This is The Guardian.

Hello and welcome to Guardian Football Weekly, a tough night for the best league in the world,

so thank you to Chelsea and to Enzo Moreska for giving us some content.

Chelsea sack their manager, good to get something so inevitable done at the start of the year. A move that appears to be what everybody wanted. Moreska said he was having a terrible time. Then he said he'd been talking to other people, all the while getting annoyed with the medical staff for telling him who to pick and how long for. One win in seven on the pitch, sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe, you know the rest,

and Chelsea are Chelsea, so it was never going to work. Liam Rossini, favourite for the job, how will Blue Co-owned Chelsea possibly price him away from Blue Co-owned Strasbourg? Also today, Brentford, Nill, Tottenham Hotsburgh, Nill, Liverpool, Nell, Leeds United Nill, Sunderland nil, Manchester City, Nill. Still a bit to talk about

Sunderland's unbeaten home record, Thomas Frank, getting a wonderful evasion from everyone except the Spurs fans. What a shame, Pallison Fulham scored, and we didn't get a clean sweep. Then to Afcon, where Gabon have been suspended by Gabon, while the last 16 begins tomorrow. And in the EFL, Cambridge are up to fifth.

We'll do all that, plus your questions,

and that's today's Guardian Football Weekly.

On the panel today from the racing post, Mark Langdon, welcome Mark.

Hi, Max.

Hello, Lucy Ward.

Hi, Max.

And good morning, Lars Sivertson. Good morning, Max. Alice says, have. Hi, Max. And good morning, Lars Iverton.

Good morning, Max.

Alice says, have there ever been more panellists than goals before? It's a great question. Well, look, we will get to last night's football in a second. But let's do Enzo Moreska leaving Chelsea then. Zavar, says, feel free to cut paste the analysis of Moreska's firing by Chelsea from any one of the last 15 times or so. Manager thinks they're in charge, finds out they aren't tail as old as time at the bridge. So Chelsea said one of those statements that they always make. It's Chelsea Football Club and head coach Enzo Moreska of parted company during his time

at the club. Enzo led the team to success in the UA for Conference League and the FIFA Club World Cup. Those achievements will remain an important part of the club's recent history and we thank him for his contributions to the club with key objectives still to play for across four competitions, including qualification for Champions League football. Enzo and the club believe a change gives the team the best chance of getting the season back on track.

We wish in Enzo and the club, believe a change gives the team the best chance of getting the season

back on track we wish in Enzo well for the future.

I mean, it appears, Mark, that Enzo wanted to leave and Chelsea wanted him to leave.

And so that's fine.

It's fine for everyone.

Well, yeah.
