Ask anybody to name a top  team in Portugal they say either Benfica,Porto or Sporting(20 times winners),name a team from holland they say PSV(25 times winners),Ajax or Feyenoord,name a team in Italy they say Juve Inter(20 times winners)or ACMilan so as i was saying hardly surprising winners

I'd say Sporting was surprising given they finished 4th last season. Whilst the others may not be surprising the sides that won have hardly dominated in recent years. Serie A has had 4 different winners in the last 5 seasons (including Napoli's 1st title in 33 years) and Holland and Portugal have had 3 different Champions in the last 3 seasons. Compare that with France where you have a state owned club winning 6 of the last 7 and the last 3 in a row and England where a state owned club have won 6 of the last 7 as well with the last 4 in succession.

There’s speculation Kompany might be on his way to Germany. I hope he stays at the dingledome personally.

I don't. Any new manager there would want to change the squad and might not hit the running like he did.

There’s talk of Mark Robins going there if Kompany leaves. That would worry me more than Kompany staying.

Most of the squad would have to go then

A lot of them will have to go anyway. Have you seen the size of their squad ? 
 

It reminds me of the story Alan Ball told about the first time he took the City squad for training - “ When they all came running up the hill it was like that scene in the film Zulu ! “

Yes they have a big squad but what do you expect when Kompany has full control there

Exactly, that’s why I want him to stay.

My thinking is the other way, More turmoil of new manager, new players and squad overhaul would lead to more of mess there

Chelsea have binned Pochettino after one season; BBC: Pochettino leaves Chelsea

What a reward for someone who looked like he'd finally figured out what he wanted to do.

Boehly and his crew have spent enough money to fund the NHS for a good period of time and it has got them nothing. Now they'll have to pay out even more money in compensation to Pochettino and offer a lucrative contract to a new manager who will have the same task as his predecessor of to figure out what to with a bloated squad of expensive Panini sticker misfits, all being carried by Cole Palmer.

Its seems Bohely wanted Pochettino to stay on but his businesses partners wanted a change as long Winstanley and Stewart(both DoF). 

I would have stuck with him but I would go and appoint De Zebri if I was in charge at Chelsea

Basket case decision by a basket case club. Obviously they are Arsenal fans these owners because Pochettino had started to get some results and had them qualify for Europe, which was clearly too much success for their liking. 

Not that 6th was a huge achievement for what was spent mind.

Kompany to Brighton ?

My father in law will be having second thoughts about renewing his season ticket if that happens.

Yes, he's torn out most of what little hair he has left watching them this season.
