AVB out? seriously?

*The same was true for Scolari.

I think that was answered Hiddink and Ancelloti took the same squad Scolari had inherited and turned them into sides that won silverware.

Anyways, its too early to judge AVB. The Scolari scenario was unique, and the guy never really had the support of the players (apart from maybe Deco). Still, there are similarities between this season and the 2008 one..let's hope AVB can turn things around..

I think he can, but his biggest problem is an unsettled back four and a captain constantly under the glare of the media. Not exactly a happy working environment.

About the Scolari situation:

De Visser was also instrumental in the firing of Chelsea manager Luiz Felipe Scolari and the installment of Guus Hiddink. According to De Visser he alerted Roman Abramovich of Scolari's lacklustre training methods: "I had to watch training sessions he was giving to the squad. I died of shock. It was so weak, his training sessions lacked every kind of sharpness. It made the entire squad lack sharpness in matches. I did not need a lot of time to conclude things were really bad with Chelsea."

------------------------

Abramovich has his own spies lurking around Cobham to keep him posted. They didn't like what they saw from Scolari, simple as that... If they like AVB's methods, then he's safe. The dangerous thing is that if they don't like his methods, then they have a free agent in the shape of Hiddink waiting.

I hate this Mother Fucker But finally he has put up a MUST READ ARTICLE!!!

please read

Very good article, brilliant... but I don't get this: "The alternative is to nurture and create. To build on players like Juan Mata, Raul Meireles, Cole, Sturridge and Petr Cech." Cole is almost 31 and in decline, and Cech has always been our nr. 1, wonder how more can you build around him... otherwise I agree.

I admit it, Im the insider, I have complete access and am a regular visitor to the Chelsea dressing room, despite living in Ireland.

I've heard something similar about it in Guardian and in Telegraph. I think there must be a media conspiracy to fuck Villas Boas.

Andre Villas-Boas

And so to Villas-Boas. He has failed to overhaul an ageing squad, partly through his own inaction – he has abundant say in transfer matters but failed to accomplish all he might during the summer – and partly through his inability to force high-earners out of the club.

His team lacks pace and intensity, as well as balance, testament to years of mismanagement in the transfer market. Their play lacks cohesion. Emenalo, now technical director, remains a powerful figure, while rumours persist that Roberto Di Matteo, his assistant, is neither happy nor popular at the club he graced as a player. The parallels are clear. All that differs is their fate. For now, Villas-Boas seems safe. History weighs heavily upon him.

Thats it. I hope VB realize this squad is a crap, and need an overhaul and really buy new guys in the winter, though if keeps saying the same bullshit about the squad being superb, he can get his millions and go back to Portugal.

Cech also came out in support of Carlo about this time last year.

Insider? Who knows. I believe there may be a little bit of truth to it. Senior players unhappy. Locker room divided. Maybe not direct quotes but a word here, a word there. There is blood in the water and the sharks are circling.

But thats because the players loved Carlo...Point is, the players know they arent up to it.....but the board dont know that that players know that they arent up to it...

Yes, which is why we call them filthy hypocrites.

He knows what to do and he knows what he needs and this time next year, there will be a huge bastard change to this squad no matter what he and the press say. I bet nobody is more pissed off than him right now, his side is being humiliated in front of the world and we're one of the biggest teams in the world globally now. He knows this cannot carry on

It is his fault we're not doing well. Our defeats against Arsenal and Liverpool were largely due to his tactical failure, and whatever he said to the team prior to the Leverkusen match failed to motivate them. He's shown that he's got the courage to drop the big players, but recently, with pressure piling up, he's made some poor squad selections and substitutions as well. I'm not quite convinced it was a right decision to appoint him, but he should be given at least 2 years of time and enough money to have his dream team. Switching managers won't do us any good at all.

Yep, think we can all agree on that..

The whole squad should be as 1 anyway, there's serious problems if everyone isn't together and if there are certain problems, that will obviously cause disruption. The team looks so low in confidence, it's not good to see. The body language is bad
