If Poch is going to take over, then he might as well take the last 4 games. Take a look at his squad ahead of the summer. Try and see if he can finish with a bit of momentum. Especially against Forest.

Why they got rid of Potter, only to replace him with Lampard for the remainder of the season is utterly baffling.

Is the Bollywood fella at this game now?  

Hey leave him alone! He's a Leicester fan (or was yesterday )

Fickle fans, leaving the stadium after 39 minutes.

 

At least we stay to the bitter end.

He's a fan of whoever will give him a free ticket by the looks of it.

Makes sense doesn't it, but that's not the plan apparently. Whether a battering tonight will change the plan, we can only hope, because right now, under Lampard, Chelsea are a team without any direction, motivation or desire. Notts Forest must be looking forward to getting into them!

Right, I don’t class myself as old, but who the hell is he? I’m not on any social media, so I’m going with that being a factor. 
 

Had to Google him….is he big on on the social fakery?

Think it's very fair to say that Lampard isn't an elite manager..

 

Surely Mourinho wouldn't think of returning?..

[Super_horns]

Pochettino will be running for the hills if he is watching this

No. He's a massive Bollywood icon.

Stop taking everything so seriously Stan. We're just having fun too.

He's a massive bollywood actor and has 43m followers on Instagram, but not that well known globally.

Friend of Stan I think 

[fox_favourite]

I think Lampard had to walk away, just to keep his dignity! This will ruin him if he wants to be a manager

Almost as baffling as why they got rid of Tuchel.

[goody2028]

Sterling would even looks shite in our team. Awful awful player in the Chelsea team

So you should be. 

[ClaphamFox]

In years to come, Chelsea’s clever wheeze of trying to get around FFP by stuffing their squad with ludicrously well-paid players on very long contracts who they can’t keep happy is going to be studied as an object lesson in how NOT to run a football club.

Apparently there were reasons but mark wouldn’t thank me for writing them here

Of course he had his flaws.

 

But it wasn't just about the football.

 

It was the philosophy, the humility, the humbleness of the man. Just an amazing human being who was someone to be proud of being associated with the club.

 

Sometimes things like that are more important 👍

well yes but that's a very different thing to "he just needed backing". I don't think you'll find a Leicester fan who'll ever have anything besides adoration for Claudio but if we'd have just backed him, we'd have gone down in 2017. Ranieri, devastating as it was, wasn't turning it around and neither was Bielsa

Heard some dodgy things about Tuchel to do with his personal life
