Chelsea Sack Andre Villas-Boas

[CHOULO19 24,332]

"Today we gave everybody a slap in the face."

I love this man!

[The Big Drog 1,110]

His reaction to the win last night was perfect. "A slap in the face of our critics" perfect. He deserves a tonne of credit for what he did last night, he got everything absolutely right, he was brave with his team selection and his adaptability too.

[Laylabelle 9,359]

Everything spot on yesterday...defintly proved his crictics wrong!

And good response from him in his interviews..they kept asking daft questions before the game as well!

[DYC. 7,542]

Perfect reaction by Villas-Boas.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Press conference was a thing of beauty. I love how Gulit criticised it (as usual). Bravo André, bravo.

Good to see AVB attacking the media, always frustrated me when Carlo would shrug things off or label everything as a 'bad moment™'. Throughout AVB’s reign so far, his handling of the media has been considerably better. Well.. Apart from when he indirectly criticised the fans for the poor performances, and claimed we needed nobody in January. Other than that, we as fans enjoy vastly improved communication from the manager.

That picture of lukaku is AMAZING

Some of this comes from a former Manchester United defender [Gary Neville] who sits up top [in the commentary box] and in his preparation for the game says things like 'I wouldn't want to be one of the Chelsea players today, I couldn't play this game, it is a difficult game for them' - this is out of this world, I can't believe this sort of thing.

Don't know what he's on about there tbh. Neville was extremely fair in his views during the game and spoke particularly highly of the way we played, even mentioning that Luiz deserved praise for the maturity of his performance.

Yeah I didnt think Neville was that bad

Spot on about City...nothing has been said about them its been all about Chelsea...okay City may not have had as much experince in Champions League but they're still pretty much out yet focus and crictism all been on us and AVB

Check this video of AVB before the game.

Priceless.

He mindfucked the shit out of Valencia.

LMAO. Valencia didn't knew what hit them last night. We are in a great position right now, our opponents don't know what to expect from us now

[manpe 10,861]

The commentators said that before the game AVB named a list of Valencia players who he considered to be main threats and he left out Soldado... probably intentionally. Anyway, him leaving out Soldado was a good call, he had like 0 or 1 shot the whole game

Oy Henrique, it seems the stupid red beard got it right (again) last night ey?

It seems the Naive-Boas ain't naive as some people like to think :toke:

His adopted title ‘Naive-Boas’ was a justified insult based on mistakes/tactical naivety for which he has been responsible for. It's not a personal hatred, it's great to see he's finally dropped the high-line for example, that doesn't mean anyone has been proved wrong though, or that previous statements/criticism were unjust.

He proved a lot last night and i have a bit more trust than i did before knowing that he knows what he needed to do. He's a very intelligent man anyway and last night was perfect from him. He changes the team and shows guts and isn't scared to play about. This may not be a great year or 2 but if we stick with him, i believe he'll take us the right way.

[Amblève. 4,995]

Fantastic tactics again from our stupid red beard (TX, thx for this nickname )
