The Ancelotti Thread

[spuz 143]

Well some of them said how last season's achievements were pure luck. That's why.

If we win the league this season will that be luck? Can we look back and still say we were fairly awful?

[spuz 143]

Let's stop living in the past now. Some people on here sound like Liverpool fans,going on about history. How we were shit back in the day has nothing to do with Carlo being manager or not. The Double was last season,time to let go and judge on this season,or judge the double as a season that could have easily been a season where Carlo won nothing.

Not rating a manger is not fickle or ungrateful & a team/player/manager are only as good as their last result. We're in 2011, not the double of 2010 or the 80's where we didn't have 2 pennies to rub together.

Carlo,last season you proved me wrong,this season you're proving me right.

It's time to go. Thanks for the double but this is not Serie A where it's o.k to lose every few weeks.

Martin O'neill in until the end of the season please. 4-4-2 with width to give our strikers half a chance.

Well that is what we can expect from you. Your mentality is totally of a glory hunter mentality.

After the man proved you wrong, you are back to your same shenanigans.....

I am not amazed cause even United have people like you. I remember the year that United did not qualify after the first round of the CL in the early 2000's, and the glory hunters fans had the audacity to call for SAF head!

They had forgotten everything he done for the team, just in sake for not living in the past....

Yet even now people fail to realize that top teams and top managers like SAF had runs of very bad spells in the past, and will have in the future.

Chelsea is in transition, and Carlo is doing good by buying young players like Ramirez and David Luiz. He will get better, and will produce more of the good football he displayed with the team last season.

And not to mention that the one who runs the show is Roman and not the fans. And it seems Roman totally backs Carlo.....

Hence I feel like i am wasting my time explaining all this to you, when Roman backs the man you want out!

Main difference. CA still has the dressing room.

That's maybe why he keeps playing Drogba, Essien and al

Its better be a glory hunter than a failure hunter. Only failure hunters will support Carlo staying as the manager beyound the summer.

Good point. I can´t stand this kind of thing: "oh, he won the double last season". So now we will let he fuck everything because he have won the double. I was reading an AC Milan's forum other day, there was a threat about Carlo, when he was still in charge. You know, most of AC Milans supporters knows that he is avarage, and one guy said something like that: "Ancelottis supporters praise him when Milan win, but when that dont happen its because he dont have the right players".

Which has been key to his success as a manager.

[Henrique 9,133]

Yah, you know one thing or two about "fail", since you are one of those failure hunters. Go start a new team a ask Carlo to manage it until the end of his career.

[Gianfranco_Z 202]

Please carry on, this amuses me greatly :bs_spam:

I know it's a massive long shot, but WHAT IF we ended up with a cup double, CL and FA Cup. Before you dismiss me, it's not impossible as we're in both competitions at the moment.

Jesus Christ, at least give the guy til the end of the season before getting the guillotine ready, it's mental IMO

I don see if you realised, but this poll is about Ancelotti out in the summer. Nobody is talking about axing him right now.

[Gianfranco_Z 202]

Well clearly in many peoples heads he is a deadman walking. So to some of you it might as well be now regardless of how well we do the rest of this season

[BLionheart 516]

well , if carlo shouldn't be out in the summer .....

would you please tell me when should he be sacked ???

we are have lost the league and with this kinda form we will be out of the UCL sooner or later , if we are lucky we might get the fa cup , and we are already out of the carling cup .... and we might lose our UCL spot as well as we are already in 5th place now...

so if this is not enough to prove that he is not doing a great job , then please tell me when would you think that enough is enough ..??

For them the answer is never, because you know, he won the double last season, he is a long term manager, he won two CL, he...:pwned:

I cannot believe you just said that.

So, If Carlo stays, Your not going to support Chelsea anymore?

Close the door on your way out, Good lad.

[ZanSnake 1,211]

How can people be so ignorant to that this season is nothing more but a filler for the next season?

We have te smallest squad in the league, a fact and something that Carlo is forced to work with. Add the overwhelming factor of the large amount of expectation and pressure added to the double he has won, and the lack of form of top players - what more could he do but hope for the best? Carlo still has the chance to win the FA Cup and, even though it looks unlikely, we still have a chance at the UCL. If players like Zhirkov leave in the summer, and we finally give youngsters like PvA, Bruma, Sturridge, Kakuta, etc, and some reinforcements in the summer, we could build a team that is capable to win numerous of things for a numerous amount of time.

It is a matter of patience, and the level of greed which our so-called 'supporters' have. If some are ignorant enough to hide the fact we are in a transition, then let them moan and curse about Carlo as he awaits to lead the world class Chelsea to glory, then let them. We, patient people, will cheer on Chelsea no matter. Because, like the mighty hym sings:

'Blue is the colour, football is the game

We're all together and winning is our aim

So cheer us on through the sun and rain

Cos Chelsea, Chelsea is our name'

Sorry mate but you're full of s*it. You're being too radical about it. What would changing managers give us at a time when Ancelotti is just about to settle in, getting the funds and trust. Chelsea needs stability more than it does a few more trophies (having said that, I do believe we got a good shot at CL and FA cup) I wouldn't put the whole blame on CA because our front line has been doing nothing this term, with the exception of 1-2 performances from Anelka, Drogba. Malouda been zero this season. We have a reputation already that no manager wants to come here and you're one of those reasons (not you personally of course but the fans in general who are quick to trigger criticism). You can't compare Scolari and Ancelotti. Scolari came here and instantly fell out with the squad more or less, with Cech Ballack Drogba etc expressing their dislike. Ancelotti came here and won EPL, FA Cup although he had a ageing squad and no chance of winning according to media (I know this double fact is brought up often but there's a reason why) If you want constant glory, go back to Barcelona..see you back here when we're on a good spell.. in the meantime stop posting or atleast think what you're writing because it isn't helping your case.

LOL at the claims that if Utd kept Ronaldo and Tevez they would have won it easy.

How do you know that? if they kept them the chances are Rooney would not have had the brilliant season he did and he scored 10 more last season than Ronaldo did the season before.

You could say if we had Hiddink all of 08/09 we would have won it or if we had less injury problems in the 2 seasons before we would have won it, we didnt then and they didnt last season so its all if buts and maybes.
