Depending on who they bring in (and I'm stumped to think of who they could and expect results right now) I'm fancying there might be a bit of an exodus from Stamford Bridge in the summer, entirely with the blessing of the owner, and a huge pot handed to the new man to rebuild.

Best hope Roman is in a spending mood.
Chelsea will always have a massive turnover of managers whilst Roman is owner. Saying that, they've won a fair few trophies even without what one would call a 'project'.

This is the problem when you build a club on the process of hiring mercenaries.

They’ve had success since Abramovichs takeover of course they have, Champions league winners, premier league winners and numerous other trophies, hard to knock it. However equally they have won those trophies by spending an absolute shedload. The problem they have given themselves now is he players run the club, games like today, if they do t want to play for a manger anymore they just down tools and wait for him to be sacked. Sarri will go after today, as for who comes in next it depends who wants a multi million pound payout for at most, a couple of seasons work.

Does anyone know what the situation regarding Roman Abramovich is?

When they sacked Scolari mid way through the season they were third in the league. They’ve fallen a long way since then in terms of their prestige in the league.

I actually think Sarri will last the season. Why bring in a manager with a set in stone footballing philosophy if you’re not going to give him the time to implement it?

if real madrid decide not to go for hazard. would you fancy a sneaky bid for him on a 3 year contract? offer him CL football.

Is it a coincidence that 2 clubs with owners that dont care, are performing worse as clubs compared to 5 years ago?
Chelsea and Arsenal

The Chelsea fans digging out the "Champions of Europe You'll never be that" chant at 6-0...

Embarrassing.

Not even taking into account the fact you could easily see this City side doing exactly that.

It must be the stuff of dreams when as a football manager your agent calls you to say they want you as manager. 6 months work then a £10 million pay off. You really can’t lose.
