Maybe Boehly wants Chelsea to have quick success like when Tuchel was Chelsea's head coach at that time with Chelsea sacking Lampard. Because after all, Tuchel really managed to achieve rapid success at that time by winning the Champions League trophy in the 2020/2021 season. Amazingly, at that moment Chelsea managed to beat Real Madrid in the semifinals and then Chelsea beat Manchester City in the final match. Obviously, it was a huge achievement for Tuchel at that time, because Real Madrid and Manchester City were the favorites to get the trophy.

But strangely, after this great achievement, Tuchel seemed to have lost his magic in making the team perform well, so that up to now Tuchel has still not succeeded in getting the team he coached to win a trophy. But about Chelsea continuing to change their coaches, I think they probably want quick success like that. But unfortunately, short success like that is very difficult to repeat because it also probably requires a high level of luck too.

The way Chelsea wants to restore team performance is not going to work for them, because it will be hard and challenging for a manager to restore a team that has been performing poorly for some seasons to get back in just one season and probably get a trophy, because that is what Chelsea management is looking for right now. They change managers.

Every season, and that is why they are performing, they always go back to poor performance anytime the season starts. Instead, they should have one manager for at least 3 or 4 seasons to see if he can deliver a good result, but Chelsea failed to do that. I believe there is no coach who will do that in just one season; rather, giving a coach enough time to see what he can bring to the table is the best thing.

I also agree with you. If Chelsea want to improve too quickly, it will never happen. Because the whole situation of Chelsea is very unstable. This team needs to be stabilized. Players need to be confident. The understanding between the players should be improved. And lastly a stable match strategy must be developed. And if all these can be done, Chelsea's performance will return to this consistency. And it can't be done quickly by any coach. So Chelsea management should definitely give a coach 2 seasons in charge and let the coach work independently. If not, I don't think Chelsea's situation will change.

I am not sure that Chelsea is really aiming for the trophy. Of course all these top teams don't start a season to be left behind with empty hands at the end. But the title is unrealistic and should definitely be announced as the official priority for Chelsea. I think they should try to restore their competitiveness over a longer period of time and not just for two or three games in a row at maximum. They need to win these games against the top teams and show much more dominance against teams that have like 1/5th the budget of what Chelsea has.

I don't know why Chelsea management sacked coach Pochettino. We have seen a series of good performances from Chelsea in the last matches of the season. And from this it can be assumed that coach Pochettino was able to stabilize this team. Pochettino was then sacked by the Chelsea management.

However, Chelsea management has appointed a new coach. And spending a lot of money to strengthen their squad. But I would say the Chelsea management should give the coach enough time and opportunities. The Chelsea management is living in a fool's paradise if they expect good performances from Chelsea so quickly. The situation of the Chelsea team is very shaky. This group definitely needs time to improve.

I don't see any significant developments happening in the case and after all this time Manchester City seem to feel that they have never done anything wrong with every accusation that is accused against them, if we look urge from at the many other clubs in the English league for the FA to immediately deal with the case, it does not make the FA have to move quickly like they did with Everton and Nottingham Forest last season, to be honest, I think the case involving Manchester City seems to have been deliberately left without further investigation from the FA even though they realized that the case existed, previously Manchester City had had several cases related to financial violations but at that time they actually appealed and made UEFA have to close the case immediately.

The financial strength possessed by Manchester City is clearly one of the strengths that makes Manchester City not only able to build a great squad, but their financial strength seems to be a shield that protects them from every lawsuit and is also often a weapon to get free from punishment for financial violations so far , so I think we can't expect that Manchester City will be punished after 115 violations they committed if indeed the authorities The Premier League is still not clean of corruption as once said by boxing legend Tony Bellew who is an Everton fan, I think the case involving Manchester City at the moment  will continue to drag on and will slowly disappear without further action from the FA. 

You and I know that Chelsea is not a club that's patient with their managers. To be honest I thought that brutality ended with Abrahimovic era, but it appears that's not the case. Judging by how they have been firing managers since the new owners took over. Every coach who is going to Chelsea already understand this fact and they know that they have to buckle up. Even if the results are not that very satisfactory at least they should make the europa league spot. But a situation whereby at the end of the season they don't achieve that the manager risks sacking. But if the fact is to be followed, one season is not enough for a coach to transform the fortune of the club, given the fact that they are still rebuilding the squad to be competitive at all front. But I have this great feeling that Enzo Maresca will do better than Porchettino at Chelsea.

I read an article that said that depriving Manchester City of all their championship titles during 2009 - 2018 was a very, very bad possibility and some people even commented that it seemed to be exaggerated. City will face 115 charges related to FFP and in other news it is reported that City's harshest punishment is a 30 point deduction and expulsion from the Premier League. If City are relegated I don't think it will take long for them to return to the EPL. But there will be a possibility that most of the players and even Pep Guardiola will choose to leave the team.

Agreed, Palmer isn't a striker. But he really performed like a striker last season.    However of course Chelsea wouldn't rely on him to score this many goals every season. It is difficult for a midfielder to maintain such performance.

This is where Chelsea would make use of a real striker who they can benefit from significantly. They are making their investments into midfielders recently but they had better focus on the attacking area as well. Marc Guiu is a new arrival who is a 18-year-old striker. Chelsea is full of young centre-forwards like this. But I think they should actually have a star scorer there to increase the productivity more.

Jackson is still not good enough. I don't think he should be their main striker because of that. 

This is another topic what I'm curious about. If we consider like the case is over and all those titles are taken back from Manchester City in the Premier League. Then what happens? 

I mean will those years be left as blank or will there be a thing like the teams right behind them are called as new champions of those years? I guess the first one would happen because I haven't seen any example of the latter. 

It can really be like the end of an era in England, at least for a while if Manchester City reignite it by climbing back to the Premier League. Anyway we will see about that as we don't even have the result in our hands.

It's good to find someone who thinks the same as me on this topic. Yeah, why would the chairman like to part ways with Pochettino? Only after one season and despite the big improvement in results on final weeks of the season too.  

I think this was a bad action and hopefully they won't regret it. Because one should never be this hasty with a coach. If there's improvement then you should definitely give it a 2nd chance. Klopp revived Liverpool in 3-4 years as a reminder.

I guess now Slot can think that with the team that he doesn't need any changes or a new player, it's that it's difficult because finding a team where most of them are very good, it's hard to make changes, because first you have to work with what you have, and the current players are very good and that's what should be considered, I don't know where Liverpool's weaknesses could be, their attack is good, so they don't need a striker, their midfield and defense too, I think that after playing some friendly matches the coach has to realize what the vulnerabilities are.

We do not hear about the transfer that is happening to Liverpool at the moment even though they are linked with many players, at this time maybe Liverpool is still trying to monitor the players they will recruit and in order to be able to compete in the English League championship next season, Liverpool of course It will not be careless in buying players, Liverpool's movement in the transfer market is indeed not very highlighted by the media but I think they currently definitely have several names that they will recruit, Arne Slot seems to be very selective in choosing players to recruit to really suit the needs of their team next season, there is still a lot of time left in the transfer market allows for Arne Slot to be able to monitor more good and talented players which will indeed be in accordance with his game scheme next season.

I was one of those that openly criticised Pochettino because I felt he wasn't doing a great job. His team should have been playing better than they were playing. Even when they did well in some games, they were inconsistent most times. Firing Pochettino was not such a bad decision. He might have built a good team with time, but I doubt he'll be able to win the league.
The decision Chelsea made in hiring their next manager is something that only time will tell, but I don't think he's good enough to give them the result that they desire. Enzo Maresca seems like a good coach, but I doubt he's going to be a coach to start delivering results immediately and if he's not going to deliver immediately, there was no point in firing Pochettino that was already getting rhythm with his team.
 

I agree with you that Chelsea management should not rush. Because Chelsea's situation was very unstable. So Chelsea's performance at the start of the season was very erratic. And that's normal. A team has to stabilize gradually. It's not possible too fast. Although Chelsea's performances were erratic at the start of the previous season, Pochettino was able to gradually stabilize the team. And he could have made the team even stronger this season if he got enough benefits this season.

However, the Chelsea management should not be expecting too much from the new coach this season. Adequate time and opportunities must be given to the new coach. If not, it is not possible to bring the continuity of this team's performance.
