6 year contract for Rosenior at Chelsea.

Kerching!!!

I suppose the big question is will they pay up his contract in full when they sack him in 18 months or just keep him on the payroll for the full 6 years.

I have no idea but the thought of Chelsea offering any manager a 6 year contract is bonkers. The last Chelsea manager to last 4 years was John Neal in the early 80s.

Whore Jackie Xabi Alonso gone.


All hail the great Alvaro….

Now let’s have £10 on Slot getting his marching orders shortly then, esp. if the scousers make a right mess against Barnsley later.

Being suggested in Spain that Alonso resigned, and it had taken the RM board by surprise.

Been rumours in the media for the last week that Luis Enrique has rejected the offer of a contract extension at PSG and is instead keen to move on this summer.

would be maybe the most in demand manager if he becomes available I would think.

If he is going to move there’ll be nearly every top side in the PL after him. Like everyone else though I suspect he’ll end up at Real Madrid :roll:

What’s wrong with adding a bit of spice to the el Classico?

It would be like Figo going back to manage Barcelona.

Surely City is the most obvious destination.

keep hearing just how intelligent and what a deep thinker Liam Rosenior is. I honestly am wondering if the football media have decided this on the basis that he wears glasses :lol:
