Welp, queue up another managerial search for my Blues 🫠⏳

Going to be same song and dance, PR spin, and rotating door of managers until ownership gets rid of the Brighton Brothers as co-sporting directors. I don’t particularly love Maresca but most managers will find it hard to operate within the system that they want.. aka, a “yes man”.

Bring back Jose.
 
Only two points from those two games but Reece has been a boss when he’s moved into a full time midfield role. Not only should he be the starting RB for England this upcoming World Cup but can also be a Swiss Army knife for Tuchel if needed. Has loads of experience at RB/RWB, played a good bit at RCB under Tuchel and Potter some too, but also now can move into an #8 role if needed. Really hope he can stay healthy.

 
That hire doesn't move the needle for me. I'm sure he'll be out in 15-18 months though.
From a footballing perspective, I have no idea just how good or not good he is. It just doesn’t move the needle for me much either.

I will just say that so many managers get chewed up and spit out by the press in Football, especially in England, but he seems like an intelligent guy who knows what to expect because he has been on both the press side and the manager side. He carries himself really well and I really like the way he treated the last week so honestly but also professionally. So if he fails and only makes it 1 or 2 years, I feel pretty confident it won’t be because he can’t handle the pressure or the media. It always comes back around to the tactics and whether he can handle the actual footballing side.
