Chico1958 Posted 7 September 2022 Share Posted 7 September 2022 Todd Boehly - probably looked at Fofana's 4/10 performance and thought Tuchel screwed him over. What's going to happen when Aubameyang doesn't turn up for training now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you remember quite a few years ago. I think Mandaric was the owner. Steve Walsh made a bit of public declaration that he wanted the managers job. Even announced he had applied on Radio Leicester. A few weeks later, asked on RL how it went, he came out and said, I've had no response. Similar scenes, maybe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taupe Posted 7 September 2022 Share Posted 7 September 2022 Amazed that Brighton have given permission so quickly (or maybe it wasn't??) Maybe they feel there's no point in standing in his way, and wouldn't want to anyway, but they're risking a loss of momentum. Praps they have a replacement (or ideas of) lined up already?

Guy must be knackered, and the last thing he needs is to join a relegation battle with a crocked defense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityfanlee23 Posted 7 September 2022 Share Posted 7 September 2022 I really cannot see Potter doing well there, just a gut instinct but I can’t see it. If they choose Potter over Poch then Chelsea have officially lost the plot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hankey Posted 7 September 2022 Share Posted 7 September 2022 I wonder what folk will have to talk about when Rodgers has gone? Berate the new manager when things haven't turned around I suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volpeazzurro Posted 7 September 2022 Share Posted 7 September 2022 3 minutes ago, ian__marshall said: This Chelsea sacking is a problem for us. I can see the board thinking that whilst there's a possibility he could end up there then it wouldn't make sense to sack him and lose out on compensation. From Chelsea's point of view if Rodgers becomes available I can see them appointing him on a short term contract with a view to extending. If he does well they'll keep him, if not it buys them time to line up a suitable replacement. This could continue for a while, as I could also see Brighton going after BR if he was a free agent should Potter end up at Chelsea, and likewise Villa would probably go for him if they sack off Gerard at some point in the near future. Someone at board level is going to have to make a tough decision, although I guess the benefit of going early does mean that you potentially have a the pick of crop if the board were to consider someone currently in a job. Whilst I see where you're coming from, I don't see any of those teams being stupid enough to want Rodgers. Chelsea would merely laugh at the idea. As for the other two, notwithstanding Rodgers current bottom of the table standing, his own performance in blaming our owners, players and supporters instead of keeping a stiffer upper lip and trying to be positive isn't a good advertisement to a prospective new employer. Rodgers, instead of courting sympathy, has through his egotistical self obsessed whinings might possibly just have cooked his own goose. However, if he was to be sacked now, would I be right in thinking that if he did start work for any of those teams, the money he'd be allowed to claim from Leicester would be lessened? Likewise if he really wanted to look good, he could come to a reasonable agreement now in a mutual consent deal perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg67 Posted 7 September 2022 Share Posted 7 September 2022 Look at the way Brighton play under Potter, and how we play under Rodgers. What in Brighton's management over the past couple of years would make anything think they're dumb enough to want him there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1ddo71 Posted 7 September 2022 Share Posted 7 September 2022 Why would Brighton want Rodgers, after they just mashed us? How would they have belief in his systems? Only could be down to the good 2 years or so at a new club. If they do want him make sure the contract lies in your favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chelsea have indicated they are willing to pay the rumoured £16M buyout clause of Potters contract, then there's probably nothing they can do to stop him form speaking to Chelsea, other than trying to get him to sign another contract on vastly better terms. A bit like we did with Brendan when Arsenal came sniffing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
