Tuchel would have scared Mudryk away after one call man.
"We see you as a versatile player; LW, LWB, LCB, you have the tools to play all these positions"
Their whole model is to buy these players and then sell them for astronomical profit.
You promise the player in January, and then keep him until he’s going to force the move himself in the next few days.
It’s a terrible approach to make the player look bad.
This was Chelsea before this weird attachment with Cobham was built.
We were at our most dominant when buying Europe’s best talent.
Now, we worry about how the player that we bought will block the pathway of some 17 year old in the academy.
If we had kept Pochettino then we would be in the same situation as Manchester United.
Lethargic and uninspiring style of play that will never change regardless of the players.
There is nothing worse than tuning in every weekend hating the way that your team plays football.
This is very false.
Klopp x Edwards
Pep x Txiki
and more
These are examples of profile collaboration with the board, not a "say" over the transfers.
RDZ has also said prior that managers request profiles and then rely on the board to get those players.
All Pochettino wants is to have a say on transfers if he’s going to be the manager of Chelsea. Every top manager will want that and the last 10 games have shown he’s a very good manager. Interesting days ahead.
@E100000_
gets so much hate but they never waver from their objective.
Locked up a core of : Felix, Palmer, Mudryk, Neto, Nkunku, Jackson, Enzo, Caicedo, Lavia, Ugo, Gusto, Esetvao, Kendry for the next decade
@TomK03_
I personally like Brighton and their model.
But, this approach is basically going to make him force a move.
According to all reports, he had a pact with De Zerbi to leave at a good valuation.
Top performance from Veiga.
Him and Cucu is the perfect duo at that LCB/LB hybrid due to their aggressiveness in the press and ability to cover wide spaces.
Much better performance OOP but we still need to clean up our intent in the final third.
Manchester City fans don’t care about their academy prospects because if they’re good enough, they’ll find a way to break through.
Just like Foden, Palmer and Lewis did.
🚨 Chelsea have been unable to get an option to buy on the João Félix loan.
Chelsea seriously considered moving in December but didn't because they saw no value. Meetings then took place internally over the last 48 hours, with Potter; Chelsea went for it.

At Chelsea, we give these academy players entitlement to a place in the squad, and then proceed to cry when they leave.
They leave because top clubs buy the best on the market, they don’t wait around till these academy prospects reach their potential.
@CFCDaily
@CFCPys
I doubt that.
I'm sure Havertz still has a market.
Ziyech and Auba will be small transfer fees but there's a market for them too.
Mendy 100% has a market in Italy and France
Mount, Gallagher and Pulisic 100% have a market in the PL.
The only ? is Lukaku.
The manager market in summer 2024 :
- RDZ
- Sarri
- Xabi Alonso
- Amorim
- Tuchel
- Slot
If we somehow don’t land one of these managers then there’s no coming back.
We have one last chance to rectify our terrible managerial decisions.
Raheem Sterling and Thiago Silva showed tonight that team has outgrown them.
Young players who are hungry to win titles and want to play with each other > "Experience"
@Gbadz7ii
Caicedo is scanning about 5 times before even receiving there and either playing a dead ball back to the keeper to kill the press or the LB with a flick to start a transition

because you can easily get 35-40 million for him. He's also a home-grown talent so that helps a lot with FFP.
He just doesn't fit in our system as a top team. He's better suited in end to end games when the best teams prefer control
- A 6th place finish
- Questionable training regiment resulting in injuries
- Mis-profiling of players for over 30 match weeks
- Chastising the upper managements squad planning in pressers
- Constant shifting of goal posts throughout the season
DO NOT earn you a say.
The excitement of tuning into Chelsea games hasn’t been this high in a long time.
We finally have a manager that will not sacrifice his way of playing and understands the importance of profiles.
( a mini-thread )
Marc Cucurella on Enzo: “I was watching Argentina because of Alexis, and I said; ‘I really like number 24, he’s very good'. And I didn't know where he played. I kept watching Argentina and I told my family and friends with whom I watched the matches, 'I like number 24”

@CFCPys
Different progression, patterns, and style of the 3 though.
He uses wingers to overload 1 v 1 scenarios compared to Tuchel where he used IF to create overloads in half-spaces.
It also gives us more attacking freedom in the box.
@om18i
😭😭😭
51 and not even close to the profile we're looking for.
The manager will be under 45 I reckon and I can almost predict the final list ;
RDZ
Hoeness
Motta
McKenna
Benfica rejected our first offer, like in any negotiation.
But, they released briefs to we rush our second offer to get nearer to their clause and our fans ate it up
@David_Ornstein
@TheAthleticFC
I hate my club.
The one player that would solve the most issues this window but we want to go for another target 9 that solves nothing due to there being 0 creative players at the club.

@AdamGMillington
They're trying to build a culture where for the first time since Mourinho in his first season, the manager is more valued than the players
