AVB claims some credit for CL win

[Heisenberg 1,824]

He is not a good coach , he must be more 'lucide' , he never managed to have a team that played football at Chelsea , when Robbie Di Matteo took us we managed to win 5-1 vs spurs 5-2 Leiceter 6-1 QPR 4-2 VIlla , we scored a lot more with Di Matteo , Torres getting the Hat trick agains QPR...

Fuuuuck off AVB,

you ain't got no CL trophy

He certainly deserves some part for winning CL and Facup, Mata is his buy I guess after all, but should seriously never join Spurs...

Mata was never 'bought' by Villas Boas , it was the direction, and seriosly , even us fans knew that Mata was a 'must buy' player.

But he does have a CL medal if I'm not mistaken.

Is that true? I've heard that, but I thought it was BS.

I'm not sure, the rule is very vague (only says that the club receives 30 gold medals). But since Players who were not involved in the final but only in previous rounds got medals and since AVB was our manager for more games in the tournament that RDM, I think it follows that he gets a medal as well, but I'm not sure.

The headline Sky Sports went with: "Roman quit on me", seems rather redundant now, considering what followed under RDM. Roman was right, take it on the chin AVB..

Naïve Villas-Boas.

It was 'Andre Naive-Boas', actually.

I was the one who christened him.

Yeah it's true.

Well he did manage us through the group stage which we got through, even though mistakes were made, so he does deserve some credit, how much? I'm not sure.

After winning both the trophies we won, this shouldn't even be talked about, there's no drama or controversy about him being sacked.

[Peace. 4,352]

"With André Villas-Boas we wouldn't have gone past Napoli and etc..." -> Had Lampard and co spent more time on trying to play well, instead of bitching like spoilt kids, we wouldn't have been in this kind of position, not at all.

AVB does deserve credit. It was him that brought RDM back to Stamford Bridge

[Ollie 4,400]

This is the type of thread that i can see serving about 3 days and getting locked lol.

Fact is, we got better when AVB left just like in 2009 we got better when Scolari left. I do think more is being said about his quotes than needs be. It's not a big deal.

Why even comment Andre ? He should be embarrassed that RDM got the reaction from the players that he did. Drogba at 34 years of age looked like he was rolling back the years with his dominant performances. He turned Mikel into a midfield dog, RDM turned Mikel into a midfield player that dominated the midfield in the biggest cup final in world football. EVEN FUCKING KALOU GAVE US SOMETHING IN A DEFENSIVE WAY ! The fact is he destroyed his relationship with a lot of the players when he basically shit on both Alex and Anelka !
