As a Spurs fan I was genuinely worried about Chelsea next season. We obviously know how good a manager he can be and he seemed to have got it to click in the second half of the season with some very good young players.

Truly hilarious stuff from Chelsea ownership. As soon as it looked like a manager was getting a grip of the job and working with the squad they built, he's gone. But we'll see, is this a O'Neil/Iraola situation where they get better? or is it another Tuchel debacle, where they'll regret it in a years time?

Baffling decision. Stuck with him when they struggled. He starts to turn things around, 4th best team in the second half of the season, climbed into Europe, cup final and semi final, never lost the dressing room. Surely that's enough to give him more time to build?

I was blindsided by this when I saw it earlier. I've been a harsh critic of him, but he had managed to turn things around and get us into the position we should've been through most of the second half, and especially the end of the season. He'd earned the right to continue and push further next year. This board are an absolute circus and will end up sinking the club if they keep on the same trajectory. They asked us to trust the process and they cant even trust it themselves. Also confirms that they're going to go out of their way to sell Gallagher and Chalobah, and just make life way more difficult for homegrown rules and have to pay through the nose for some other random player to fill the numbers because of "pure profit". As for a replacement, De Zerbi will be entirely wrong. He was proven to be a fraud this year and will only end up in the same position 6 months down the line. He's West Ham level. Frank, Maresca and the other names thrown out there also aren't good enough. McKenna has potential, but again needs time. The only options I'm keen for would be Tuchel, Amorim or maybe Hoeness at a stretch.

Having a sporting director and a director of football isn't unusual, but two sporting directors seems needlessly top heavy.

The circus continues at my club. Never a dull moment, maybe there’s a brillent plan in place but let’s be honest it’s a shit show since day dot with these owners. Here we go again!

This morn above your comment is somehow even more delusional. Jackson has like sub 50 professional GAMES IN HIS CAREER.

I’m so pissed off right now. He was finally figuring it out. I genuinely concerned for the future of our club with these owners in charge.

I can see that Poch is not a bad manager. I can see he had a difficult job. I can see his failures, even during 2024 when we started getting results. We lost 5-0 to Arsenal, we dropped points to Burnley and Sheffield united in winning positions. Unforgivable failures to me but I would’ve been comfortable going into the next season with him. I am pretty confident this wasn’t a “we didn’t get top 4 and trophies, you are gone” thing like we have done for the last two decades. This really feels like a power struggle and Poch understanding he can cut the rope and leave unscathed. He knows he won’t get what he wants so he can just go find that elsewhere. It does send an ugly message though. No continuity and too much derailing all progress at this club. I know there’s a shortage of top managers in the world and we can’t just go get the best in the world like we used to but the idea of hiring a guy managing Ipswich just feels like a massive mistake. I feel like there’s traits that a manager has to have to succeed at Chelsea and I just don’t think a younger manager will have built them yet. This sport has changes a lot in the last two decades. We can’t continue to be the arrogant Chelsea of old, we’re no longer able to just take the best of the best from the best.

Imagine being a young player at Chelsea. How do you learn a style enough to actually benefit from the experience in the future? How do you plan for next season knowing you're going to have to buy players for a new style when you already have a bloated squad? Place is an absolute shambles!

Pochettino has a system that requires his type of players playing his type of ball. It works when he gets the time to build that. That's why I never understood the hire in the first place because there is no way Chelsea would ever give that kind of time to any manager.

So surprised he was just starting to find his groove!!

I had the same reaction- seemed obvious they were lining up de Zerbi. But after hearing that a large reason for pochettino leaving is him disagreeing with recruitment and wanting more input, I’d be surprised if they go for de Zerbi given that Brighton parted ways with him for the exact same reason.

Without even knowing who the new manager is, I'm predicting he will be sacked in a year...

I think we all expected Poch to a name on the list of managers leaving jobs next season. I don't think we expected it to be now though. Surely this is going to cause a ripple effect now which will carry over into late next season as we watch ETH, Howe, Emery, Lopetegui all likely to be the higher profile names at risk now.

The more football goes on I think we see the values of great and long term relationships between players and coaches so breaking those can be dangerous

The training being minimal makes sense if you watched us for the first 30 games of the season Any good from this chelsea team has come from individual brilliance and not coaching

Just a thought - not sure I agree with the bit in the form of the last portion of the season. Tuchel only just finishing 3rd when they were on for the league initially was pretty predictive of them starting badly the following season and him getting sacked. Leicester’s great escape and the form then seemed to propel them the next year

Really unfortunate for Chelsea. The most important thing in football is club management and you see it in how poorly both Chelsea and Utd have been managed by clueless Americans.

I know just focusing on the Big 6 gets the most views but remember the little guys! Thanks.

It seems weird not to mention how throughout the season Poch has said several times that he still liked tottenham. I think he was unhappy and just wanted to leave

So happy, we deserve this. Been terrible for 9 months but people changed their tune after 5 games, of which we played well for a game and a half where Cucurella inverted to midfield, then straight back to no tactics and got lucky against Brighton, Bournemouth, Forest. Not to mention lucky against United, terrible against Arsenal, couldn't beat relegation sides Sheffield and Burnley. Mentioned by heaps of ex players under Poch about his injury ridden training methods. Lots of mentioned while in France about his lack of tactics and game in management. He put this club in 12th, then got praised for getting them out of the position he put them in by playing everyone out of position, no tactics in build up, attacking flow, defensive style, set piece knowledge, anything what so ever.

The last month makes this feel like an egregious error but watching Chelsea all season, it was so obvious that we weren’t in a good enough place. “Big club” nonsense is often just that but Chelsea has spent way too much money and has too much talent to struggle as consistently as Chelsea did against lesser competition all season. Games against Burnley, Sheffield, Forest, Luton, and several other low level competition were up for grabs until the final whistle in large part because of Poch’s tactical limitations. Depends on the next hire of course (we shouldn’t be too optimistic that the Americans will get it right) but it is still probably the right decision. A bold decision for sure but probably the right one based on the full season rather than the last 5.

Its a wrong move for De Zerbi if he goes. Clearly the Chelsea board and owners goals are not winning trophies and competing at the highest level, its making profits in players and the club. You can see it immediately with the signing of a 17 years old for 40m+ while having multiple talents like that lying around without regular gameplay. De Zerbi had similar issues at Brighton with the hierarchy asking him to develop new players so they can sell them for huge profit and not concentrate on winning games only if that means they cannot do the first thing. Best place for de Zerbi would be Man united. He would align very well with the new owners and board like Ashworth, Berrada, Wilcox

Nice to see Marti isn't on that list of potential managers to replace him!

You could tell there were issues, Gallager constant rumours to be sold: playing every week and often captain.

Whoever comes in will not survive the season, some fans are celebrating that Poch left, and the same fans will be calling for the new manager’s head at the first possible opportunity.

My gut feeling on the dinner will be in relation to potches remuneration. This is just my opinion but back in January we couldn’t afford to pay Potch off or buy a new manager.

I am so surprised that Chelsea have sack their manager, he took the club above M. Utd which their manager is still with M. U

Poch next england manager after euros? I'd be more than down for that. Not to take anything away from Southgate but if we don't win I'd like to see a new manager in the role

Clearly there was a disagreement somewhere but it doesn’t really make much sense

Two thoughts: 1. Don’t do it Kieran, you’ve got a good career ahead of you which will be ruined if you go to Chelsea now. 2. What are the odds on Boehly appointing himself?!

It’s very obvious, Poch wanted to keep chalobah and Gallagher and wanted a say in the transfer market - the board have said no to both so he’s left - they want to assemble the squad and just hand it over to a yes man coach

every manager they get is a “new project” that they’ll keep and not get impatient with and by the end of the season theyre sacked. the chelsea cycle continues

Disappointed but not surprised Chelsea did this. I rate McKenna but not sure why he would want come to us and I’m not sure he’s ready yet. I think Ruben Amorim is the best option and I think his system would be good fit with the squad. I rather have just kept Poch.

Im hoping it's not De Zerbi, I think he's been found out this season a bit, let alone his temperament just screams issues with the higher ups very quickly

This is crazy, because it's all about the money, and the player sales and the points deductions that are in the pipe

Potential Ripple effect, poch availability leads to ten hag sacking. Currently one of the main cons of sacking ten hag is the lack of availavle managers suited to such a project. With poch now available this may provide the spark utd need to get rid of ten hag. (Not saying i want this, but seems possoble)

Absolutely the right decision!

I was not expecting this. Haven't checked my phone and so I was kind of not believing you when I saw this video. It's pretty funny though after Chelsea started improving 😂

Chelsea having a laugh. No one should take this job as it's been a poisoned chalice for 10+ years.

i think the fans understood the undertaken of the job there so ..gave him time and were ok... seems rash and mabye overly harsh

How do you think West Ham will do under the new management scheme of a technical director in Tim Steidten and coach Julen Lopetegui… a way of management we’ve not gone about things before⚒️

It seems bizarre that Chelsea has sacked Pochettino considering they went on a pretty good run towards the end of the season and they’re now going to unsettled their squad (which were starting to become settled) by having a new manager trying imprint his own ideas and tactics

I don’t know what these cowboys are doing, agreed I wasn’t a fan of Poch’s appointment but he kinda stirred the ship to a safe place at the end of the season but now the cowboys just pulled the ship back in to the storm with their ropes.

You content creators must love Chelsea, the amount of clicks they've given you over the past few years.

This new ownership is blowing through managers

Bayern want their managers to speak German I think. Even Pep studied it before he took the job there.

Im glad the fans are pissed off... not like that butnin their anger at the hierarchy....from the outside looking in there is some very questionable decisions being made. As a everton fan i am sick of our owner not isure id change him for chelseas so

Thought chelsea fans said top 6 is NOT the standards angry with Poch and now Chelsea fans are crying Poch is sacked. Like what, which one is it make up your minds. Dunno if this is good or bad for us rival fans. I'm saying its bad news cus Poch is a guarantee to NOT win a trophy. Hopefully Chelsea don't get a good manager and they stay firmly a mid table team forever 🙏

There is no pinch of salt the pressure was on to get Europe and he did it

I’m a Chelsea fan & I felt that they should have stuck with Poch when he was starting to get results with a whole new bunch of young players and still managed to finish 6th despite the inconsistency. Definition of 1 steps forward 2 steps back. Frustrating as a Chelsea fan. Shocking decision by the owners.

They should only have done this if they Had Zidane or Ancelotti lined up for the job but now we are hearing "the search is on" what kind od backwards planning is that. Finally start feeling good about my club again and they just sour this end of the season.

I have to say I'm getting sick to death of Chelsea, to a point where I almost want to them to fail as much as Palace. 11 players and staff they've taken from us in 2 years, its ridiculous. And De Zerbi would probably hurt the most of them all 😢

Best KZreadr facts

“Mauricio will always be welcome back” Well that’s fortunate, because he manages Soccer Aid there in two weeks

The team that the sporting directors are trying to build suits De Zerbi more than it ever did Poch, an Enzo/Caicedo double pivot screams De Zerbi. They want a high possession team with control, which Poch couldn’t reliably create and Poch favoured players like Gallagher and Chalobah that the SDs weren’t fond of Honestly, I’m starting to lose patience with the sporting directors and owners that completely support them. Hoarding young talent for big money, who may never play for Chelsea or even make profit, and being forced to sell first team contributors to balance the books. It all seems backwards and everything is in constant flux. We need stability and the club is seemingly allergic to it

We'll know more as the leaks unfold. Poch had dinner with Boehly as you read out and then on Sat or Sun he met with Eghbali and again on Mon with him and the two Directors. Looks like they could not come to an agreement and decided to part ways. IF they go with DeZerbi that is the opposite of a young up and coming manager, someone who is moldable almost. Or am I missing something.

A deity? Poch would never be a deity at Chelsea. He’s done a good job progressing an exciting squad, but these owners do not lack ambition.

A million new relationships, that’s just the new manager and the players

I think it’s crazy how they’ve sacked him! It’s a miracle they finished as high as they did with the issues they had this season.

People have absolutely been swayed by some good results. Look at the underlying performances in those games, we were conceding a ton of shots and getting results because of the quality of individuals (hence a bunch of 90+ minute winners). His tactical style just did not fit this squad. It won’t fit this squad. We have a bunch of top level technicians, we played an insanely transitional style that wasn’t focused on possession at all. It’s just a bad fit for this squad

Poch could do wonders with Brighton!

My prediction: Amorim to Chelsea. Young, Portuguese and weirdly fits the Chelsea profile.
