Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Chelsea thread

Hazard officially real Madrid player

It must be nice to be able to actually complete transfers.

 

[Dirty Ewok]

Apparently they haven’t contested the ban at this moment so it still stands

I work with a CFC supporter. He was saying that there is a rumour going around that if Chelsea appeal they would get to use this window BUT....it opens them up to having the transfer ban lengthened to 2 years.

Hazard officially real Madrid player

Great news. Will be interesting to see how he does there with so much more pressure on him. He won’t be able to turn it just on when he fancies it. He’ll be expected to produce week in week out.

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

Sarri off, too. Lovely stuff.

Wonder who they will get as head coach next. Whoever it is won’t last longer than 18-24 months, it’s the Chelsea way. Wonder if they’ll poach Fat Frank and then in a year or two do the dirty on one of their own.

They’ll have to bung them a lot of cash if they have that transfer ban. Without doing that, not many top managers will want to go there if they can’t bring players in.

The ban should be an exciting time for the club. Get a progressive manager in and play the youngsters for a year. They’ve some potentially good players there. Take a hit on where they may finish in the league for one season but give them a chance to see if they are good enough for the league. They won’t, but they should and you’d think their fans would like to see some of their home grown lads brought through.

If I were a Chelsea fan I’d be excited to see what a manager like Lampard could do with a free hit of a season and a bunch of youngsters. It’d be a great chance for them to have a massive clearout of the old guard and change the culture within the club. He’s a club legend, so would have the good will of the fans to root out the bad eggs in the squad and behind the scenes. Just can’t see it happening though. The fate of the last three managers shows that there’s something rotten at the heart of that club.

And long may that continue.

Last three is an understatement, the same shit has happened to almost every manager since the Russian bought the club.

True enough, but the last three have been done in by the players rather than the impatience of an oligarch. Their squad needs a cull.

Story in the Guardian suggests it’s ON (Sarri leaving for Juventus). It also says:

To replace Sarri, Chelsea will now look to former Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri, Nuno Espírito Santo of Wolves, Javi Gracía of Watford, Laurent Blanc, a free agent since being sacked by Paris Saint-Germain in 2016, and former player and all-time leading goalscorer Frank Lampard, who led Derby to the Championship play-offs in his first season in management.

Implosion has finally arrived and I don’t think RA gives a hoot any more.
Talisman who has kept them competitive for the last five seasons gone hopefully along with a manager who won them a trophy and got top four somehow.
And I don’t think that stadium will happen any time soon.
Happy days!

They'd be stupid not to go for Allegri, but if the transfer ban is upheld Allegri would be stupid to go there.

 

[Seafordian Spurs]

This lot are the original shithouse club.

No matter the fuckery they'll still end next season CL qualified and with a pot too.

Bastards.

If Lampard goes back to Chelsea then FLDC will have to be renamed.

Would be an excellent appointment for them IMO.
Not so good for us....he will sort them out.

Chelsea fans hate him though. It'd be delightful.

Chelsea fans.....says it all.
Excellent and sensible appointment.
He will reorganise the team for life without Hazard and more importantly 'maybe' Roman.

 

[Insomnia]

When are we going to appeal against our transfer ban out of interest?
