Chelsea Sack Andre Villas-Boas

[Fernando 6,585]

This thread is littered with contradictions. Supporting AVB.. yet pointing out his 'many' tactical faults/naivety, backing stability for the sake of stability.

If Jose’ is genuinely serious about 'finally' settling down for the long haul, Roman needs to swallow his pride and reinstate the special one. I dread to think what will happen If he ends up at United, City or Spurs, and stays there for 10-20 years.

Your dreaming.

[Term-X 7,891]

Your dreaming.

Indeed.

Harry to England, Jose' to Spurs, stays there for 10-20 years = Nightmare world for Chelsea fans.

Yeah well we knew that was going to happen sometime when Roman sack him.

Inter Milan are in their own crisis and Liverpool went through the same thing we are going through except at this stage if you compare the two with us,you will see that we are doing better in terms of league position.The reason to this is because of our manager.He's a kind of manager who wants to bring out a change in our football style and mind you its going to take at least a season for it to happen.The man has a vision and its our duty as fans to support till the end of his reign as Chelsea manager.

That's the problem, i wanted AVB in here at first because i thought he was special, but he's shown no proof of a good manager in him, so many faults infact he's shown that he's an average manager if that. He doesn't seem to know what he's doing, the only thing, i hope he proves me wrong and this is all one bad thing lead to another and if he gets his own players it turns out to a complete different situation and he is on top of things. Because you can't fault his signings, Meireles wasn't a great signing because of how much we paid, he's never 13 million, but he's still a good player he's just playing bad and AVB can't seem to sort him out. But could be a good squad player if we ever do get a good team.

Yeah but he talks so quietly cant hear what the fuckers saying. Mourinho was better, toyed wiv da meeja.

Seriously AVB has a lot of faults. Crap subsititutions and same wank formation.

I dont feel sorry for him at all,anybody who keeps playing Malouda and Bosingwa asks for everything he gets,If he would of come out and said he was going to give the youth a chance 90 % of fans would of understood,This style of play has got to be the most boring ive ever watched us play and ive watched some shit, Its the fans who travel and spend there hard earned money i feel sorry for.

What youth?

[Fernando 6,585]

"Maybe I will have some retrospective of what I did and think about the preparation.

"I will reflect hard with my technical staff on my decision-making."

-AVB

If that thinking curtails of dropping Bosingwa then he has done one smarter move!

And if he can add some more playing time to Ryan to change it up with A. Cole then that will be a great bonus.

^ Having a 'vision' is fruitless, if you don't have the tactical nous to support it.

How thorough was AVB's preparation for the Everton game?, his post-match comments say otherwise.

[ChelseaJosh 45]

He needs to try this formation

Meireles

Luiz

Malouda Bosingwa Lampard

Torres

Ivanovic Cahill Bertrand Essien

You may want to edit this a bit.

I don't know about you, but Torres in CDM seems like a bad idea to me...

He admitted his mistake, and that he will think about his decision making.

Is a good step up. I remember that you said you wanted hear this like Mancini does.

So he said it publicly that he screwed up and will see what needs to be done.

Thus we can judge by next game who he plays to see if he really decided to change some stuff, or it's more of the same.

[ChelseaJosh 45]

The real question is "Would you rather stick with AVB for another season and see how it pans out, or sack him and bring back José?".

So I am guessing you want AVB to get sacked and appoint a temporary manager so that we can go for Mourinho in the summer.

Tactical faults?

Too little too late, his pre-match preparation should have been conclusive. No excuses, especially after the United game..

How could he have been so complacent?.. considering the amount of pressure on him right now.

[The Rising Sun 711]

I dont think anyone is saying AVB should be sacked NOW.....

Carlo squeezed out the DOUBLE out of these players, minus some good additions, about 18 months ago.

Yes, these players are older than then.... But the minimum requirement of any manager to squeeze out of the squad at the end of the season is a top 4 finish.

AVB has been far from good and has shown few or no signs of brilliance or leadership abilities yet.

However, to give him the benefit of the doubt, and to say its not him but the squad and how the club is managed overall, He MUST get a top 4 finish.

That will earn him the right to work on his "project". I want to see signs that he can do a whole lot more than jumping around on the sidelines every match, while the team looks horrible and its not just Torres who is horrendous and out of form, the Whole Team Seems to be, except a chosen few.

As long as he shows some inspirational abilities and leadership as well as players playing FOR HIM, I will support his project for next season, but if we play as bad week in week out till end of season and get humiliated more times, And we miss top 4....Sorry AVB.

Our job as supporters is to give him every chance to succeed, but he too needs to give us every reason to believe in him. I Hope he does... at season's end.
