Chelsea’s “structure” to blame for another failed season

“I blame the structure for this. Makes no bones about that. They screwed up this season,” presenter Nick Verlaney said.

“The structure is wrong, the philosophy is wrong, and the playing personnel isn’t correct. Those things can’t go against you,” he concluded.

We agree on all those counts, really. Things have gone wrong all the way down the chain, but you can’t really look beyond the top as the source of the problems. That’s why changing the manager every season is having no effect on our progress. Bigger changes need to be made.
