GeordieDazzler Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 The Athletic coverage of the Amorim and Maresca sackings has been quite telling. Both podcasts they’ve done on it them they basically haven’t criticised the people running the clubs in any meaningful way. Has felt very much like client journalism. No wonder Ornstien always gets the scoops. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maresca didnt have much experience. As long as they finish 5th thatll be a good job from him in their eyes. Cannot see them challenging any way in for the title with this approach though.

Lush Vlad Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Someone described Rosenior as being very Diary of a CEO or a guest of the show. Heard some clips of him this morning and he does sound very much like someone Jake Humphrey wants on the his High Performance show. All sounded very LinkedIn, full of buzz words, management speak and just cringe as fuck. All that said. The comments around what he had done from pundits, journos and players that he had coached all sounded really promising. I hope it fails, either way. Because it's Chelsea and the whole Blueco thing and multi-club setups in general are a disgrace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 It’ll fail, don’t worry about that. Once you have football executives with very poor understanding of the game taking on the level of control that Chelsea have there is no way to be a success on the pitch. They may remain a success financially for their owner and board. However, they will fail continuously on the pitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Still not sure where all the nice, charismatic guy stuff comes from with Amorim. Find him anything but. Like I mentioned the other day, it seems like he has been daring them to sack him for a while. Hasn't he regularly thrown his players under the bus, too? The way he always made out like he needed players for his system, putting them in a position to fail and didn't he also say something like it was the worst Manchester United ever/in recent history? Or words to that effect. Mental appointment the more you look at it. Didn't Liverpool get put off him because he was so wedded to his system and his system only? Did Man U think they'd be able to get him to change or did they think it would be successful with what they had? It was basically a crock of shite for months on end, he gets backed but they don't fundamentally get loads better and then he goes full nuclear after the Leeds game. Shame he's gone. As I don't think he would have consistently found success with a system that was so easy to create chances against. I think with the squad they have and a better manager. They will do well.

Apart from maybe true dinosaurs like Allardyce, Brewcie, Pulis etc. Even listening to it on the dog walk this morning. I had a wry smile, as some of it did sound a bit like Howe's terminology. But it all seemed very forced and unnatural with Rosenior. Like he was coached to speak like that or it was a conscious decision to start speaking this way.

The thing we have to be thankful for as an external party is that the owners aren’t using it for footballing gain, they’re using it for their own financial gain. It’s awful for Strasbourg fans and I think Chelsea fans are probably coming round to the reality of how awful it is for them too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
