How in gods name can you say he would have to change his style? From what i've seen of Neymar, he works best as a winger, cutting in, playing as an inside forward. Mourinho plays either a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 at Madrid, but would accomadate this.

FFS, I have to get up early tomorrow morning now

Fuck Neymar, I'd rather us get Hazard and Mata/Sanchez, We'd probably get Hazard for less than 20m, and Sanchez or Mata for 30 or under, If you combine those two fees we would just about get Neymar. No thanks.

Welcome

If he feels thats whats best for the team I'll trust his judgement. Oh sweet jesus Clearly its not because of the money he gets, Its because its his job, He has to make these calls in order to suceed, and whatever decisions he makes are clearly according to him beneficial to the team. Build a bridge and fucking get on with it will you, your always trying to drag up Carlo to start arguments.

You post makes absouletly no sense, Just because we think its a mistake sacking Ancelloti means that were not allowed to applaud the appointment of AVB? As for Mikel and Kalou, If AVB says there good players, I'll trust his judgement more than anyone elses, He's getting a 5 figure sum a week, aswell as the 13m to buy out his contract, so I think he's a little more qualified to judge football players than me and you. No one said Ancelloti was one of the best managers ever and no one changed there minds. I believe sacking Carlo was a mistake, But I think that AVB is the better long term option.

The AVB factor could be a major factor, We have a manager that encourages football to be played the way it should be, and with his recent success why wouldn't a great young player want to play for him?

If he does give the squad a overhaul, we must give him time, We can't expect for players to leave that were in the first team, young replacements bought and for them to do a better job right away, If he does conduct it, Judge him on his first season ok, But the jury musn't come out until he's finished the second, which I'd be willing to back we'll have the European Cup and the Premiership in the trophey cabinet.

I will support every decision AVB makes, even if he decides to let go of Terry and Lampard, He is the best young manager in the world at the moment and he didn't get that title from being stupid. He reminds me of Brian Clough.

I'll do the contract negioations seeing as we are best friends.

Yeah, it shows that we did go in for him, and he didn't quash the idea either.

Mine and Romelu's conversation on facebook! Shane GuihenPlease sign for Chelsea F.C, we would love you too![*]5 minutes agoRomelu Lukaku Maybe next year Shane [*]4 minutes agoShane Guihen No this year, with you, Sturridge, Torres and Drogba we'd be unstoppable!2 minutes agoRomelu LukakuMy team and Chelsea had some contact but there is still nothing official between me, Anderlecht and Chelsea[*]A few seconds agoShane Guihen Its no secrect your a big admirer of Didier Drogba, and he could be gone next season so if you want a chance to play with him sign now!

Don't listen to Martin Lipton, He's a fucking pathetic journalist with a hate for Chelsea.

Would be a bad move from AVB if Sturridge is let go, The fans seem to be on his side and that would change I think. Sturridge can fire Chelsea to the league this season if he's given the chance.

Lmao. He only won 3 trophies last season, Why the fuck didn't he win 4?

Thought i'd get this kicked off early! Not doing enough interviews for my liking, Has to go.

He's only 33, He's only 33, Andre Villas Boas, Shits all over Fergie

Yeah think so, Tom Mason isn't it? Do you want all majors transfers or just Chelsea's?

Yeah I'll do it mate.

^ In fairness to him Carlo have good enough English, whats vital with AVB is that he can speak to Luiz!

Radamel Falcao is one step closer to signing for Chelsea, trying for a bond and a long-term annual return of 5.7 million euros. The Colombian striker (earning less than one million / year, the Dragon, and has a contract until 2013) gave yesterday, the "yes" to Andre Villas-Boas and Roman Abramovich, through the agent Jorge Mendes, after seeing reduced the chances to play at Real Madrid, who preferred to go to the Brazilian Neymar.

Under no circumstances do the three things you said have to do with Mangerial abillity.

You cannot say that on the bases that Villas Boas has had 1 excellent season, where as Mourinho has had lots, Including winning the same competitions that André has won, He also has many others including a treble at Inter. While Andre might prove himself to be a better manager than José in time, You cannot say that Villas-Boas is a better manager than Mourinho.

Yes, But you said he was sacked because he didn't play attractive football, Mourinho played defensive football.
