So that revolves around revenue, that means making money for you slow folks. Here's an interesting game you guys can play with each other... Who decided Abromovich needed to go?

The one redeeming thing I can say about this ownership is I do think they want to win first & foremost, not be content lining their pockets coasting in top 4 giving fans no memories along the way (a la ENIC & Spurs). They are Abramovich's spiritual successors in that sense, but my god they have ALOT to learn about English football culture. If there's one lesson I hope gets learnt from this season, there's a lot more but this one is a good start, the next time we're lucky enough to have one of the best managers in the world who the fans have a connection with, you bend over backwards to keep him! Doesn't matter if he's a pain to work with, completely irrelevant, if he's producing you suck it up & keep him.

He made the same mistake Mike Ashley made when he took over Newcastle, surrounded himself with people who know nothing about football and put people in decision making positions that have no right to be operating at those levels. I don’t actually think Potter would have been a bad appointment if he had actually been allowed to develop his OWN team and change the squad more organically rather than having an onslaught of signings I’m sure he never asked for and probably wouldn’t suit the way he intended to play. The decision to bring in Lampard was ridiculous, if the decision to bring in an interim appointment was as good as writing the season off, then they might as well have just continued the season with Potter and either fired him at the end or accepted a transitional season with a host of players forced on him with no preseason behind them. If they wanted a replacement manager they should have had one line up and if one didn’t want to join part the way into a season then hold on to Potter until the season ends, it’s that simple.

And when you spend 600million pounds, we expect to win and so would any football fan.

It's clear that Beohly has a great understanding of business, markets and branding but we have to agree that he has no idea about football. Sometimes humility is a trait that most of these so called business leaders need to learn and adopt. Roman Abramovich was humble enough to stay away from the day to day running of the club and he hired the best to take care of the players and manage the brand. He only made executive decisions in line with the vision his team was implementing. Boehly is a proud man and it won't end well. I can assure you Sir. You have bitten more than you can chew.
Hes learned one thing in his first season about the Premier League which is he simply doesn't belong in it.
This guy seems like a good owner in the sense he wants to win. However if he doesn’t understand football then he’s going to make bad decisions and when it comes to football nothing is more important than recruitment, look at what it did to Barcelona other last few years…

Let’s have it right, if Roman was in charge then Tuchel would have been sacked last season. It’s the players fault.
He needs to stop picking the starting eleven and let the manager have a free hand to pick the team. He also needs to consult the manager before buying a player. Owners own the club that’s what they do. They don’t pick teams or buy players without consulting a manager.

Even if Chelsea bounces back and improves significantly next season, there's a fundamental flaw within the organisation. The upper management has no patience to see their seeds grow and I suspect such lack of patience stems from their pride and thin skin. The new ownership seems to have lower tolerance towards embarrassment. If things go south again they will panic and set the reset button which sets every progress back to ground zero.

Look at Napoli now. They signed the right players for a decent price and now reaping the rewards while we overpaid for bums who aren’t good enough to play for us.
there are checks against players who aren't good enough. there are checks against incompetent managers. but who checks the owners? Boehly, eghbali, the glazers, levy, Ashley and others are the best case examples to defend the argument for club members owning football clubs.
Getting rid of Tuchel was your biggest mistake (and you've made a few since). Who cares about the top city, country. Stop thinking about Chelsea as a product you want to sell.
Respected Todd Bohley and Egbahli can learn a thing or two from Ryan Reynold and Rob McElhenney. YOU NEED TO GIVE POWER TO THE MANAGER. IT IS NOT ONLY YOUR BOAT TO SAIL. Entering Dressing Room every game. Barking at players with their price tag is such a poor display of ownership.

Boelhy doesn't understand that paying 120m for a 60m player isn't going to make the player 2 times better.
Sacking the backroom team and the directors was the most stupidest thing I have ever seen. Then add to buying 12 players on top of what you have without selling anyone. He killed my club in 12 months and it will probably take years (if done right) to get it back to how it was

But to Toad's credit he has signed greay young players but he needs to sign the right coach. Luis Enrique was super ideal. But if Pochinttino is the next coach then make him start now with Lampard taking a back seat and learning how to manage a squad. Any decent manager can see that it is better to start Badiashale instead of Azpi. Azpi has slowed down a lot and made many mistakes it is better he comes on from the bench. He aint as sturdy as Thiago Silva to be starting
We are screwed
The guy has been humbled big time 😂
To paraphrase: “I want exceptional ROI but I don’t have a clue about how to do that”
He didn’t even answer the question of the “surprises” he faced, just talking business which I understand but he needs to do the business side of things and let the club deal with the football side of things, no need to come into dressing rooms after a defeat and scold players, that’s a managers job, next season new players and new manager but Todd needs a new approach himself
From champions league to relegation scrap, gotta love Todd 🤣🤣🤣
From Roman Abramovich to a guy who is just learning Football. That was a big mistake to sell Chelsea to not qualified guy who just have money but no knowledge
One song comes to mind concerning our owners. American idiot by green day.
In my head i imagine toad bohlly will say something like " don't wary fams and bluds.. We got this ok! We still have the play offs i guess" 😭
Maybe just step aside and get the right guys in. At this rate relegation next season for sure. Market this market that, clearly you have no idea what happens in the transfer market. You buy the right players to fit the scheme. None of the players you bout fit anywhere
yeah but in the championship :P
And it looks like he’s figuring it out
He only speaks of Chelsea as a business, but we are a team, a sports football team, he just doesn’t get it! Why on earth did this guy buy us!!!?
its going to be a much longer game in the championship todd, get your wellies out
It’s so hard listening to an American investor who clearly has absolutely no clue about football. I think such takeovers can be a great push for certain clubs but only if the acquirer actually knows what the hell he‘s doing.
There's nothing to figure out.
