    Chelski fans having a meltdown

    #sackpotter trending on the twitterverse, reading some of the comments from their fans is absolute gold.

    I always thought the Chelski fans were a decent lot but the mask has slipped and they are just as entitled as the Manure lot.

    1 fan messaging Todd Bohely telling him to sack Potter and Mount, another saying they should hire Tuchel

    all of them demanding Potter to be sacked.

    6 months ago, they were all spewing the narrative that its a long term project and taking it steady and not making rash decisions.

    Fast forward 6 months, they have spent 600m+ and want the manager out PLUS Chelsea are asking the PL to be exempt from FFP rules because they were sanctioned under Roman and were not allowed to receive money into the club!!!

    Where do they get the stones??!! The owners knew the score when they bought the club.

    I genuinely think this American lot still have 1 eye on the European super league being formed in the coming months then FFP wont matter

    Make no mistake, the American owners are 100% focused on taking the clubs into a Super League.

    It's NOT A EUROPEAN SUPER LEAGUE it is way way worse. A Euro Super League would mean playing in Europe. Look at the proposal no where does it say 'European' the Super League intended to play games all over the world. Liverpool v Real Madrid in Beijing, Barcelona v Juve in Miami etc.

    The game will become entertainment not a sport like all garbage U.S. sports. No relegation just a pantomime in which the Ref's are bought off and Juve, Real, Barca & Newton Heath rotate as 'Super Bowl' winners / World Champions of soccer ( I just puked in my mouth.)

    I'm pleased to see the government are bringing in legislation to make it illegal English teams to play in leagues outside of England. One good thing this incompetent clowns will pass.

    Chelsea under Roman distorted the transfer market to buy their way to the EPL title in those early years.

    Exemption for FFP is hilarious. Not gonna happen. It if does I can see 14 + EPL clubs lodging official complaints/calling Nick DiMarco up feting him involved in suing the bejesus out of them and the EPL.

    Potter is on a hiding to nothing, the rumours of Tuchel getting sacked because he refused to have players forced upon him look ever more likely. Their owners playing football manager

    Aye - huge pressure and a near impossible job for Potter. Another owner who doesn’t understand anything about the game.

    I understand why Potter took the job. The guy has done a great job at Brighton and wanted to test himself at the top level.

    Any quality young ambitious manager will want that. Contrast that with Eddie coming to us. It's a great fit. We have an unlimited ceiling but we have a lot of growing to do. Howe's never gonna be under the pressure Potter is stepping into a managerial job held by people like Tuchell and by elites like Mourinho.

    From the clubs point of view I understand why they went for Potter. For all the reasons he took the job, class young ambitious manager.

    To say that the manager is wrong, these days in the top teams they are coaches. However that's not to say they do not have any involvement in player recruitment. Of courses they do, their professional input is always required.

    However name one of those elite young players who are ALL on their way to being WORLD CLASS and tell me which one Potter wouldn't say 'Yeah, he's awesome, Sign him!'

    They made moves to recruit Europe's / South American's best young talent. Any other club' fans would be dancing in the streets.

    Imagine if we'd signed all of them? Externally we'd be hammered worse than Chelsea are getting it however we'd all be absolutely buzzzzzing!
