I do get the feeling they'll be less players bothered by this than those indifferent or even glad about it.

Yeah went so badly for Martin O'Neill and Wes Morgan

Wonder if Enzo can tell the difference these days

Once everyone at your club realises what Guillem's role is for Enzo, what on earth does that do to help him in his role? Everyone on here couldn't stand hearing from him. I see Wolves fans felt exactly the same about him when he did it for their former manager. From Guillem's side he seems to do alright out of it. He gets access to great items like Harry Winks left boot to raffle off at an overpriced 3 course dinner. But what Enzo gets out of it really does baffle me.

The timing is the only issue to me. But not like he's gone midway through the season. Weighing it all up, I never liked his football and the stubbornness at the end was of levels I have never seen from a football manager. It very nearly cost us, and I'm not sure how he'd be viewed now if he'd failed to get the most expensive squad in championship history up. I think he is going to get a very big shock at Chelsea. Once things start going sour and the directors are dictating to him how to play, he won't be there long.

If anyone says Faes is paid too much then just show them the photos of the shit the clubs made him model in the last 2 years. He's earned every penny if you ask me.

An extensive search was made for him? Did he go missing?

Okay saying it's bullshit full stop is wrong. I don't think for what you gain you don't massively lose in other areas. That's why I don't think it's an amazing philosophy. Not to mention the unwillingness to change. It was so amateur at times it was unbelievable. The Millwall and Plymouth games were the absolute worst. It was also unbareable to watch a lot of the time. The first 10-12 games of the season we won through individual brilliance. We did admittedly find a period where we started to outplay teams but how many times did we hear we'd find another gear? People were saying that because the elephant in the room was this is absolutely boring to watch. A bit like how people have dared to start saying that about Man City now. The last 10 games exposed everything about why it isn't a bad thing he's left us. We did get over the line and I'm thankful to everyone involved for that but I'm not going to ignore the massive shortcomings.

You make a good point about the inverted right back. It's yet another example of why the bullshit philosophy don't work. It was supposed to give more protection to us in the transition. It made it so easy for the likes of even Millwall and Plymouth to defend against the Wingers too because there was no overlapping wing back. Give me a Klopp type gegenpress anyday. Even he started to try the inverted bullshit in the end to accommodate TAA's lack of defensive ability and the Liverpool fans were slating it.

What Cooper did at Forest in that was a better achievement than anyone we have been linked with (realistically) has achieved. I don't think people realise how good that was. To judge him by what he had to put up with from their owner in the Premier League seasons is mad. Kept them up despite it and since he left Nuno managed about 3 points more over the same amount of games. There is no one on here that despises Forest more than I do but it's not like we haven't had ex Forest come here and become legends. Not to mention his success at u17s England level probably eclipses what most have done too. I'm not quite sure where this is coming from really.

Think the answer to that is in the bell end part

I'd like to think Rudkin isn't in charge of everything down to what Tea bags they have in the canteen.

It is still in most scenarios a no lose situation for Enzo in that he can go through all the usual Chelsea problems and be sacked - and still have his "reputation" intact. I feel sorry for him though if he hasn't worked out they've specifically targeted a Championship manager because they think managers on Poch's level have too much of a say. He's going to get a big shock. I have absolutely no doubt we will be getting Guillem making every accusations about the Chelsea hierarchy in next year or so on Sky sports. I really hope we never see that patronising, arrogant clown ever again.

Not saying it directly about this rule, but that extra 8+ teams haven't proved to be any better when they've voted against things like better payments to the pyramid.

I think part of their appeal was pointing out that you get 10 points for administration. It's mad that they even imposed that in the first place really.

Can't wait. More wine?

I really hope this don't make us break Derby's record

There's nothing more Foxestalk than moaning about managers that wouldn't look at us twice. It's like fat bald men in the pub saying wuddya about some 21 year old bar maid.

I know Top has next to no football knowledge and just thinks he wants Man City type football, but even he can't have watched games last season and want to continue in that same style.

And another example of why giving a manager more say just because we have a poor Director of Football isn't the answer.

Bet Sensi is glad he was messed around for 24 hours in Leicester rather than signing and Enzo leaving at the first chance.

Faes gets way too much of a hard time in here. This is an unpopular opinion but I think he's gonna be one of our best players this season. If anyone comes at me then I hope you know I own a plot of land in Rutland. I don't take shit okay?

If Enzo wants the job and has told Chelsea that, then what good does it do him telling a Journalist to tell everyone that?

Farke off Raj!
