Michael Emenalo’s Jersey exit leaves Chelsea board It was easy to lapse into cynicism glancing at the statement, published on Chelsea’s website, that announced Michael Emenalo’s decision to stand down. The quotes
Cameron Meredith Youth jersey detailed regret, board and owner having attempted to persuade him to stay, with the penultimate paragraph drawn from Antonio Conte. “I am very sorry to see Michael leave,” said the Italian, who expressed thanks for all the support offered up by the technical director since arriving at the club. “I have enjoyed working with him very much.”
This club have always been prone to political intrigue and power grabs, so it would be easy to raise an eyebrow at the head coach’s eulogy. Conte, after

Recruitment came under the remit of Emenalo and the director, Marina Granovskaia. Now one of those figures has departed, his decision apparently taken when relationships were most strained. Instinct might suggest Conte’s position might, in fact,
Cameron Meredith Youth jersey be bolstered. Yet in the days that follow it may become clearer how Emenalo will actually be missed, in boardroom and dugout alike. Granovskaia has taken on his day-to-day duties until a replacement is found, with figures such as Eddie Newton, the loan technical coach, and Scott McLachlan, head of international scouting, reporting directly to her while a potentially busy January window edges ever closer. The workload is onerous. Conte, meanwhile, will hardly be able to persuade Roman Abramovich to appoint one of his own associates as a replacement and, in many ways, he would look to have lost an ally in Emenalo. There may have been flashpoints over the summer but, despite the head coach blanking his technical director on the touchline on Sunday as he departed the pitch still
Cameron Meredith Jersey pumped up and punching the air in triumph, the tension had apparently eased in that relationship. Emenalo had been generally supportive as the frustration simmered behind the scenes over a title defence Conte has regularly described as in a state of “emergency”. The 52-year-old clearly offered some stability over a decade where upheaval has been common but he also provided an element of calm in an emotive boardroom. When others in the hierarchy might be railing – say, perhaps, when it comes to a manager under pressure – he would be the one arguing for patience, for a pause for breath, for simple common sense. He was also a lightning rod. A disgruntled support poured their scorn on him over that interview and the show of disrespect for Mourinho at a time when their own frustrations were being taken

They had been just as aghast when he replaced Ray Wilkins as an assistant under Carlo Ancelotti back in the Italian’s “difficult moment” in the autumn of 2010, pointing to Emenalo’s patchy and unspectacular coaching career. When transfers failed to materialise, Lukaku joined Manchester United or Ross Barkley and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain had second thoughts, it was invariably Emenalo who bore the brunt. He may have played a part in those failures, or the purchase of other players who have not made the grade, but he invariably drew the bulk of the criticism. Now the board’s safety net has gone.
