Chelsea Sack Andre Villas-Boas

Lampard admits having problems with AVB

Frank Lampard today admitted for the first time his relationship with Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas had "not been ideal".

Speculation has been rife of a conflict between midfield star Lampard and Villas-Boas virtually all season, with the former unhappy about the number of games he has sat out.

Today was the first time either had openly admitted their relationship had become strained, although Lampard did not want to dwell on any problems the pair might have had.

He said of their relationship: "I think, from the outside, you can probably see that it's not been ideal but the important thing is not to focus on individual relationships too much.

Some members were saying it was only a media conspirancy.

Abramovich Strikes Back! What AVB Would Have Faced Had He Lost To Bolton

Chelsea might have won against Bolton on Saturday, but what would have happened if they didn't. We use the magical powers of our imagination to work out Andre Villas-Boas's fate, casting our eye towards the very bowels of Stamford Bridge, where Frank Lampard and Roman Abramovich are cooking up a surprise...

There is a great activity on the platform. Six stewards frantically prepare the chamber for use. A special coffinlike container is put into place. Frank LAMPARDstands to the side, looking sinister. Andre VILLAS-BOAS is muscled towards the contraption, accompanied by defenders Ashley COLE, Branislav IVANOVIC and Jose BOSINGWA. Ersatz midfielder Raul MEIRELES is also with them, as is owner Roman ABRAMOVICH.

Andre VILLAS-BOAS: (to Ashley COLE) What's going on...buddy?

COLE: You're having your contract... frozen.

Roman ABRAMOVICH moves away from the group to Frank LAMPARD.

ABRAMOVICH: What if he doesn't survive? He's worth a lot to me.

LAMPARD: The fans will compensate you if he dies. Put him in!

Realizing what is about to happen, Branislav IVANOVIC lets out a wild howl and attacks the stewards surrounding Andre.

IVANOVIC: > . Rwwwwarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!

Within seconds, other reinforcements join the scuffle, befuddling the giant Serbian bear-man with their complicated words and such. From the instant of IVANOVIC's first move, Jose BOSINGWA begins to scream in panic while he tries to protect himself with his enormous eyebrow.

BOSINGWA: Oh, no! No, no, no! Stop, Branko, stop...!

The stewards are about to confuse IVANOVIC even further with their words and instructions.

VILLAS-BOAS: Stop, Branislav, stop! Do you hear me? Stop!

BOSINGWA: Yes, stop, please! I'm not ready to start at right back again. I may never be!

VILLAS-BOAS breaks away from his captors. LAMPARD nods to the stewards to let him go and the manager breaks up the fight.

VILLAS BOAS: Bran! Bran, this won't help me. Hey!

VILLAS-BOAS gives the Serbian bear-man a stern look.

VILLAS-BOAS: Save your strength. There'll be another time. The princess - you have to take care of him. You hear me? Fernando needs your help.

Andre winks at the Serbian bear-man, who wails a doleful farewell.

IVANOVIC: Mwaaaaaarrrrr! :-(

In a flash the guards have slipped binders on IVANOVIC, who is too distraught to protest. Andre turns to Raul MEIRELES. They look sorrowfully at one another, then Andre moves toward him and gives him a final, passionate kiss.

MERIELES: I love you!

VILLAS-BOAS: I know.

FWOOSH!

I don't get the Ivanovic-bear reference.

[Clevemayer 764]

its normal and its good... if lamps can't live with it... as hard as it is he has to go... thats it... terry came out and backed boas to do well what ever he does... but fair play terry plays the majority of the time...

lamps is a legend... and will alwys be... but he cant say... "if you sit at the bench you want chelsea to win"... yeah nice... but whos fault is that chelsea isnt winning anymore for 4 seasons now?... ask you're self and don't blame the manager

[DDA 9,933]

I'm backing you Andre! Fuck the haters, fuck the fans who cry their eyes out begging for change then can't withstand the difficulties that you have to face in order to correct this mess we are in! You deserve better pal from the fans and the players! It truly disgusts me the amount of grief the players are dishing out on this guy! What amazes me the most though is that it's our senior players who supposedly love this club and want to win at all costs! BULLSHIT! Lampard, Cole, Essien, whoever the fuck ever you are, if you don't want to back this young, ambitious manager when he is clearly trying but struggling then fuck off out the club. No player is bigger than the manager let alone the club. Would do you a world of favours to remember that Ashley you arrogant prick!

Sunday February 26,2012

By John Richardson

ANDRE VILLAS-BOAS is on the brink of being sacked as Chelsea boss after failing to quell a dressing room mutiny.

Despite Chelsea’s win over Bolton yesterday, owner Roman Abramovich – who replaced the experienced Carlo Ancelotti with rookie Villas-Boas – is to concede that his gamble has failed.

Now Abramovich has been told by his advisors that the club won’t win anything with a divided dressing room. A Chelsea insider told the Sunday Express that the end was near for villas-Boas regardless of results. Last night Villas-Boas was linked with inter Milan.

He won't win anything changing manager like he changes his underwear! Maurizio Zamparini is a crazy owner, but Roman is even crazier :huh:

And I'd like to know the name of this "insider"

Once again its just 'a Chelsea insider'. Lazy journalism, if there was a real story there would be at least some quotes.

[Justin_3d 1,140]

They should make me a journalist. I can create a whole bunch of things with the words "insider told me"

you write enough shit to be one

[Chelsea? 892]

when do you guys think players stop running chelsea? It almost seems as the players judge the coaches ability instead of focusing on playing a good game.

Pep would probably be our preferred replacement, we wouldn't get rid of him now and hire a coach, ruining our chances of getting Pep.
