The press have always been out to stir relations between the Chelsea stronghold! I say we needn't worry and AVB for me is one impressive character. I love the way he handles the situations at present, really doesnt shy away from his position. Yeah he might have been abit rash in backhanding the media after the Valencia game (maybe should have waited for after the City win) but this is something we should be happy about the fact he is ready to fight our corner and fight against the sharks. This is what Chelsea thrive on, this is how Mourinho gained the trust and respect from his players because he stuck up for them no matter what, and i believe AVB will soon wield a bond of similar strength. He must bring in a few more players to stamp his own authority on the squad and really make it his but time is on his side and first we must beat CIty any whcih way possible. Up the Blues, You'll never take my Chelsea away!
