A dip down the order far worse than our "stadium era" has always looked odds on for them, I'd actually credit them for getting along this far.
They should survive and return to their familiar status as a halfway dangerous midtable club with a laughable degree of self-importance, but key to that will be recruiting a "process" manager who can recruit and train for what's going to become the Premier League's midtable footballing norm: high athleticism, pressing all day, and brute force skulduggery up front.
Potter's perfect for them but has refused them before because he won't work with Levy. Ending the Levy era would be a logical move, obviously Conte is weasel scum but Levy looks like a dinosaur for throwing money after him.
