Chelsea Sack Andre Villas-Boas

Same way as he came back on Souness when he belittled AVB's achievements with Porto!

Absolute legend!

Have you got a link for that? i dont think i seen it

Funny how thay tolerate referees mistakes. What's the point of having a referee then if he is allowed to make 3 big mistakes per game?

Souness: It’s not the hardest job in the world to win the league with Porto because Porto seem to have it well and truly sorted one way or another over there.

André: Souness made comments about it being easy to win at Porto. It was easy to win at Liverpool in the '90s and the '80s, wasn't it? But he was five years there and didn’t win anything.

I think was clear from the first couple of match conferences this season that AVB doesn't give a shit about the press or their opinion...so I don't see why we should care about their opinion on him...

Journalism has become disappointing of late. They're supposed to observe and report. Now they have their own opinions on everything and twist the minds of simpletons to see what they want to see...Bunch of c**nts..

'The three goals happened with two offside and a ricochet, so where is the naivety in that?

'The fact that the three goals were scored, that doesn't mean defensively we were in chaos. It's a more difficult path but it can mean trophies as well. You can take many different ways in football and be a success, I would never criticise someone who takes the opposite approach. I find it as good as any other approach. It's just that you must believe in what you do and the players in what they do.'

WOOLY is obviously some dumb sheep ,,,ignore his bleatings and get out the mint sauce

'It hasn’t taken him long to moan about ­refereeing. It was too soon.' Well if the refs didnt make mistakes he wouldnt have to! What a complete shit article! The reason they get slated is because they make mistakes over and over but yet never noticed...Stuar Atwell for christ sake and the ghost goal went on to make more costly mistakes but its the teams fault not his...or the Managers fault for having an opion..and it aint nothing new either just because he is the new guy and is Chelsea Manager so now every comment no doubt be reported and crisited depite him being right

Kenny Dalglish has been slating refs but yet thats fine :s sure he wouldnt complain either if a desion went his way but thats been inored obviously and if a decison does go that way that'll also be inored.However if happens to us be mega higlighted and hear about it for weeks

You know things are bad when Graham Poll in his random colum says the descisons are wrong and goals shouldnt have stood

[dodojojo 510]

Two red cards in a week...please, AVB, no more complaints about the refs.

[Sheva. 5,373]

Haha i agree. Same happened to Liverpool after Queen Kenny complained.

It's getting annoying this misuse of "your" and "you're"... I hope the maker of those pics isn't british

[Kostas 1,468]

Still waiting for your answer, cause i don't understand what you are implying by "common sense"

Don't need to imply anything. It's common sense that a man with AVB's football knowledge and basic intelligence wouldn't approach a possible game against Barcelona in exactly the kind of way that they want. Our quick passing can be sloppy enough as it is, with Barcelona's pressure we'd get murdered just like any team that tries to play football at Camp Nou.

[Kostas 1,468]

Manchester United could only improve so much over the pathetic side that they were last year. Barcelona's efficiency is on another level.

[manpe 10,861]

Yeah and i did not thought AVB would do that as well at United own home, when they where playing some amazing football, and where scoring goals for fun.

AVB had the guts to play like that Old Trafford, so i don't see why he can't do the same at Camp Nou?

With all due respect to manure, Barca are a tougher nut to crack. In the CL final Barca humiliated ManU, didn't they hold possession 65% of time? Besides it's okay to take some risks in the league where one game doesn't necessarily determine everything, but in a knockout competition and especially at Camp Nou you have to take a bit more different approach than we did at OT. AVB went on a gamble and it nearly paid off, but we were still vulnerable at the back.. Barca, in my estimation, are much more ruthless in exploiting those spaces we left behind.

But who knows, if AVB gets things ticking much better than they at the moment are, beating them with their own weapon could prove to be the most effective method as of yet.

[manpe 10,861]

AVB's philosophy is well known to include aggressive pressing high up the pitch, so no doubt we will see more and more of this.
