Football pundit Troy Deeney has told Chelsea that they should move to hire Andoni Iraola, although it could be too late.
It was announced earlier this week that Iraola is going to be leaving his role as head coach of Bournemouth at the end of the season and of course, this caused all sorts of speculation around where he might be going next and who might come in to replace him.

When talking about managers, Chelsea are always involved somewhere. I personally saw many Chelsea fans suggesting that the club should move Liam Rosenior out and bring Iraola in as his replacement this summer, and that is what Deeney is also suggesting.

Speaking on theFootball Exchange, Troy Deeney reckons that Andoni Iraola could be a good move for Chelsea to make:
“I think he’d be great for Chelsea, but I don’t think he’s going to go there. My mind seems to think Athletic Club or somewhere in Spain where he would go, but he would be fantastic for this Chelsea team.
“They wouldn’t want to do it, because he’s organised and structured, very much defensive-minded, I would say.”

Chelsea are suffering as a team, and individually too. The stats for the season show a big decline in Blues performing at their best. Moises Caicedo has dropped from 6th to 66th now in one key stat.
Chelsea are looking likely to fall into the “Ten Hag Trap” of keeping Liam Rosenior even after it’s clear he’s not up to it. They’ve been warned about that this week.
