Tuchel to be appointed.

If he screws up before end season he will be sacked too. Its the Chelsea way. It also works

We still aren't beating trash teams. We bowed out of the FA cup with a whimper and are still barely in the top half mid season. Simple fact is its not likely to get any better under this manager. We always prefer to let things wither on the vine until the Crows come out to dine.....Then maybe we take action.

bit harsh on Saints plus as we know Arteta chucked the cup away by playing our Z team

Arsenal 3 - Chelsea 1
Brighton 0 - Arsenal 1
West Brom 0 - Arsenal 4
Arsenal 2 - Newcastle 0 (aet)
Arsenal 0 - Palace 0
Arsenal 3 - Newcastle 0

5 wins and a draw before the Southampton game

Arteta probably made a mistake at the weekend, we don't have the depth to make that many changes and get a result. If it doesn't pay off with a result tomorrow then it will definitely have been a mistake.
Our league position is because of our miserable pre-Christmas form which was indefensible and arguably Arteta should have been sacked for.
But things have been better since so I say give him till the end of the season. We don't have much to lose. We're clearly not going to go down, it's tight enough to suggest a European place isn't out of the question.
I'm not entirely convinced by Arteta but there have been a few promising signs of late so right now I don't see what harm it does to let this season play out.

Tell that to last season's FA Cup Final
Basically you're right, but it also works because they've been backed by a billionaire who has bought them success.

Unfortunately that was our B team and 1/3 of our A team

even though i know exactly how Chelsea works regarding its managers, i'm still surprised - given Lampard's status with the club, plus being essentially a rookie manager i genuinely thought they'd give him longer

i guess failing to get a tune out of the new players, particularly Werner, must be the key to it but still they shouldn't have been surprised
