Breh got sold an empty dream to go to Barcelona. He did play well on his loan move to Bayern tho

Treble winner with Bayern so not all that bad.
A loan move. Meaning Barca still owned him
True, but he still gets the winner’s medals IIRC.

You said leave on their own accord, now you saying he didnt get sacked. Sacked resigned whatever it wants to be spun as, bottom line was asked to leave, that isn't on own accord.
You’re right. My bigger point is that coaching is one of the positions where you can expect to get sacked as part of you’re career, unlike say a lawyer.
There are few coaches that get to walk away from the profession/retire when they choose. SAF is one of them.

Most of them dont know when to retire and when they do. They miss out need the fix and comeback. Sometimes being taken back behind the shed and put out of their misery is the only way to get the message thru to them.
See Guy Roux. Managed Auxerre for 44 years, retired and game back 2 years later and only lasted 4 games into a 2 year contract

Yup. Tactically he out of his depth, refused to shake things, subs were always like-for-like, etc...
And it's surprising to hear that he was cold with the players, given that a.) he was a player so recently and b.) during his playing days, he was well liked and respected by his peers.
Going by what Demba Ba said, We know why he's the obvious choice for Chelsea.
Tuchel was the obvious choice because hes available.
- Rangnick didn't want the temp role
- Allegri is on a sabbatical (I believe)
- Leipzig refused to let Nagelsmann discuss terms with Chelsea (and would've been disaster at Chelsea anyway, IMO)
- Sarri is, well, yeah...
He's not wrong.
On psycho/socio/political level, Trump, and Trumpism, is absolutely fascinating.
Conservatives =/= MAGA
Traditional Torys consider Trump and his ilk as a joke. If Lampard was allowed to vote in 2016, he probably would've went for Hilary as her world view is more akin to the UK Torys than anything else.
But he did get a Kepa replacement and defensive reinforcement.
Why? It's gotten them results in the past.
Why change what has worked for damn near 20 years?

Jesus Christ.Why does all this bad news surface when we are feeling good? Really weird shyt
Chelsea is only 5 points away from top 4. They have must really lost faith in Lampard to think that he can't get them there.
Lowkey, They should have contacted Brendan Rodgers I'm willing to put money he'd have left leicester and accept lmao

As per that Athletic article, his "treatment" of Kepa was one of the reasons he was sacked. They were pushed into Mendy because Kepa was averaging a howler per game. They wanted him to put an arm around Kepa
He got Thiago Silva on a free and Chilwell. Not exactly what he had in mind
Why not upgrade the positions he wanted instead of getting Havertz and Werner?
That's not to say he's not shyt... Just found the board ridiculous

You know why Micah would (might) do that though. It's the Bruno (Frank!) move. Keep smiling and keep them happy. Compare and contrast how
people feel about KG and Rantz. Or Keane and ... well ... actually no breh who spoke like Keane would be given that job
