You kidding it would be a dream job for Potter and many managers for that matter.
Thomas Tuchel | Gone to & from Bayern (In Summer)
- Thread starter Bastian
- Start date
Probably the £300m spent on average players and the team playing like a relegation team?
Watch the next manager win them CL.
Have you just heard of Chelsea?
Let's hope it's Brendan.
They’ve literally had 2 games since the window closed.
Won one and lost one. Madness
This is insane management of a football club. Hopefully they will be in shambles, so that they won't really be in top four contention this year.
They’ve been terrible in 7 out of 8 game coupled with their terrible run of performances since Christmas.
Just think we were reportedly after him with Rangnick moving upstairs. These are sliding dooor moment.
Please not Potter.Would be shite if they got Potter.
Would make Brighton a much easier fixture for our rivals, particularly after we've already dropped points against them.

Ole in!
I've been on this boat since April last year!
Bizarre management. Why did that not happen in the summer?
Potch, Potter or Celtic gaffer
Ronaldo couldn't have made the situation any worse after all I guess
Whoa that came out of nowhere.
Why did they spend so much money getting him players for a back three?
Can only assume Boehly and Tuchel fought internally.

Brendan “Brendan” Rodgers charming the pants off Boehly.
Wow, very surprised to be honest, that feels even more brutal than when Roman was around. That said, Tuchel seems to fall out with people, maybe he's fallen out with Boehly behind the scenes. On the pitch they haven't been great but I don't think its been worth the sack already.
I guess he isn't helped by Pochettino being out of work and Potter probably being poachable. The former is bound to end up at the first big club to sack their manager and the latter will be highly sought after at the end of the season. They might think its better to get in early and find a replacement while there's some choice to be had.

Gerrard and Rodgers even bottling the sack-race.
Think Potter would do well with the squad who also plays a back 3 regularly at Brighton. I'm personally hoping they don't get him and Potter replaces Southgate after the World Cup.
Wow! I'm actually shocked.
If they were in charge, Tuchel gets a chance to turn it around. Unlike Ole, Tuchel actually deserved it!
It’s incredible how consistent Chelsea’s boom bust cycle is. Anchelotti, Jose, Conte and Tuchel at such big highs winning serious major honours, then thrown out so soon after.
On the one hand it’s worked for them as the consistent new manager bounce has delivered some big trophies.
On the other hand, the lack of stability is why they’ve never been the dominant force of English Football.

Actually hilarious
Weird club
Definitely dream job, but I actually agree that Potter should stay far away from this.
They have invested heavily and the dressing room is not working. Potter has made his considerable success being given time and patience to build a club thats incredibly successful considering their stature. Chelsea might give him resources, but he is definitely not getting time.
Potter should, in my opinion, take on a club that has a history of backing their manager for longer than a month of hardship the day he leaves Brighton.
Sacking Tuchel is such a massively weird move considering the squad investment, something must have left his lips after the CL game that the American didnt appreciate one bit.
Absolute madness. Tuchel is least responsible for the crap they are in & put up a mighty front for the club last year with all the drama. Bohley is clueless. Not that I'm complaining.
What is actually crazy is they've just gone and spend huge amounts of money on players that were basically bought around the concept of playing 3 at the back which is only really preferred by Tuchel and Conte. They almost bought Leipzig backup defender for 80m to be their starting LCB in the back three.
Timing is not bad, a new manager can actually turn around their season on all fronts, if it works.
I actually agree with this, but feck it I don't care, give me Potter right fecking now!!!!
It's a shame he'll have been given a big pay-off to keep his mouth shut as it would be fascinating to hear his take on the last 6 months.
Felt like it was coming (results and spend) but did think they'd maybe give him til WC break to see if newer players settled in and results improved. Last night's defeat would've been a tough one for owners though... given opposition (no offence) and performance.
They must have someone lined up though

Doesn't really matter though. Silva ain't getting any younger and they can easily play a back 4.
Potter will feel like he’s got Cucurella back!
They bought players for him and his system and then they sack him after one month. What a stupid move.
@Amadaeus transfer to Shed End?
Crazy
Was there rumblings of this, or just come out of the blue?
Its premature but I agree with this sacking. He looked out of ideas and a had a very negative body language. I wouldn't have bet on him turning it around.
Still bloody mental they have actually sacked him. Chelsea are mad.

That content needed a warning.Yeah just after spunking 300 mil for a new manager they get rid of him a week after. Great timing.
