Debates starts now!!!
| 𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄: Julian Nagelsmann
Julian Nagelsmann, favorite candidate to replace Graham Potter as new Chelsea head coach
◉ German coach was already mentioned yesterday during internal discussions — considered a ‘top talented coach’.
◉ Understand there have been already approaches to proceed with contacts on Nagelsmann and Chelsea side.
◉ No confirmation on Pochettino links at this stage.
Names linked with the Chelsea job this morning:
Julian Nagelsmann
Mauricio Pochettino
Marco Silva
Luis Enrique
Ruben Amorim
Roberto De Zerbi
Are we missing any?
“Graham Potter’s sacking is not surprising as the situation was very tense after Villa game. The Chelsea board decided about it in the night between Saturday and Sunday with communication to Potter around lunch time."
“They decided to change as they felt this group needed different energy; Potter was no longer considered the right man for the job. I think this is a decision we can understand as the feeling was never so positive on this appointment."
“Julian Nagelsmann is emerging as a strong candidate for the job and I think he’s an excellent, talented coach who could do great job in the Premier League. Chelsea like his vision, fresh ideas, they know the next coach has to be the right one for many years and they feel Julian could be perfect."
“Ruben Amorim and Luis Enrique are also appreciated; no contacts with Pochettino at this stage, but he was on the list last September before Chelsea appointed Potter.”
“I’m sure Graham Potter will bounce back. Potter is very good coach, but Chelsea is a project “under-construction” and so probably to arrive in September, many new players in January too… it created some confusion. But I’m sure Potter will do very well elsewhere in the future.”

The former Spanish manager Luis Enrique has flown into London to have talk with Chelsea as talkSPORT & Jim White report. What a manager this guy would be for the blues, he managed Barcelona and Spain and has great experience and is well like by all fans.
Chelsea have been underperforming for too long now and unfortunately for Graham Potter it didn’t work for the English man, but no doubt he’ll end up being a good manager elsewhere, just maybe a club like Chelsea came too early for him.
Chelsea are still in the Champions League, can they win the European trophy for a second time in three years? They have Real Madrid next, don’t rule them out!
