With the information rising that Chelsea at the moment are near hiring Leicester Metropolis supervisor Enzo Maresca as their subsequent head coach shifting ahead, Chelsea followers will not be completely happy.
They’re not completely happy on the whole, I can see that on the market with my very own eyes throughout social media proper now. However they aren’t completely happy both by myself private Substack group, Si Phillips Talks Chelsea.
Sure, I’m starting to remorse wanting Mauricio Pochettino gone! The shortlist of latest managers has been underwhelming all week let’s be sincere. I’ve been clutching at the truth that possibly they’re smokescreens, and possibly they nonetheless are, I really feel like some nonetheless are and all the time had been. However let’s see what right now brings on that.
For me, the one candidate that I might really get behind and charge is Ruben Amorim, however apparently he’s now off the agenda totally. I do hope there’s a VERY good motive that we’re not appointing him, as a result of he was the man.
Not one of the others have impressed or excited me in any respect, not even a bit. I’ll again and help whoever is available in, and I will even search for and draw on the positives of whoever we resolve on, even when that’s Roberto De Zerbi. However I can’t cover my feelings, disappointment, and true underwhelming emotions of our pending subsequent head coach. I’d even moderately throw Cesc Fabregas in there over the opposite names if we really need to rent somebody younger and utterly inexperienced. And I don’t assume I’m joking there both!
Truthfully, that is THE largest resolution they make. If this subsequent supervisor fails then I would like heads to roll with out ANY excuses. In the event that they rent the SIXTH one who has been named a head coach at this membership throughout the final two years they usually fail, then there needs to be ZERO excuses, heads need to roll.
That is SUCH a massively dangerous technique, and one that would backfire massively. Or possibly it doesn’t and possibly they get it spot on. And in the event that they do, we are going to all applaud and reward them for that, after all. I don’t have agendas right here, simply name issues as I see them.
The worrying factor is that judging by our latest set of votes, the 2 candidates that David Ornstein says are the one recognized choices remaining to turn into the brand new Chelsea supervisor, are the 2 least common decisions amongst this well-respected Chelsea fan group on right here.
Out of the 4 alleged shortlisted managers (from yesterday morning’s now out-dated information), this was the outcomes of who you need essentially the most:
- Roberto De Zerbi – 42%
- Kieran McKenna – 36%
- Enzo Maresca – 15%
- Thomas Frank – 6%
And including in Ruben Amorim to the identical ballot vote:
- Ruben Amorim – 73%
- Roberto De Zerbi – 18%
- Kieran McKenna & Enzo Maresca – 4%
- Thomas Frank – 1%
Think about in the event that they now rent Frank!!
That is simply astonishing although. I actually hope they know what they’re doing right here, as a result of it is a fan base who might be able to explode if it goes unsuitable now, with the bulk being towards the choices we’re apparently about to pick out from.
I’ve no doubts that the group on right here will get behind whoever is appointed, as I’ll too. However I’d be so fearful about it getting very poisonous once more if we don’t get outcomes subsequent season and see progress.
De Zerbi is like marmite, he utterly splits this fanbase who’re both obsessive about him or hate him. This rent would simply create extra Chelsea fan civil wars, whereas Amorim, even when he wouldn’t be everybody’s first selection, would definitely unite a fanbase a bit extra.
I’d be going for expertise and confirmed anyway, but it surely appears this lot haven’t any worth on expertise in any respect which once more, is a HUGE danger.
I’m massively sceptical and fearful, I can’t lie. I’ll again whoever it’s, and it appears like it might nicely now be Maresca. I don’t even dislike him and I do assume there are numerous positives about his setup and the way it could go well with the gamers. I see the attraction and I’ll begin to look extra into his positives and analysis him extra now right now in different articles. I’m prepared to offer him an opportunity and I truly assume he has the makings of supervisor. However none of that has been my concern, my concern is inexperience, making the step as much as Chelsea, by no means managing within the Premier League, and the way a lot of a HUGE danger it could be.
Sigh, once more. So many sighs these days.
