BLionheart 516 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 The only reason why AVB was sacked is that it was almost impossible to achieve a top 4 spot with him as our coach , there was a fight in place between him and most of the players ,so Roman had to pull the trigger because one of both sides had to be replaced and you can't replace players in March.I was one of those who called our board stupid and insane to sack AVB but i can see where they are coming from , now looking at the bigger image i can see that they had no other options if we would like to achieve a CL spot , they didn't sack AVB because they thought he is not good enough but it's the other way around , the players are too bad that they can't play for him .My point is they could have simply waited till the summer and replaced those under-qualified overpaid players with new ones and kept AVB the very good and promising tactician but them sacking AVB speaks volume about how a CL spot is vital for us Financially and to keep out position as one of the top clubs in the world attracting best players , prospects and employees.

Peace. 4,352 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Do you think a club is more attractive for players by winning the Europa League or by being a laughing stock three years in a row in Champions League ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yeh, let's spend big again. Pull off another flop purchase like Torres for 50 million.All we need is 2-3 decent players and phasing out of the old guard.You must be joking.

A good manager doesnt make this kind of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English Freak 456 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 He was having problems with lot of players. A good manager doesnt make this kind of thing.Yep, he was having problems with the old guard. I don't recall any of the younger players (the players that will lead CFC into the future) bad mouthing AvB and complaining to the media.It was Chelsea's fault for hiring AvB, i'm sure there were other more experienced options out there after Carlo got the sack. He was too inexperienced to deal with big egos such as Lampard, Drogba, Malouda, Terry at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
