Chelsea Sack Andre Villas-Boas

[Laylabelle 9,359]

It doesn't matter how well AVB has faired it was incredibly disrespectful to do that. It is one thing to boo and jeer but this is entirely different.

I hate to say it but AVB is headed for the Guillotine and I would really like Gianfranco Zola to have a shot.

The thing is as well..if we did get Jose and things went shit...we'd no doubt hear chants for another manager whoever avilable at the time etc..happened with Carlo and all.Its stupid!Whats the point.Not gana change anything!

Hmmm Zola be an intresting choice but the way some of our fans turn against managers..nah.To nice a guy for that shit

Every of those "fans" who sang the Mourinho chants can fuck off right away and never come back to the Bridge again! Stand behind your coach, you fucking dumbasses!

I can see why they're angry. He clearly can't motivate the team and they have no respect for him. He'll be gone by the end of the season.

At least the backroom wouldn't turn on him, which seems to be a common theme at Chelsea. I think Zola would be a clever and cunning manager.

Some people who deserve a shout out:

Di Matteo

Dennis Wise

Ray Wilkins

Steve Clarke

...Jozay Mooreeno

I fear for Andre. He looked really nervous in the first half, he also looks like he has lost some weight. His hands were shaking scarily in a couple of camera shots in the first half. The disgraceful fans chanting Jose's name certainly did not help.

Thats the thing though does seem to happen often regardless who the manager is.They get to a stage where some 'meh attitude' comes into play and thats that.Happened with Scolari,Carlo and even with Jose at a point..that Rosenburg game where no really was there at all! There is no point bringing someone in if the egos cant be sorted out and the same thing will happen again

And if they cant get motivated for the Manager be nice if they could do it for the fans.Who have made the effort to go and follow their team,spent the dosh to get there and tickets and then to spend 90 mins watching players mehh around..

My dad earns about 2000€/month and he motivates himself every morning to go to work. If the players can't motivate themselves to play one match a week and earn about 100.000€ for that game they can fuck off too. If all the fans would stand behind AVB, there would be no chance the board or Roman would even consider sacking him.

I feel incredibly anxious about the current situation this club is in. It is no wonder I have been trying to avoid the Premier League a lot in the last month or so.

I try to focus on Bundesliga, La Liga and Serie A.

Ridiculous if that's your thinking!

How can you say he will be gone when the club just fire Carlo for 15 mill, to get AVB for 13 mill and then fire him one season.

That is a joke of a club!

[petr.breu 1,618]

I miss this guy ->

But I'm still behind AVB...

[termninja 5,290]

I'm starting to be sick of this...for 2 seasons, terrible football and manager's future in doubt.

And I am especially sick of trying to understand what is happening behind the scenes. Is AVB a good manager with a shit squad? Is squad against him? Perhaps everything is good but he fails to motivate them? Perhaps Kalou is trying to overtake the dressing room? bla bla bla...one thing I do know is that results are not going our way, boardroom is not pleased and with FFP rules coming we can't afford to miss out on CL and especially this season after which we need to attract new quality players.

Only if our stupid board waited 1 more year with Carlo...there was nothing to lose, we would see how AVB fared in CL and perhaps we could get Mourinho or Hiddink later on if Carlo failed again.

Fans? Those are not fans I heard and watched. Those are tourists who paid money to watch entertaining football. Our manager is going through the toughest period of his career and what they do? Sing Mourinho's name...instead of outchanting Birmingham fans they sing Mourinho's name. What does that mean to players? Even the fans don't support AVB, why should we?

...

At least Ramires, Essien, Mikel and Drogba are back so I don't have to watch clueless blondie and pass'n'shoot maestro Meireles anymore...

[Laylabelle 9,359]

The Carlo sacking as well!Daft! He won us the double..we finished 2nd...and its to late now to realise mistakes have been made!He could've learnt from his but never given the time.And we're worse off now..so didnt exactly work out!

I'm sure you'll be right as they were the Birmingham fans, taking the piss. Having been there and watched AVB deliver his usual load of rubbish, I can be certain of this.

Sickening...

The last time I checked KTBFFH was the chant that neede to be sung when things are down; not the name "Jozay Mooreeno".

@TheChelseaBlog asked all the other reporters around me in press-box, all said Birmingham fans singing JM

Henry winter confirmed it was the Birmingham fans singning 'Jose Mourinho'.

,

So please, we shouldn't be calling our fans a disgrace... they paid their hard working money to watch that... I feel for them.

It's not what I'm thinking (not yet) but it'll no doubt cross Gourlay's mind if results don't improve.

But no sane club does that.

That is a circus.

I learn to like this club a lot, but to do that again is just a big insult to the club.

Cause frankly all it does is keep loading us on debt from Romans money, and then we have no money to buy players because we spend expensive packages to get rid of coaches thus leaving us with a lethargic squad....
