I really wish Cambiasso would take a job somewhere, so we can dispel this myth. It’ll never happen though. Cambiasso was okay for us. That’s it, okay. He wasn’t really a revelation. He’s no head coach, his said that himself. That’s why he’s no longer in day to day football. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May I'm struggling to remember another appointment like this one. No disrespect to Enzo as I think he'll have a bright future in management but it's bizarre from Chelsea's point of view 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza3 Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May It's a shame as I thought he might try to get rid of Rudkin but it looks like we re stuck with him. Although the 3 managers we were linked with last summer all got promoted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realise that the VAST majority of Leicester fans wouldn’t even be aware of this Enzo out poll don’t you? Social media and reality are two very different things.

Bourbon Fox Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May Well. Here's hoping the likes of Justin, Coady and Cannon experience a magical renaissance under new management similar to Vestergaard this season. We've got a decent squad with a year together under their belts and some great momentum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have all the tools to give it a really good go. They massively under performed this season. They get that squad fit and it’s pretty good.

ronnup Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May Having just seen Ayoze Perez is in the Spain squad , I expect we will have Zizou in place by July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Poch was sacked, it never even crossed my mind they'd be interested in Enzo. They seem utterly obsessed with us and Brighton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he sorts their injuries out they are more than balanced. It's just getting it right and managing all the egos there!

Fair play to Enzo he’s going to be minted in about 8 months If he’s keen to simply coach a squad and not have any other responsibilities then that’s cool but I can’t believe that this will work out. Stuff will happen higher up which affects him and he’ll have little if any input. bit it’s a win win for him take the job If he makes a success of it then he’s set up for the merry go round of elite European coaches will all the top jobs that entails. He’s minted for life and the lives of his kids. if it goes wrong then it’s Chelsea - he’ll get a free pass for another mid table PL club to regain his reputation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That won't be enough for their mental owners. I'm pretty certain they're going to hit financial restrictions too as well, bearing in mind they've given 30 players 9 year contracts on huge wages that nobody else will pay, so shifting those will not be easy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffield_fox Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May They've probably done us a favour. Could never see us staying up with him as manager. Maybe we'll get a relegation avoidance specialist in. Cos that's what we need imo. He's been fine but I can't see why Chelsea would get him in over Poch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Posted 27 May Share Posted 27 May The £10,000,000 compensation will help us massively I’d imagine. From Enzos’ point of view, I’m disappointed he’ll most likely be leaving, however I can’t blame him. We are a mess behind the scenes. We likely don’t have the funds available to transform the squad in a way he wants. Pending points deductions and who knows what’s to come. Then you have someone dangling a massive pay cheque in front of you at a club that literally has unlimited resources, albeit it’s a basket case. If he cracks it, he could become a hero at Chelsea. The Shed End might find it an uninspiring appointment; however we didn’t really love the Ranieri appoint. Let’s just take a moment to reflect how that turned out …… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you know his thoughts. Doesn’t make much sense though as usually people use poll results to demonstrate a general consensus rather than knowingly not as you appear to suggest. Anyway who cares.

Social media and reality are two very different things. What I do know is that football fans are notoriously fickle. The fans demanding loyalty now will be the same fans who will be wanting the manager out if we’re bottom at Christmas playing boring football. I simply don’t think it’s realistic to expect loyalty after an approach from Chelsea. Fans don’t usually give managers much time and neither do the suits that appoint them. They’ve got to maximise their appeal whilst their star is high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
