Chelsea problem last problem was the management not the coach or the players. they had a nice coach that was doing well in Brighton, Potter Graham flopped because of poor management in the club. and if they did not amend their involvement in the club's decision, pochettino has the experience but if he is not given a free hand to operate he will still flop.

True, I saw something wrong with Chelsea's management because some of the coaches that Todd brought in mostly always failed, they even had good and expensive players but in the end, they always failed. I agree, maybe one of the factors that make coaches fail is because they don't get freedom, after all, coaches have experience and high-flying hours, so I think they already know what to do when the team experiences unwanted things. But it all comes back to management, if in conditions like this, management doesn't give freedom to the coach, then I think it will be very difficult for the coach to be able to restore the club's condition.

It is unfair to only blame Chelsea ex-coaches for failure in the club while disregarding the efforts they put in during off-match days. The responsibility of the coaches is to prepare the team, but the main job of performing on the field falls on the players during matches. Therefore, it is safe to say that both the coaches and the players should be held accountable for their poor performance.

The players showed recklessness and displayed a lack of proficiency in creating scoring opportunities, even when they did have chances, converting them into goals proved to be a challenge, and not just that, they lacked the strength and confidence to overcome the opposition's defenders, the defenders were also not fulfilling their duties effectively. I will rate Kepa before even rating some of the defenders because he does what an average keeper would have done throughout last season.

I wouldn't say the coaches were completely the cause. No doubt, they set the system while the players execute the game plan. But some went there with a poor system/ game plan. An example is Potter. the wrong system set up in chelsea wasn't completely his but he had the chance of ending things then he showed he's on weakness. The chemistry here is quite simple. Apart from Tuvhel, no later coach borough to chelsea could work on a system set by another coach. I blame Potter on a mare watching a highlight of the substitution he made which ruin many matches for chelsea. He made efforts but we're not good enough to transform the team.
