Elite managers have always been few and far between. What we have now is a generation of overpaid ego's A manager needs to pick players with the right attitude in today's game.

The problem is he got lucky with Caicedo and Conor.Look I'm happy where we are so I will surf the wave of optimism with a degree of scepticism.

It all gets down to who buys the players and on ridiculous contracts!

Blimey - he's had a run of decent results but I wouldn't get too excited!

It's hard to fathom the amount of money this guy "earns" Until this money - go - round ends it's difficult to be a fan.

Did it coincide with Caciedo and Conor in midfield?.Sorry but I can't emphasise enough how important this was.

Haha the Ant Hill Mob. 'Make with the feet boy's'....tremendous stuff

Yes I'm ready to agree.I said before if we finish with a flurry he deserves another chance until next crimbo.

Like Ranieri and Mourhino?.Possible but unlikely.

Are the two paragraphs not contradictory? If he's not potentially good enough to bring us glory then why not sack him?

I'd love to know how much power Poch has on recruitment and who we let go. Maatsen looked really good pre-season and then ditched.Chabolah has always looked reliable as a centre half but seemed to be down the pecking order. Badiashile looks like he has a few teeth missing on the cog that operates his brain and yet he gets more playing time than he deserves imo.

Yes. One thing that worries me he stumbled upon the pairing of Caicedo and Conor in midfield,it wasn't his design - remember he stuck Conor out wide!. Anyway I for one is looking forward to next season - I wouldn't have said that 6 games ago.

Another win on Sunday and most will go into next season with renewed optimism. The one thing that stands out for me is the pairing of Caicedo and Conor in midfield. It's not a coincidence that we ended on a high without Enzo and these two lads as the engine in the team

The Wacky Races one of the best programmes I watched as a boy.Still brings a smile to my face when I think of it...so thanks for that. For some folk here(ROTG) though the 'gruesome twosome' are more like the 'Slag brother's😀

We paid a few shillings for cudicini and he turned out to be one of our best players.

Sorry. my attention span is equal to a goldfish.

You're lucky if you can get a ticket for the game. I'm talking about the average Chelsea fan who can't get to watch the match online.

Chara has played at a decent level as a goal keeper.Why don't you ask him what he thinks - or do you think you know more?.

I suspect you will bambozal a lot of members unintentionally.

Probably not but who cares.A lot of countries around the world will show it. All we have to do is tap in to their site

I admire your patience.We are improving because we signed a gem in Palmer and the players getting used to each other. Nothing to do with the coach.

It is a very nice narrative.The problem is some people can see that his contribution to the team is luck Napoleon said he would rather have a lucky general than a good one. We have a very good squad(when all fit) I just can't see this guy winning trophies.

No. You said we played lousy football under Tuchel - I said no we didn't - it is simply not true. The standard of football in the world is declining for sure but that is to do with money. In my humble opinion Tuchel cared - but if you have some overpaid brats in the team it makes a managers job very difficult. What European teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid have is a fan base that will not accept mediocrity.So the players try harder. We have a fan base that is mute in comparison We have a fan base that doesn't get carried away with the odd good result - that is the reason I like this site.

This is simply not true.When in your life time as a Chelsea supporter have you seen us win against the very best in Europe consistently....and here's the important bit...deservedly so?

The problem we have is Poch getting it right at the eleventh hour or is it pure luck . I think it's luck.We have players that will come good regardless who the manager is.
