Webber reached the decision on Thursday - but the final decision was made...

By the whole board YESTERDAY MORNING. Hence Delia and Michael's funereal faces.

None of the players or staff knew until after the game: after the players had boarded the team bus, in fact. When Webber entered the changing room and let Farke and his staff know their fate.

Webber's press conference after Chelsea was designed to ask Farke the question: can you and the players respond to this? Meaning Leeds was decisive, but Chelsea had set things in motion.

Cantwell lost his place in the first team dressing room altogether last week. He'll be getting it back this week.

Farke was given an emotional send-off by the whole squad at Colney last night. His compo will cost the club upwards of a million quid.

Norwich know who they want and he should be appointed in the next few days. Certainly well before the Southampton game.

This is all per Michael Bailey in The Athletic.
