Chelsea managers should not have their own thread on here. Lock this abomination!!! 🤣

He has one.

He’s in for a treat when he looks at some of his Instagram comments 🤣

I unfollowed him earlier as I don’t want a load of Chelsea shite popping up on my feed. He’s certainly getting some pelters!

Going to that bunch has probably ended the pining for him back for a lot of us, it certainly has for me!

I won’t boo him, but I sure as hell won’t be clapping him either as that’s just plain weird.

Meh! 😔

That bbq has got me. I didn't really care too much until the grill came out. That was our thing. We even gave him a BBQ. 😭

May their chicken be pink and their steak overdone. Bastards.

What is his story with Madueke?

I noticed Madueke left when Poch was still coach
Don't think it was anything personal but Poch was frankly dreadful with that generation of players and Madueke got an offer from PSV that showed him a clear path to the first team so he took it.

Don't think there's any bad feelings. But our entire academy realized there was no pathway to the first team under Pochettino.
They saw England's best players of their age group fail to break through and stall in their development being kept around the first team but never playing games or allowed loans out, which made several of 15-16 year olds decide that they had to move to better their chance of making it.
Now Madueke is a senior though, and if good enough there won't be any issue between him and Poch.

Pochettino was only good for our Academy initially, when there was holes in our team that needed filling.

Chelsea fans in the office trying to convince me what a great manager he is.

Joke's on them, I'm a veteran in this debate.

Not saying this out of bitterness that he’s now at Chelsea but his press conferences are always just a bit weak.

He always says “it will be difficult and we have to believe and we can get close”.

Contrast that to Ange who simply says “our aim is to win and also play a style of play that the players and fans enjoy”

I just feel like as good as Poch was for us he’s a bit of a ‘nearly man’. He barely got over the line with PSG in a one horse race league, he was crying his eyes out for us when we won a semi final, he lost his head in the PL run-in when we were going for the title vs Leicester or at least he could’ve used the media better when ‘everyone was a against us’.

Love what he did for us but I hope he fails miserably at that horrible plastic club he now works for.

Maybe Chelsea wouldn't have been so successful in the past 15 years if Poch didn't under achieve with our most talented team in pl era.
