reading in one article that the pursuit of Gordon was a moneyball thing that Tuchel thought was stupid

also that if they can't get Potter they want Poch or Zidane

Woah, Zidane would be the kind of madness I'd tune in for.

According to bloke Tifo IRL had on, a lot of it was to do with Tuchel having lost the dressing room as well as being pissy about being consulted on transfers (lol?)

They had Marina doing all the transfers, then the takeover shitstorm happened and Tuchel had to answer for a lot of poo poo that wasn't his department. Then they fired Marina, Cech left and they wanted Tuchel to have an opinion on everything while all he wants to do is be left alone and coach a time. You can tell he's been kind of worn out lately.

I thought Chelsea was doing a lot more badly but they’ve won three of their six league games, all of which were played without their latest signings. This seems extremely kneejerk lol.

He definitely came up with some odd selections when we played you. One lad who now is hated by Swindon fans played for us only twice, both against Villa.

Dean Smith might not count because he was sacked by Villa and a week later got the job at Norwich.

Marco Silva got fired by Watford rather than poached by Everton.

Had to look it up and apparently it was Pardew leaving Newcastle for Palace

TBF, the fact that half the discussion about him when this was first floated involved the word "shithousery" does make me excited for this potential signing.

Yeah he seems like a nutter and only hangs around places for a couple years, probably for this reason. Given that Chelsea were just a turd in the toilet bowl waiting to be flushed it seems like not that bad if an idea?

Also Graham Potter rules and the idea that managers need big club experience is dumb.

You should hear my accent.

I wouldn't blame Klopp for wanting to go, but FSG's strategy has been totally dependent on Klopp making up for all their Moneyball shenanigans and Klopp has a lot of his contract left, so it's not going to happen.
