21st Century Fox Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Feel like Chelsea will go for someone already in a job. Boehly seems to like swinging his financial wang around to make a bit of a statement.

He'll be in with an 'outside' shot and his agent will be working overtime to generate a buzz. I can see it on a caretaker basis - remember he's pretty good at coming in and improving what's already there. If we'd sacked him and paid him off at the end of last season, or before the season as he clearly wanted, then he might be well placed to get that job now on a caretaker basis at least. Pochettino is available though.
Frost Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 (edited) Zero chance Chelsea are interested in Rodgers; they will probably go for Potter. Zidane is waiting for the France job as it'll be available after the WC, no matter how well they do. Edited 7 September 2022 by Frost
Walshie is God Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Im assuming with the ultra slim chance that Chelsea might want rodgers means we now wont sack him until that post is filled
David Hankey Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Who would have thought Tuchel would get dismissed before Rodgers? 2
westernpark Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 If Abramovich was still the owner, there would be a possibility of him moving there. They had an excellent personal relationship, he used to give his son 1-1 football coaching.
Popular Post dylanlegend Posted 7 September 2022 Popular Post Posted 7 September 2022 I bet Rodgers is kicking himself. Instead of throwing his dummies out the pram making stupid decisions to try and get sacked maybe if we’ve have had a respectable start to the season Chelsea May have considered Rodgers 8

Scotch Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 I bet you the moment Rodgers heard the news about Tuchel, he turned the ringtone up on his phone... 4
coolhandfox Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Whilst I don't think it will happen. Rodgers to Chelsea isn't as far-fetched as some would think. His and the general media narrative is around little Leicester being the problem not him. Anyone realistically touting Potter and dismissing Rodgers for the job is not taking in the wider context, and only focusing on the last 12 months. 1 1
shiv Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Potter to Chelsea and Rodgers to Brighton would be lovely.

taupe Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 I think Rodgers should resign immediately and get his CV in at Chelsea toot sweet. It's his ideal job. I don't want us to hold him back. 2
leicesterseddon Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 7 minutes ago, HankMarvin said: Shows what a good job he does with the media to even be linked to the Chelsea job whilst you’re bottom and currently a massive failure 100% this. It also shows that the football punditocracy judges managers according to a facile “how much money have they had” metric. There is also the point that owners rarely comment publicly, whilst players are media-trained perfectly to say nothing at all in pre-or post match interviews. The manager has quite an advantage when it comes to determining the media narrative around their own performance. 1
Le Renard Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Rodgers is so smarmy he's probably already told the American owners they are wonderful human beings, they are so humble and he really loves what they have done at Chelsea. 1

foxes_rule1978 Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Probably not been sacked because Chelsea have already contacted us about his availability. Top kept his cool and didn’t laugh during the call, but had a party once he put the phone down 1
Popular Post filbertway Posted 7 September 2022 Popular Post Posted 7 September 2022 Chelsea steal Kante for less than we want. They make up for it by signing Drinkwater for waaaay more than he's worth. Chelsea steal Fofana for less than we want They make up for it by taking our destructive manager! You know it's the right thing to do 3 3
Aleksz Posted 7 September 2022 Posted 7 September 2022 Don’t think Rodgers going there is as unrealistic as some make out. It might have gone totally stale here but his record still speaks for itself. He’s comfortably 3rd or 4th favourite and the bookies initial betting reflects that.

I know it's tempting to suggest all of the big six are run by idiots and that Chelsea don't know what they're doing but they're not hiring a guy that's won four league games this calendar year or whatever it is. I also doubt they're that impressed by two fifth place finishes given our situation. The media might see Rodgers differently to us but if Chelsea have a lick of sense they won't be just recruiting their next manager on tabloid reputation. I don't think they'll go near Potter either but I do think they'd recognise that at very least Potter's career is trending in a better direction.
