The premier league matches this weekend have already been postponed as a sign of mourning the death of the queen of England, Queen Elizabeth II. The decision to postpone the events was passed by the English government in a 12 day mourning week. I can't believe there won't be league games this weekend, this will be a boring weekend for me, I can feel it already.

It looks like Graham potter will be the next target of sacking by Chelsea, if Graham potter can't quickly give a good performance for Chelsea then Graham potter must be prepared to be the victim of sudden dismissal. Because Chelsea basically don't want their team to keep losing and Chelsea can't appreciate a coach who has done a good job for the team so yeah, I'm not sure Graham potter will stay until his contract expires. Because from the information I got, Graham Potter has a 2-3 year contract, I believe that if Graham Potter still doesn't produce good results during that period, he will be fired. Get ready! Tongue
Even funny, I never even saw this coach. His achievements are also not many. The history of coaching is also quite minimal champion. Even for europe he doesn't seem to have enough experience. I thought Chelsea would buy Pochetino or Zidane for the next coach, but I was wrong. Hopefully this is not Chelsea's step back. This is because they buy coaches with minimal experience. This made everyone feel strange and doubtful.
Dude managed about 400+ games total which over half of them were on Ostersund but still it was managing and I believe that should be counting for something, then swansea and lately Brighton which is more than enough, hell they beat United to be fair, that should be something.

However, what Chelsea was looking for was an interim coach, just like how United got that guy last year after firing Ole, they were going to go with Erik, but they wanted someone in the middle, this is that guy and yes we are just in September right now but all good managers are taken, so by this summer I am %100 sure they will get someone better and it will look better too. They couldn't do proper transfers neither.

It's a pity that all matches have been canceled all weekend. Just don't really understand why. Everyone wants to pay their respects to the late Queen, that's fine too, but why should you delete all matches? There are also other ways to show your respect at football matches, for example by having 1 minute of silence at the start of the match. There's more to that than shutting everything down. the EPL already has a very busy and tight schedule, which is now only going to become a bigger problem.

Probably because Chelsea had secured the deal with Potter to be the next manager. If only there wasnt anyone available and better than Tuchel then I doubt that he will be sacked. They probably think that Potter had the potential and he accepted the offer so yeah they sack him right on the spot after losing the game but its just brutal at some point
The appointment of Graham Potter as Chelsea new coach is none other than because he is considered capable of changing the position of players and being able to adjust the tactics he plays. apart from that we can see he is able to lead Brighton to perform better at the start of this season. No wonder the chelsea boss directly interacted with Potter in submitting an offer as the new coach of chelsea and he accepted without any pressure. I read in some news that was published in a number of media Tuchel dismissal because there was disharmony between Boehly and Tuchel so that it could have an impact on the dismissal decision.

I think this was a huge shock. Tuchel did a huge job in Chelsea and won some really imortant trophies. There was a crises with the owner and everything and now they sack him. I think it is really unfair if you start one season badly that you get fired

Tuchel is not a bad coach. He is a very experienced coach. But he is not able to stabilize the Chelsea team now. Chelsea's squad is not weak. However, they managed to win only 3 matches between matches. If Tuchel can strengthen Chelsea's defense then I think Chelsea's performance will stabilize. Chesley's defense has been poor this season. Chelsea management should give Tuchel some more time. He might be able to stabilize the team.

The news of Thomas Tuchel's dismissal after a short term with the club was a shock to me. Tuchel has done very well with the club, we don't see many managers winning five trophies in two seasons these days, I think he deserves a little more time to get the club to top form but he was dismissed so quickly. Todd Boehly decision doesn't sit well with me.

I think this was a huge shock. Tuchel did a huge job in Chelsea and won some really imortant trophies. There was a crises with the owner and everything and now they sack him. I think it is really unfair if you start one season badly that you get fired

With the various achievements obtained, I hope Thomas Tuchel will still be in the EPL even though he is not with Chelsea. This is one of the hot news in the EPL this week because some parties, including supporters, consider the sacking of Thomas Tuchel not through enough convincing considerations. This action also seems to be done unilaterally without giving Tuchel a chance
It took a long time to find a replacement for Thomas Tuchel who had the same qualities and experience.

Whilst i believe Liverpool will come good in the Premier League, the thing is that, i hope by the time they start playing good it wouldn't be too late,
I'm sure Liverpool can do it, but it takes effort and hard work to keep the players at their best. The problem is in the depth of the squad this season, they don't have good substitutes when their first team struggles to find a way to win.

Well right now depth is the problem for them but I don't think it is affecting them that much. If we talk about their defence line, its all their main man and still they are struggling. In fact, Liverpool have conceded first in 6 games out 8 matches which goes to show how much poor they are performing in defence line. To win a match it is important to hold the opponents also which Liverpool are failing to do so.

The change of manager at the beginning of the season may have an adverse effect on Chelsea's performance this season. Chelsea have some internal problems and its obviously visible now in the team's performances from game to game, the dismissal of the previous coach Thomas Tuchel is also as a result of this problems. I hope Todd Boehly understands getting a  new manager will not bring immediate solutions to the problems and improve the team's performance immediately.
Chelsea problem is Majorly cause by the change of boards and pattern of signing. The era of the new owner is quite different from Abramovich as he changed everything concerning Chelsea. The blues have all the players needed but failing to scored and win games is one thing Thomas Tuchel encounter before he got sacked. That problem doesn't pause there, it's continue and the new boss, Graham Potter will be the one that would suffer it. He can still survive and take the new to another level, afterall he did that with Brighton and now he would do it with Chelsea.

Yes I agree with you, Chelsea game has changed since the old owner was punished by local authorities they are restricted in buying players and financial activities
New problems arise when Chelsea have a new owner when the player Tuchel wanted was never brought in the situation gets even more difficult when the players are no longer in line with Tuchel until he finally got fired. Now let's wait for the management's decision to bring in a new coach which is actually not very popular.

[...] one of such teams is Chelsea, and of course they now have a new manager, he'd (Graham Potter) be happy he's not been thrown right into action as he should have against Fulham in the Lunch time kickoff tomorrow, but he now has more days and even weeks (as there is no official statement as to when the EPL will return) to get to know his team more and pick his best players.

Having said that, i second what you said that it's going to be a boring weekend, i already had my plans on the games i was going to watch in the EPL this weekend, i'll prolly just focus on other leagues till we are free to resume once more.

Chelsea will have to face their next opponents eventually but yeah Potter will have good amount of time to know his team better and his options better before the game. I still think he will make decisions better after making decisions in real game. Training and real game decisions are very much different. I am however interested in how will Potter handle his new team. Its a new challenge for him and quite a difficult one as he has to manage a team in CL as well.


Yes, of course Potter has enough time to get to know the player and give an idea of ​​​​the strategy he applies. But I see, quite a lot of heavy tasks to be carried out. Potter is required to immediately bring Chelsea to victory. But I still doubt that he can bring Chelsea to glory like Tuchel did. I don't think Potter's future will last long at Chelsea. And Chelsea management's decision to sack Tuchel is something wrong.

It showed that Sadio mane was among the players that made Liverpool strong in last season because since he left Liverpool to another club, Liverpool performance dropped down that is causing fear to the mind of their coach not to receive sack letter from Liverpool president in this season. Since new players joined the Old players in Liverpool, it hard the Old players to understand the new players that is causing a lot of poor performance to Liverpool in this season. I think, Liverpool coach will definitely get it right soon because Liverpool president trust him that he will definitely help the team to recover all the losses soon to make their fans happy again.
Agree, indeed, when compared to Liverpool's growth statistics since Mane's departure, it is very clear. Consciously or not, because of the fact that Moh Salah doesn't really have a ball supply position like when Mane was there. The arrival of Darwin Nunez did not match the initial expectations which could provide a big boost. Maybe based on my eyes it's not accurate, but that's what I've noticed so far from Liverpool performance. Missing a few pieces of the puzzle.

I think Liverpool's poor performance so far is not solely a factor in Mane's departure.  But overall their performance is starting to look down.  I see Liverpool's problem now is in the defense sector, in this position Virgil Van Dijk doesn't look as strong as last season, then Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold also seem to have lost their passion, even though if you look at their performances a few seasons ago, they were quite successful in helping the defense at the same time.  build attacks through the flanks.
There was a chemistry between Sadio Mane and Mo Salah which was seen in their performances and the  games they played together. It is disappointing that the club ignored this fact and had to separate them. Sadio Mane was the back bone of the squad because he will always come through for the team in tough games and score the winning goal. I miss Sadio Mane a lot and I'm sure Klopp is having regrets now.
My thinking with LFC is that Liverpool keep a lot of bad players and let too many good players go, Losing Origi, Mane, Gini, Minamino but keeping players like Naby, Ox, Gomez is a big mistake!. Sadio Mane's departure, Liverpool really felt the importance of maintaining the chemistry between the 3 front lines that were so solid.

Todd Boehly relentless action towards wanting a new Sporting Director of football to be appointed in the club before January transfer window. He's more desperate as he's scouting for the new director that will work hand in hand with the new boss, Graham Potter. Todd taking over Chelsea have bring new changes to the club, and they have improved in some fall in some cases. The premier games postponed and it's good news because it will give both Todd Boehly and Graham Potter to get use to the Players. The big question is, who is going to be the director of sports in the club?

you know how strong City is, and how many titles they have won in the last decade, Liverpool know it, when you have a team as strong as City also competing for a title you are in,
Every team and coach of any team is aware of the power of Manchester City, so that has made them very motivated to stop it. Especially Liverpool, they have been the strongest competitor for Manchester City so far. It's true that Manchester City are the best at the moment in the Premier League, but I don't expect that to stop other teams from having good competition.

There were many who loved Queen Elizabeth in the country. There is a state of mourning across the UK right now and people do not want to do it with the fun event. They prefer to grieve out of respect, and that's why most concerts, matches, and the like have been postponed.
I don't think it will take long, in a few days life will return to its normal flow
England government have announced to public about 12 days later as mourning day respect with their loved Queen Elizabeth was pass away, all activities stop awhile for mourning days and Primer League have postponed for two weeks later. This weekend we not watch with Primer League games but have advantage for each team participants because they have many days for preparing on next schedule match. Have FIFA matchdays schedule on 19 until 27 September actually Primer League games watching back on early October. Sadness we miss two weeks without watching Primer League games actually can't saw Chelsea manager Graham Potter debut.
Actually, in this case there are several advantages for some teams like Liverpool and Chelsea because at least they can make a new scheme in this mourning holiday because Liverpool are really messed up right now and with this holiday they can make a good chance to train the club so that better. Chelsea is also the same because they will definitely have adjustments with their new coach at this time so this holiday is clearly profitable for them.]

Tuchel did not initiate a single conversation with one first team player at Chelsea for more than a year, offering him no guidance on how they could get back into his team. Boehly described Tuchel as a nightmare to work with to a league executive and more.

That is crazy that the manager wasn't even conversing with his team one on one for pretty much the whole season. It is understandable that Tuchel is struggling in his personal life as he recently went through a divorce, which can be very tough but you've got to keep professional and personal life separately and not let one effect the other.

Also, As a mark of respect to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, this weekend’s Premier League match round will be postponed.


If this is true then It is bad, I think as a coach it is ethical to talk to your team players from time to time, get to know them personally and professionally, I think almost every coach does that in modern football. You have to create that familiarity with the player so as to create a connection with them, no wonder he finds it difficult to connect and have an understanding level with the team players. Not disregarding his personal issues though but you have to keep things professional. I wish him all the best in this trying times.
