They've got the freedom of the 18-yard box.

Have we had a touch of the ball?

THE CHAAAAMPIONS!!

He didn't build them.

If Potter fails at Chelsea, he'll get the Everton job afterwards.

Pochettino's stock has waned recently. He didn't have a great last year or two at 'Spurs, and his spell at PSG was poor. He can work with youngsters, but can he work with big names? Tottenham didn't have much competition when he was in charge - Leicester won the league! Crucially, can Pochettino build a culture? Build the club? That's what Boehly wants now.

Where's @ChelseaBoy when you need him?!

Werner in tears...

Potter to Chelsea? Ange to Brighton?

Yes, but with those owners...

It seems Boehly wants someone that can transform the club culture root and branch.

It's maybe an opportunity for Potter to make a step up, but it's not the best time or club with which to do it.

I'd say Inzaghi at Inter is on a shoogly, but they do have Bayern so it's not a disaster if they don't pick up anything.

I wonder if Leipzig will go for Rose?

GvB... ?

Pochettino up next, perhaps?

Tuchel given his jotters! Does he fancy a job at Ibrox... ?

Yilmaz can play in place of Kent, which probably suits his game - he's very offensive. Who's the other?

I'd like to see a Nagelsmann-esque 3-5-2: McLaughlin Sands - Goldson - King Lundstram Tavernier - Tillman - Lowry - Kent Morelos - Colak It won't happen, though, because GvB is not that type of manager: he doesn't know how to implement it. It'll continue to be the 4-2-3-1 / 4-3-3. It'll continue to be very organised and possession-based. Not bad in itself, but you need a way of penetrating deep blocks. Our transition play is quite good, but that doesn't work against the domestic diddies. There have definitely been improvements in the build-up, but the play in the final third is non-existent: It's like GvB just leaves it to a player's individual quality to unlock defences. There's no cohesive game-plan in place, a la Them.

Yeah, we're getting pumped...

I thought that was obvious? I never wanted GvB in the first place.

Depends on the manager, and the philosophy of the club. I think we do have the manager for it, but we're still developing the club philosophy. The B-team being the key-stone of that.

I think Lovelace should be around the first-team more. He's doing well for the B-team (5 goals in 8 apps; 2 assists).
