RowlattsFox Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May Really unusual to lose your manager to Chelsea, having just won the Championship, and feel that Chelsea are the ones getting the raw deal. Some of the comments are over to the top, and arguably a bit disrespectful to his achievements here but that said, I have no disappointment feelings about him going. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly surprising when all they've got to go on is the Cup game where we were an absolute shambles in the first 45 minutes. If Raheem Sterling could kick a ball in the general direction he wanted it to go we'd probably have been at least 3 down at HT. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really isn't all that, and I doubt he will finish Champions League, but he moves at a time when Klopp has just left and Manchester United are in a bit of a mess. Probably best time to join for him, best change he and Chelsea have in a long time. A couple of dropped points and their fans will be on his back.

Hirsty The Blue 94 Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May Win Win for both parties. He wouldn't have got what he wanted here from a recruitment standpoint if he had stayed and probably jumped at any job should it have came up during the season, which would have caused more upheaval than this with still near on 3 months to the start of the season. He gets a massive contract where if he is booted early gets a mighty pay off. Another positive for us other than the 10 million release clause in the bank balance (finally Rudkin has done something sensible) is that he is going there as head coach with limited say on transfer activities, so he's unlikely to come back and raid us on the cheap for any of our assets, Hermansen in particular would be a perfect fit for his team at Chelsea as their keepers aren't up to much. Dunno what reception he will get if he is still in charge by the time we play Chelsea at home, he delivered the bare minimum given the squad we had, but equally would probably still be here had Top, Rudkin and Whelan hadn't sold him a lie when he first joined about the absolute state of the FFP mess we're in.

He'll have the money to get the players in he needs. . he'll organize them well and will make them difficult to beat. He did very well at putting square pegs in round holes at Leicester and the average player will have a higher technical ability than what we have. so he is going to be a success. im sure of it. and so many will have egg on their faces., I'm not angry at him or Chelsea for this, im angry with how our financial handlings have allowed this situation to develop. I'm angry at the board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted 28 May Share Posted 28 May The right outcome overall in my opinion. I do think he would have really struggled with us next season, he is a great coach, did a fantastic job last season, but ultimately his shortcomings would have been a major weakness for us. Thanks for everything, and enjoy the toxic environment that is Chelsea football club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flip side I think you are over rating Enzo. I have said that all season and stand by it now. He did what he needed to do here, but with our budget/facilies/squad any half decent manager would have achieved the same. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He if he has anything about himself will be looking for a move ASAP as he does not fit into his style one bit. Forfana on the other hand if they get him fit and firing could thrive.

Then people can make an informed decision on whether Enzo's actions were reasonable given the context. Im not blind to the fact that loyalty only goes so far. But one season 🤔🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
