be regulated efficiently. Laws are too static to keep up with the dynamic nature of such technology. You can't stop progress.

I saw that Elon Musk and Pinterest boss signed petition to halt AI. They just want to halt it so their companies can catch-up before Microsoft and Google take over the market. You can bet they are doing their own AI to catch-up. Musk is particularly pissed that Bill Gates placed $1bln short on Tesla and will do anything to demarket his business moves

Amoto94:
The media team of president-elect are veterans of media warfare dating back to NADECO days they have the experience and means to sustain a prolong propaganda warfare, it is naive of Obidients to think they will win the propaganda war.

Good morning Vietnam

A001:
The audio is fake. It sounds real but there's a particular sound that played throughout the call (starting immediately at the beginning of the audio).

That sound gave it away as fake and synthetic.

Sounds fake to me, although the sentiment expressed is true. Every politician will try to maximise their religious base.

The way the audio went straight to business sounds contrived. Expecting a lot more of this with AI, and knowing Nigeriana who share anything they see on WhatsApp without vetting, our polity will soon be overtaken with fake news, more than it already is.

Pochettino over Nagelsmann anyday BTW

Those clamouring for Nagelsmann never see his suicidal highline and bad relationship with players

FBS:
Stop blaming Kepa for everything.

Potter talking xG is not really xG should tell you the man know no wetin him dey yarn.
And na Kepa you wan blame for that one? This your agenda sef e get as e be.

You can keep putting it off but you know a 6ft 4 keeper with longer arms would have likely saved that, like most long range shots Kepa lets in

User09:
Let me reiterate again for those who like to hear the truth.

None of those stupid pursuit/transfers was entirely driven by Tuchel except maybe Sterling and Auba. You can spin it however you like but the Players bought post Tuchel reinforces my stand. They were all data and boehly driven.

Remember how easy it was for them to sack him despite everyone being shocked at the time cos of all the supposed Tuchel's target that were bought. I'm sure TT is also responsible for all the 7 years signings too. Nigga even said he doesn't need to change the style of play that Lukaku would fit perfectly

We all saw how Lukaku was benched immediately Roman left despite it not being done before.

Even if you say it 1 million times, it doesnt make it true. Same energy should be given to Potter on Mudryk et al afterall he should be the one buying them.

Save that lamba.

It was just Tuchel and Boehly, no DOF and he kept recommending nonsense

He is responsible for every single one of those transfers, even if there may be one or two he didn't initiate, as far as he had veto power against them which he did. And he had no idea of recommending alternatives that could have prevented these expensive disasters, recommendations that would have been actioned like his Kipembe and Auba request were. We know for certain he requested in the media not to sign a new CM/DM and that was actioned to a tee, so he had full power and control

The same mouth he used to veto Ronaldo transfer and ask for Aubameyang is the same mouth he could have used to veto anything you are loosely suggesting he wasn't responsible for

Even the types of signings were driven by him, hence the heavy focus on defenders that started with Kipembe, Ake and Zinchenko and later ended with Koulibaly, Kuku and Fofana. He said no DM or CM was needed and no CM/DM was linked until the last day of the window when they started panicking after Leeds served our midfield breakfast. Make no mistake, Tuchel had responsibility not only over the names, but the types and positions of player we went for

He is even lucky Maga Boehly allowed him to clean up his Lukaku mess from last summer at great expense, only to create another mess in Aubameyang that we all saw coming a mile away. Roman would have made him eat his Lukaku breakfast till he gets Lukaku firing, like he made several managers eat Shevchenko and Torres breakfast for years.

And before you say he is not responsible for Lukaku, which UCL winning manager buys only one player in a while summer, blowing whole budget on Lukaku. Nigga even went out his way to say Lukaku fits his style perfectly and he doesn't need to change style

Most of the players we complain weekly about are Tuchels departing gift

Cukuruku
Koulibaly
Fofana
Aubameyang
Sterling
Lukaku

These are his only signings as Chelsea manager.

Sack very well deserved. He should be hired again just to sack him again for that búllshit. Potter being wãck does not excuse the mess Tuchel landed our playing squad in; and the years of financial undoing needed to correct his expensive mistakes
