I really like how animated he gets on the touchline, it's like watching what I'd be like and even though I'm always screaming that he's an idiot during games, when he makes substitutions I don't like, they seem to be working. 4 wins and a draw away at stoke? I think we'd have taken that at end of last season. AVB :cfc:

I absolutely love him! My favorite manager ever! His style, ideas and ideologies, interviews and emotions. Absolutely class coach. I'd really like him to remain here for a while

Why is AVB ruthless and drops Frank and JT where Fergie is resting players? Stupid media.

This Sunday is the real test. Doesnt get any bigger than this for him.

Was only 11 years of age when Fergie first managed Man Utd and now he takes him on in the opp dugout.

I think this is a great time for this game. The pressure is on them, they are expected to beat us handily. Combine that with the memories of losses in the CL and losing out on the prem to manure and the squad will not be short on motivation. AVB won't have to work hard to get them up for it! The only thing that concerns me is the mancs sky-high confidence, if they get off to a good start it will be really uphill. I wouldn't feel doomed though if they score first, we beat them last season in such a situation.

Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas's footballing philosophy

http://www.telegraph...philosophy.html

Very good read!

Finally had a chance to read this after having it on my Read Later list for a month. Fantastic interview with plenty to focus on.

Shame such a small percentage of managers have so interesting interviews. Mourinho's early stuff, Guardiola's analyses and AVB's views are similar in that way.

Credit to AVB. What a man.

1. He did what no Chelsea manager did in a long time. Take the attack to Man Utd on their own pitch. Caught Fergie by surprise and if it wasnt for Torres and Ramirez miss we should have been 2-0 up.

2. His brave tactics were undone by an incompetent linesman and a lucky goal.

3. He had the balls to drop lampard after HT. i mean WTF. When was the last time our manager did that? And immediately, Anelka puts Torres through.

4. Yes Man Utd had chances but they only got them cus we were made to chase the game thanks to stupid refereeing.

5. We absolutely carved them open today. With better finishing we could have had 5 past them. Brilliant football under AVB.

6. AT HT we could have given up and got smashed like Wenger's Arsenal but we took the game to them and should have finished the chances that came our way.

7. Hard Luck, but with this man at the helm, we could achieve great things this season. Just get Drogba and Torres on form.

I do believe Hansen is talking out of his ass this time!
