Should Chelsea’s Loss to Wolves Be the End of Ancelotti?

With the 1-0 loss to Wolves just a few moments ago, Carlo Ancelotti’s job  is surely in serious doubt. The loss is certainly the nadir of a disastrous run of form that began months ago. If I’m realistic, at this point, the title is now out of our reach and a Top 4 spot is looking increasingly unlikely.

So should Carlo be given the sack? Before the match against Wolves I would have said no. But after the away loss to the bottom team on the league, my attitude has certainly changed. Now, I absolutely respect Carlo as a manager, but at this moment he seems to be doing nothing worth keeping his job. The side that played today was reminiscent of Ancelotti’s Milan side near the end of his tenure there. They were slow, unpassionate, and looked clueless in the final third. Wolves were everything that Chelsea should have been: strong, hardworking, and resilient. Given all this, I would say that Carlo should be given the sack. However, that would leave Chelsea with some very worrying questions.

If Carlo is sacked who can replace him? Sadly, I can’t think of a single quality manager that can replace him. We need a manager that can give the squad a huge reshuffle, phasing out players and bringing in quality new ones. We’ll see what happens in the net few days regarding Ancelotti…
