...Bielsa?...Who?

Bielsa the "next scolari"

Gordon Strachan for next Chelsea manager

The most logival decision that could be made, by Roman and the board, would be t give Carl his final year on his contract and then wait and see the overall conclusion. I cannot see how a manager can make his own mark on a team that has relied upon the same back-bone for nearly half a decade in less thena season. We have signed players that looks set on having magical careers at Stamford Bridge - David Luiz, Sturridge, Ramires - and have some talented youngsters waiting in the wings,

We still have three or four that could be sold in order to garner more possible legends, but this is all about time. We are in a transition, and even though, yes Carlo has made mistakes over the course of the season, so has Roman, the sacking of Ray is one example and the reluctance to offer Borini a new contract will be another if it isn't shaped up.

Give Carlo another year, if you want his head, and then we can see this supposed 'Jose mark two' in the Champions League and see who is available then. At this point in time, i am only lookig forward to the last remaining games and the possibility in seeing the youth playing with the first team in pre-season like last year - which, since when last happened with our previous managers?

Bielsa the "next scolari"

Big disrespect.

I hope he does comes to a European team. Most likely it will be in Spain, and i hope it's a team that has potential.

P.S. I heard a rumor that Sevilla wants to get him. Let's see how that goes.

even in South America Bielsea is considered an average coach, I still dont get why you you think he would do good for us.

No you are wrong.

Maybe in Brazil, but other then that, the majority of other countries see Bielsa is one of the best in the world.

Hopefully we will see him soon coaching a team in Europe.

Ancelotti's last game at Stamford Bridge ?

'I don’t know what is going to happen about my future, but I’m not nervous. I’m quiet. I’m calm. I hope to stay - I’ve said a lot of times - but if something’s changed, I will find another solution without problem.'

Sevilla is talking to Bielsa, and trying to get him to coach them.

But Bielsa, is not called, "Mad Men" for no reason.

He is also putting some demands before being accepted.

And the majority, because i talked to a lot of fans from Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, and Venezuela, and almost all of them have told me that Bielsa is a great coach, and would like to see him coach at a team like Chelsea or City.

Big disrespect.

Argentina had the mist disastrous world cup campaign under him. Prio to that he was always an average coach and Argentina stint didn't do him any good. His only decent managerial stint was with chile. That's it.

Atleast scolari had great stints as international manager but struggled with week after week of management something I won't rule out with an average manager like bielsa

Bad world cup, but not a bad qualifier!

The best team in south america from the qualifier, and one of the best in the world.

Ironically, Scolari won the WC with his team....

Irony here, but you can't take away the brilliant campaign he did with Argentina for over a 4 year period. And then to do the same with Chile. Especially Chile, because it's not a Argentina or Brazil team. It was a team that was dead last in the WC south American qualifier.

Very few can do such a thing.

I posted articles about him in this post pages back. Won't do the same thing again.

Great Post !

Changing managers every time we don't have a fantastic season is not the way forward we need stability , we won't win the league every year no one does. I think the issue maybe the fixation with winning the champions league , i think Roman feels until he finds a manager to win us the CL he won't settle with one manager...

Agree on that but seeing as half the time you need luck in the comp and we dont have it..gana be a while!!!

And we bloody do need stablity!! Like said if we get a new manager,who has a great first year and a not so second year we'll be back to square one with the 'lets sack them blah blah blah'

We're second in the league for christ sake!!!!!May have won sod all this season but hey ho it happens!!Least we're in the Champions League for next season!

Villas-Boas plans Porto stay

Coach has no intention of leaving Estadio Dragao this summer Last Updated: May 13, 2011 9:50pm

Villas-Boas: Has been linked with a move to Chelsea

Porto coach Andres Villas-Boas has committed his future to the club amid constant speculation.

The 33-year-old has seen his reputation skyrocket this season, having guided Porto to the Portuguese title and a Europa League final date with compatriots Braga.

But despite rumours that he would leave in the summer, with Chelsea one of the mooted destinations, he has revealed he intends to remain at the Estadio Dragao.

"My future, as you know, is completely linked to Porto," he said.

"I do not know of any official interest from other clubs."

Porto's president Pinto da Costa insisted his sought-after young manager was happy in his current job and even made a personal pledge to him.

Dream position

"Out of the thousands of times that he has been asked if he would be leaving for another club, he has always responded that he is in his dream position already," he said

"We want to see you happy in this job for many years, and we will provide you with the conditions so that this season is the first of many with the success that we all want."

Meanwhile, Porto striker Hulk has played down speculation regarding his future, with reports suggesting he is a summer target for clubs across Europe.

The Brazil international said: "I am not desperate to leave. I am at a great moment in my career, and have three years' contract left with a great club.

"As the president said, if someone wants me, they'll have to pay, so I will leave it in my agent's hands."

Hulks' buy-out clause is currently set at €100million (£87.4m).

It is too early for Villas-Boas. He needs a few more years in Porto, though he's amazing I'd certainly like him as our manager in a few years.
