Bets on Carlo leaving/sacked reduced dramaticly

For people slagging of Emenalo still..

Nobody gives a flying fuck about Emenalo per se tbh. What people including myself are aggrieved about is the disrespectful manner in which Ray has been treated after all he's done for the club over all these years. And for no good reason either. If you replace a born and bred Blue with an unknown and unproven guy, you'll get criticism.

I know it's not on the same scale, but isn't this how Grant was received? Were you cheering then?

Winning tomorrow is an obligation...anyway, Im sure that if Carlo stay for another season, is only to avoid wasting money on the contract clause. I dont see us going to another Champions League Final nor winning Premier League again in this season.

We dont have a squad good enough to do so. The first games we played with our complete team, but we wont have it the whole season, as we dont have right now. The board must assume that we will have some seasons whith no trophies, while we build another strong squad, or they must waste money on new players. The problem with Chelsea is not always the manager, though I dont want Acelotti to stay beyond 2012, even if he win one Champions League.

Quite a magician you are. Let's strike a deal. Next preseason we'll hire you to tell us what's going to happen all year round, that way we can avoid playing games and bothering about the team's chances because Henrique has already predicted the outcomes.

Henrique does spout some rubbish ..at least Tommys ramblings are amusing

Carlo doesn't want total control

"More power? I don't know... For sure that would be more work, more jobs for me and I don't want this," Ancelotti told the Daily Star ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Zilina."I want to maintain my position. I am a coach. That's where my experience lies. I'm not able to speak about financial things, administrative things or contracts. I prefer to stay in my position and control technical matters. My aim is to stay here."

Quite idiot you and some guys here are. You dont need to be a magician to realize that we wont go too far in Champions League with this squad. Some people really love to read lies, like "we will win everything and Carlo will stay here for 15 years".

If you call being optimistic being an idiot, so be it. Your moanings and doomsday predictions are so fucking irritating. We have so little to complain about when compared to other clubs yet you and others make it sound like we're about to be relegated from the Blue Square Premier.

And you'll decide how far we go in the CL? Did you just have a beer with Pl*tini and Ov*rb*?

So Carlo's said this about Abramovic's "pressure"

"The owner doesn't put me under pressure. After the defeat against Inter it was normal to be under pressure because we didn't reach our result in the Champions League.

"It wasn't the owner who put me under pressure. He always supports me and is supporting me also in this moment.

"To be under pressure doesn't mean I'm not safe. It's normal to be under pressure. Under pressure I have more concentration.

"You have to look at the results. The results are not good and I have to take my responsibility and stay more in focus on my job.

"I have to use all my experience to give more opportunities to the players to do better."

Notice how he starts from the Inter game.. Then he says this..

Ancelotti did reveal that a meeting between players and coaches was held last week in an effort to get to the bottom of the current problems and he believes the outcome of those talks will be positive.

"It was a clear meeting. They spoke with objective thoughts. I was happy with that because I agreed with their opinions.

"Last year the meeting was a bit different. We lost an important competition like the Champions League, the meeting had a different aim.

"We wanted to change direction, mentality, to focus the players on the Premier League. Last week the meeting was just to speak about football.

"I don't think we're lacking in motivation. We want to win the Premier League again and we want to win the Champions League.

"We still have that opportunity. We are in the last 16 in Europe and we're top of the table. We didn't do well in the last three or four games.

"I agree with the criticism. There's good reason to be critical after these results."

Carefully chosen words from CA..

Lots of stuff about Ancelotti's management improved after the Inter defeat, I can only hope that the embarrassment against Sunderland does the same.

Carlo is a statesman. Nice to see he makes his troops feel wanted and values what they have to say.
