The Media

With another sacking happening at Chelsea, have the media always been right about Chelsea?

People here mention how the media always gets on Chelsea case, but is this a case of where Chelsea has brought it on itself?

Graeme Souness, Gary Neville, Jamie Redknapp, Alen Hansen and a few are of many pundits that have talked in negative light against Chelsea in the past months. But looking back at their comments, have they been right?

Probably not what you meant in your OP, but I believe the media played an enormous part of the ridiculous shenanigans of this season. Who knows what's true and what's not about what took place, especially in the build up to the departures of Alex & Anelka. These were real catalysts in the negative feelings of the dressing room, and because poorly reputable sources like the Daily Mail & The Mirror reporting them we never know what's true.

The media always has an agenda with our managers. They've been f'cking with us since Mourinho left, with stories that they conceive from 'dressing room sources' etc.

True they been messing with Chelsea since he left, but everything they talk about is true!

Players power, trigger itching firing owner.

If that's not true, I don't know what it is.

Of course they take such things and make a big fuss out of it, but who wouldn't if you need to captured people attention to sell?

The UK media is always against foreign managers. And any two-bit British manager will get hyped up as the best manager in the world.

Yeah those 2 are true, but it's the little stories that make us go "is it true, is it not?" because they're the one that build up to the over all image of what's going on.

Exhibit A :

Chelsea draw with Birmingham in FA cup : AVB under pressure

Chelsea held to draw by Utd after going 2 up : AVB under pressure

Chelsea lose to Arsenal : AVB under pressure

Exhibit B :

Spurs draw with Stevenage in FA Cup : Harry for England!

Spurs lose by a 3 goal margin at Arsenal : Harry for England!

Spurs get bollocked over by the worse Utd team in 10 years : Harry for England!

The same can be said for the players.

I wonder what Bevan is saying about Richards today.
