Official - Carlo sacked

[spuz 143]

Haha no thanks! But like I said, your points are well presented. If Carlo is sacked, it must be done after the final game of the season so the new manager can assess the players he has (including the youth) so he can sell the oldies and promote the youth, and also buy players only in areas we need and younger than 25. This is the only way the wage bill will be dropped.

I'd like a manager who knows Total Football. Someone like Pep Guardiola. But no the man himself.

That's the thing now. what is the long term gameplan. Before Jan 31st it looked like reducing the wage bill,now i'm not so sure. Might aswell give Carlo the season now,although wouldn't be too upset if he went before.After yesterdays resultsit was almost like an act of god to get us back in the race,today we could have completely destroyed any hopes the scum had of finishng 4th too.

Roman brought him in to win the CL and we're stil in it. So you never know. But we need alot of luck,and even if we do win it,I still wouldn't keep him.

The only way I'd keep Carlo is if we started to play well an win league games we should be winning,the CL is a one off cup competition where anything can happen.

I'd give much of the credit to Steve Clarke. It just goes to show wha a good assistant coach can offer. Meanwhile we have a poor manager and his assistant has only ever managed an under 14 girls team.

I remember fans (mainly oppo fans). Saying that Grant should have not got the sack just because he took us to the CL final !!! Now that is fickle and short term,short sighted thinking.

Why do we keep employing these people with no qualifications.

It's blind faith and makes you ignore all the warning signs. Grant was a nobody but people want to be loyal to what they percieve as nice guys even if they're rubbish.

Regarding the bold I've lost any hope whatsoever that we can win the CL with this Ancelotti. We may scrape through to the QF because we have arguably the easiest draw in the next round but the first good team we play will knock us out much like Inter Milan last season. The team is running on empty and Ancelotti is devoid of any new ideas or lacks the ability as a coach to change things.

Why don't you want him sacked? If a player is playing poorly with no signs of improvement the logical thing to do is count your losses and move him on. Why doesn't the same apply to managers? Where does this blind loyalty come from? This is a results business and the club has invested far too much to have a manager this bad wasting talent.

It's definitely nothing emotional. The best thing about Ancelotti is that when his tactics work, the football we play is fucking brilliant. Scoring for fun and dominating games like we never did. For that I believe he deserves a proper chance to build his Chelsea, and as we all know 16 Oufield senior players for a team competing in 4 competitions is not a proper chance.

Then again his annoying tendency to highlight his many weaknesses as a manager (rotation,youth management,tactics) often makes me think he's not the top manager we should be seeking stability with.

I absolutely share your concern about Essien, at his best he's one of the best midfielders we've had in the last 10 years, but he's looked like a different player for a while now.

I'm chelsea,we need young players like them not 50 mil wankers

[Lampards Bitch 21]

Carlo needs to grow a pair of balls and drop Drogba, anelka or Torres. I would be inclined to do the latter and make him work to get in the team. He needs to change the game plan. Sod it, go 4-4-2, We have done that in games and looked good(villa). We keep getting flooded in midfield and It's seriously fucking me off. it seems to me Roman is sticking his more in again and saying who he wants played. if We don't who champs league ....... bye bye Carlo

This is the heart of the matter. His weaknesses overshadow his strengths as a manager and his reputation as a cup manager points to that fact.

The sooner we win the cup the sooner we can get stability. I really want our next coach to adopt the Total Football ideology at the club. Would certainly allow us to function with a good size squad with keeping the wage bill down.

Seems like the defeat was meant to be. I do think a lot of us are overreacting to the loss, probably because it was the worst time and side to lose a game.

Give it time, I honestly think in 2-3 weeks we'll all be jizzing about how well Drogba and Torres complement each other

[Tomo 21,751]

Im more than prepared to give Carlo a chance.

He won the double and when his teams click the football is un-stoppable and out of this world. He delievered the double during his 1st season and conducts himself with more class than the rest of the premierleague managers put together.

There is all this why doesnt he paly the youngster? well if Bruma made a horror mistake (like Malouda at the Emirates for Example) he would get lampbusted and might take years to re-cover. Given them some expierence in the 1st half of the season and loaning them out in the 2nd half is genius from King Carlo (PVA and Sturridge are becoming key players for their loan clubs and im sure it wont be long before Kakuta follows suit).

Yes we have had a bit of a bad time this season but in previous season's Roman has pressed the panic button and got rid by now so he obviously realises that Carlo is infact the right man for the job.

I am disgusted by all who want Carlo out.We won the fucking double last year so stop being spoiled brats (the fans that are always complaining) and realize not every season will bring trophies and we will have some good and some bad seasons it is just the way things are in football.
