Also, if the club have been doing research over the last few weeks, they will have already got their list.

Just because a coach like Potter or Rodgers becomes available doesn't mean they should go on the list

But that is exactly what Levy would do.

From the 3, I see a marriage with Slot. Nagelsmann understandable he is weighing his options up. After his Bayern experience he would be crazy to come here.

After his Bayern experience, would he be crazy to go to Chelsea? If he can't get a tune out of the 100 misshapes they've signed it does him a lot of reputational damage.

We've shown we're willing to pay big wages, but is he of the serial winner monniker to warrant that cash?

I wonder if Levy goes back to Poch now that he's losing out on Nagelsmann.

Wouldn't surprise me at all in order to try and get some goodwill back with the fans.

Ancelotti looks like he might be seeing out his contract until 2024.

I want this level of stability....I'd take him... our best bet.

I hope Slot still remains the preference from our board (over Potter and Rodgers) but I can't say with any degree of confidence that this will be the case.

I don't get why people rate Potter so highly. Clearly has major issues in his tactics in the final 3rd

Sure FFP isn't worth the paper it's written on. Chelsea aren't afraid of it they will challenge it and win. FFP only suceeds with the smaller teams as easy targets. Joke of a rule.

they have skirted FFP this year by making the signings on 8 year deals and payment terms. That means mudryk who cost 86 mil is actually only written as 8.6mil per year. So i bet their book only looks like 100 mil brought in this year

I’m not fully convinced by that skateboard merchant Nagelsmann anyways. That article about his time at Bayern was mighty concerning. Not just saying it because he’s off to Chelsea, I have thought it all along.

He seemed to underachieve at Bayern and had some issues in the locker room. He is a top manager no doubt, but a personality like that prone to clashes doesn’t typically do well with Levy and Tottenham.

They should never be on the list at a club like Spurs

For what reason? Spurs that big powerhouse that everyone wants to manage?

Yep. And then he wonders why it doesn't work out.

Still too high. We need a prehistoric letter option that was originally 47th in the Neolithic alphabet and has remained unseen for 3 million years

Would Christian Gross distant relative be on that list somewhere

Urgh, really hate seeing Rodgers lead the betting with us (even if this market is very fluid/bookies don't have a clue);

Rodgers 3/1
Poch 5/1
Potter 6/1
Nagelsmann 6/1
Kompany 6/1
Slot 8/1

And that right there is why things can change! Nagelsmann to Chelsea isn't a certainly by any means, but I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if he went there now.

People are right to take ITK including mine with a pinch of salt, but little shitty remarks which are right on the line of bashing are just unnecessary. I responded earlier saying how with Chelsea likely to sack Potter, Nagelsmann to them is a huge possibility and a reason why Nagelsmann to us wasn't the same possibility as a week or so ago. I deleted it to not get in a heated debate, but wish I had kept it now.

Long story short, people don't need to take the ITK as gospel, but we pass on to try and give snippets to the community and the comments are just unnecessary.

Change your Avatar and all is forgiven :sneaky:

Chelsea might be a basket case this season but they’ve got a bucket load of young talent, most of which would fit Nagelsmann’s coaching talents and they don’t have many older statesmen types which undid Nagelsmann at Bayern. It’s an annoyingly good fit for them.

This is about the jist of it. Price of Football has done many pods on this... it's within the rules, and is forcing the rules to be changed.

Horse, bolted, and always other clubs taking advantages of the loopholes.

Yep corrupt dodgy scammers they just playing FFP like Man City, PSG etc do and they will never gever get done disgraceful how it can be abused.

Di Marzio:
Chelsea rate him very high and may push to get it done soon: the Blues could even find an agreement in the coming days in order to have Nagelsmann on the bench as the coach next season, as he's not keen on joining with just a few games until the end of the season.

Why the fuck have we not acted decisively like a big club and got him signed on for next season already? Chelsea seemingly have him on board already. Absolutely fucking pathetic.

Oh well it was fun while it lasted

Seriously though there are so many talented coaches about I’m not worried at all.

Even if we did end up with Rodgers it wouldn’t be an absolute disaster.
