Ok so the owners are still taking this joke into a third day I see. Great joke guys, my sides are splitting. Making us actually think you sacked a respected manager when things were looking good and very optimistic only to bring in a relative unknown rookie manager with zero PL experience.

Hilarious guys, people actually falling for this so really well done for keeping this running for three days. Time to bring Poch back into the room now so we can all have a good laugh, pat each other on the backs and have a few drinks. Such a great sense of humour you old scallywag owners have

Kieran McKenna has given #Chelsea the green light to step up their approach. He is keen on the job. Ipswich Town are thought to be able to command compensation north of £4M for McKenna.

Waiting for Fabrizio to tell us that our owners are 'in love' with McKenna and that he's seen as 'the ideal project manager'

Yep and that he was actually originally their preferred choice before appointing Poch but was unavailable at the time

Kompany replacing Tuchel at Bayern is a weird one. Can't think of another instance where a manager has been relegated but then immediately been given one of the biggest jobs in football.

Leicester manager Enzo Maresca has reportedly rejected the opportunity to take over at La Liga outfit Sevilla,according to reports.

Maresca is one of several candidates in the race to take over at Chelsea, and his ambition is to remain in the Premier League.

It's a shame we're not still in the Roman era as we'd probably be looking to bring in a really top class manager like Simone Inzaghi. Not a rookie yes man who will lick the owner's backsides.

Kieran McKenna is open to taking over as Man United boss should Erik ten Hag leave. #Chelsea have already held discussions with McKenna's representatives but he is reluctant to rush into a decision amid the possibility of a managerial change at United, who are believed to be his ideal destination.

Out of those 3 I hope it's Frank but if the 4th choice is Rubin Amorim I really hope we get him.

A high-profile mystery name is also under consideration for the #Chelsea job.

Must be De Zerbi or Amorim.

That shortlist is so depressing, would any of you be excited by any of them appointments?

Bologna have announced Motta's leaving, hot property in Italy, thought to be off to Juve. I wonder if he might be on Chelsea's radar too though.
