Official - AVB confirmed as Chelsea boss

[Styles 9,790]

Let's not be silly, Redknapp will never be Chelsea manager...and thank god for that.

[chrismada9 1,948]

not really but if the waiter ends up at our club i want compensation for it haha

You might as well go for that as well then!

Villas-Boas has managed for less than TWO full seasons. I don't think he is ready to manage a veteran tabloid fodder club, accomplishments aside. How will he handle the next JT/Ashley Cole screwup? How will he assert himself to what is becoming a belligerent boss?

Porto is, despite their accomplishments, a regional club. Chelsea has global appeal and attracts global interest. In this league and this club, you can be a great tactical manager but mishandle things in the press and in the locker room and you will fail all the same. I'm not saying that Villas-Boas doesn't have potential, he has lots of it in fact. But do you think Roman will give him the time to grow into the job when others have not had that luxury?

Sensible stuff.

Villas-Boas has worked at Chelsea before, so he knows the system that we use, and what our strengths and weaknesses are, as well as learning from his counterpart, Mourinho, and he's brought silverware himself to Porto... he's not a bad manager to invest in.

But what amazes me, is that Boas is only 33 years old! That's terribly young to win a piece of silverware, and the Europa League as well!

[Term-X 7,891]

33 years old is such a young age to (potentially) kill your managerial career by coming here.

[Henrique 9,133]

Villas is staying with Porto. He said it less than one week ago. He or Mourinho wont be our manager next season.

[lionsden 4,689]

While it's true that people mature over time. Age is just a number and should never become an indice for determining a manager's quality and capability. How old was Mourinho when he won the trebble and UCL with porto. Guardiola does not have gray hair neither

[Henri 115]

Yeah, great idea. And who will buy Neymar et al, pay our current squad, hire a new manager and assistant, etc... ?

Really dont give a shit, just tired of this russian playing with his toy.

Why not, he is the only one who knows what the word respect really means, the rest forget it, bunch of gold diggers.

I'm getting fed up of sifting through bullshit, next people to take a topic off on a tangent are suspended for a week, its doing my fucking head in.

By all means discuss, but settle your personal differences elsewhere. And grow up while you're at it, its boring.

His toy?

Roman is more intelligent than most people give him credit for.

His toy? Whether you agree with his decision making or not, questioning his commitment to the club is ridiculous.

[Steve 10,227]

At the end of the day it is his toy. Whether we like it or not and all he is doing is trying to bring us success.

Do i agree with it? Not all the time but like i said we do not have a say in it. We can merely just discuss it.

[Henri 115]

Why?

[Henri 115]

His toy?

I have never called him stupid, i know he got brain.
