#managerial-appointments

It's one of the biggest jobs in football, a club that has -- as their supporters sing at every game -- won it all, but to be head coach at Chelsea, top-level experience and a proven track record are not required, so don't expect an elite managerial name to replace Enzo Maresca. If you think that makes no sense -- a view taken by many confused Chelsea fans right now -- it is the reality of the "new" Chelsea under the control of Todd Boehly

I'm surprised, because I think given where he was at Luton in terms of his stock, I think that was probably, with respect, as good as he could have hoped for, the Middlesbrough job. It's a really big job. He's turned the support around from being a little bit in the doldrums to feeling really positive. So I am surprised from that respect, because I think the opportunity to take Middlesbrough back into the Premier League would be amazing for him.
