It's just the case of big egos. Some people here think that everything their small brain cells generate turn into gold, hardly works that way. There is absolutely no guarantee that the next manager will be more successful that Carlo, and frankly it is hard to better him after his feats. Sincerely hope the board sees it this way and actually has a long term vision.

Seems like he is blessed with a fast metabolism otherwise he wouldn't be there to eat his 25k burger In all my near 20yrs ive eaten like 5 burgers, i hate fast food but i must say, the smell near McDonalds etc is quite nice tho its just a trick to get you interested. Lifting weights, jogging for cardio and eating proper food ftw

Nicely put, agree with youalthough I'm a big fan of Agureo, hope we will sign him

All the best bud, stay positive and keep looking forward bcs that's the way you'll succeed in life

And because they are British it doesen't make them better than Carlo. Ancelotti has silverware to back him up..

Love it! The Blue - Black - White are national flag colours of Estonia so i find this kit brilliant

Voting for LDN, his posting ratio speaks for itself and all in all seems a great person to talk to

Especially if Wigan gets relegated Around £5-6 mil then

I'm really excited about the prospect of N'Zogbia, dont know why, seems so right

It seems you don't really even consider understanding other people's opinions, which is fine by me but be careful what you wish for - grass always seems greener on the other side of the fence, but it rarely really is. In the end of the day i want the club to do well, not the players, not the manager.

1) I left out departure of Wilkins, you can add that to your list 2)I agree, injuries are part of footie but they do affect the team, right? Especially if influential team players get sidelined. 3) Valid point, but in order to buy, you need funds, thats for one. Secondly, letting go Cole, Ballack, Deco, Belletti takes its toll - they are high calibre players that are hard to replace.

If this doesn't explain it, i dont know what will

A bit hypocrite isn't it, mate? You're the one who brought up the Wenger topic In the end of the day, we cant go on cyclying managers like socks, it doesen't work like that. There is a reason why Man Utd always are a threat to be reckoned with, it's their stability which SAF has brought with his reign.Keeping a manager might not bring us luck right away but I've got time, have you?

Who needs Kaka when we have Ivan who can celebrate as good? Good read

You say Wenger, I say Ferguson..and if by being compatible you mean having to win a trophie every single year then you are spoilt. Although no disrespect to the Pensioners, but we are not in form Barcelona who can do that. Atm this is nothing like Scolari case, Scolari was utterly bad, lost the backing of players - off he went. Carlo still has backing of the players, majority of the fans and has silverware to prove his compatibilty.

I had the same thought a few days ago... hope he's okey

I respect your opinion but i strongly disagree. This is about something more than just keeping a manager for the sake of stability, this is about finally developing a unit, a team that has played together longer than a year.. CA might have made a few tactical blunders but you are quick to forget that he has been behind much more positive than negative, much has happened that has made our form dip and i blame those factors not Ancelotti. Drogba's malaria, numerous of injuries for key players, Carlo's father's death, departure of several key players from last season, lack of depth in the squad, aging players. do i need to continue?unbelievable

I must have missed that, what did he do?

West Ham relegated

Sounds like a plan to me

At times you can be very weird... no offence

Corrected it as soon as i noticed it, thanks for pointing that out.

Josh is 18, he can still grow, hopefully he will and bulk up a little, will come handy- so get drinking milk, Josh

Would be a mistake to underestimate Torres, he will be good after the summer break. I remain fully behind Torres and start to judge him from the next season. Regarding Ancelotti. He might be going, might be not, the way he had a last glance towards different sides of the stadium might indicate the first one. Altough sacking him, in my eyes, is unjustified. It's been the players who have been playing shit and today's game proved that even more. Feel sorry for him but you know, people want a scapegoat and what a better way to find one than pointing fingers at the manager, typical Chelsea way. Sure, let's sack CA and what then? Hire Superman to manage us? Because Ancelotti is our 5th manager since the departure of JM in a short period of time. Every fan with some sense of logic can see this isnt the way forward. About tactical side of CA.. yeh, he might be a bit careful at times but getting a double also shows he has the calibre to bring home the goods and this season it's likely we will finish 2nd, not bad at all, no trohpies but no biggie, not every year is lucky. Plus there is a reason why he is a renowned highly decorated manager and us, well... simply passinate fans Patience and trust will go along way. The fact is, we've been going through managers so fast , too fast and players get absolutely no blame on them. Current team is functioning on the old core of Mourinho - Essien,Lampard, Drogba,Terry,Malouda and it seems to me it's them who have got the power in the dressing room not the manager. That was easily seen also during the reign of Scolari, no professional players should rebel against a manger. For this reason Chelsea should sell some of them to break it up and start a new core (eg selling Malouda, Drogba). Absolutely no flair, no creativity. We dont need an overhaul but 2-3 signings and Sturridge, letting go of some dead weight. I have a dream of Ancelotti staying on as a manager of Chelsea because "During your life, never stop dreaming. No one can take away your dreams".

The fact that there is a healthy competition is a good thing for the club and for the players themselves - they have to work hard and improve. I agree with Killamanjaro, Sturridge shouldn't worry about his place in the team but do his best, he will be noticed, no doubt (especially if any of the current attacking players leave). Although im not sure if he will be picked over Torres, seems realistic if not. .Sturridge will be like a new signing for us, looking forward to this.
