How will everyone feel when Chelsea finish above us next season, I'm already infuriated, not sure how I'll feel when that happens and it's inevitable if we stick with Slot.
16 May 2026 21:42:23
I will feel shocked to my core if Chelsea finish above Liverpool.
If we appoint Iraola, I think many people will be pleasantly surprised by how good Iraola is compared to Alonso. Personal opinion, but I think he's the best option for us.

Ron, I think you'll be unpleasantly surprised what a turnaround Chelsea will do under Xabi. They've got a young squad, some excellent talent, the club's a bit of a shambles, but that's irrespective of what's happening on the pitch. Look what Klopp did for us, we didn't have half the squad Chelsea do now when Klopp came on board.
16 May 2026 21:55:36
I agree, from the two, I feel he gets the players that will go through walls for him.
16 May 2026 21:57:46
Good chance Alonso goes very well next year. They'll be like Utd this year with one game a week.
16 May 2026 21:58:42
I prefer Hoeness if I'm honest, plays a lot like Klopp style, which is what we are crying out for.
16 May 2026 22:03:28
I would have liked Alonso, but I'm with you, Ron Iraola is an ideal fit.
16 May 2026 22:23:07
I'm with Ron, I never wanted Alonso yet. Anyway take the red specs off, Luis Enrique number 1 for me.
16 May 2026 22:47:41
With regards to Hoeness, I believe his English needs a lot of work, which isn't ideal for managing in the Premier League.
16 May 2026 23:00:24
Chelsea squad you say, Chewy?
An average keeper, a few decent defenders, very average wingers, and still no goal scorer? Yeah they have 2 great midfielders etc but Alonso will have his work cut out, that's for sure.
16 May 2026 23:05:31
By letting Alonso go to Chelsea, not only have we failed to strengthen our team, we've allowed a competitor to strengthen.
I just hope FSG have something in mind, and not allowing Slot to stay.
16 May 2026 23:13:01
Can people tell me how Ireola is the perfect fit? One terrific season and other good ones. Never managed a top club and not won a thing. I'll take anyone over Slot currently, but I'm not convinced he'll be bringing us the title. Hopefully I'm wrong.
17 May 2026 00:30:45
Ireola seems good. I like the man. But, like nearly every manager, there's questions. His team run relentlessly for him, I'm told. Would they be able to do the same twice a week over a 60 game season, as he's never managed a European campaign. Maybe they would, but these are the questions.
17 May 2026 06:53:20
Well Florian, his team have played 38 games this season, 2 to go, and they seem to be getting stronger, not running out of gas.
I'd prefer 40 games heavy metal football and getting stronger, to 60 games of Slot-ball. But each to his own.
17 May 2026 10:54:04
It's not about or referring it to Slot. It's about it being sustainable for us, not Bournemouth.
