Feels like we are doomed next season regardless whether he stayed or not. Please don't replace him with Frank Lampard!

[Pita]

Lampard would be a disaster

Cheers for getting us up and enjoy the payoff next year

10 threads on this already deleted tonight.

 

If it's not confirmed by Morrison's night shift manager at Chelsea Village Express, then there shouldn't be a thread.

Apologies if I've got it wrong but aren't Sky Sports as reputable as necessary?

[WigstonWanderer]

I thank him for our promotion and wish him well in his career. With the resources he’ll have available at Chelsea he may even be able to make his style of football work in the Premier League, as long as he develops more flexibility and doesn’t have too much interference from the owners.

 

I can’t imagine his style would have worked for us in the PL - champagne football with brown ale players, so think this is the best outcome. Just hope the powers that be can find a suitably pragmatic replacement that can keep us up in the season ahead.

Not announced by either team and Telegraph are saying it will be tomorrow. You've had a case of Premature Exposition here OP!

Mods, take him away!

...so all of a sudden Sky are more reputable than Morrison's night staff? Have a word mate.

Sign KDH on a 10 year next. Dare ya!

I'm only thinking in terms of the points deduction and no money to spend, if rumours are to be believed anyway. Would need a miracle to stay up.

I've tried Google Translate and it hasn't got a clue either.

[Foxmeister]

I suspect that contact is going to prove to be 4 years and 9 months too long.

We’re the victims of his success. 

[Koke]

With this and also Kompany going to Bayern, maybe there's a shortage of elite managers today. Nobody wants Conte, Mourinho, Allegri etc with their terrorist football so big clubs are going for managers with limited experience and limited success.

Just seen this proudly shared on Facebook.  It's the volume button blocking some of text that does it for me .😅

[Scotch]

A bit of premature Maresculation?!

Conte is apparently going to Napoli.

All the nonsense in the media about 5 years being too long. The length of the contract is irrelevant unless you know if there are pre written severance/break clauses in it 

 

it’s just a means of them saying that this is our man for the long term and we’re invested in the project - long term. 

 

If the team don’t  perform over the next twelve months he’ll be out of there.

Indeed, it might well have a 12 month termination clause in it.  Meanwhile.... Alan Pardew's eight-year Newcastle deal ends... what has happened since he signed it? - BBC Sport
