Official - AVB confirmed as Chelsea boss

[Guest justin_3d]

And that is why i want Van Basten, but no one here seems to agree with me. He is the only manager we're linked to now (except Pep) that gives the youth a chance, Hiddink doesn't either.

Yeah i said i was ok with him, as long as he played youth.

To be honest i would just like to see a young manager with something to prove given the chance to build something at Chelsea. No idea who that person is though.

Van Basten

Van Basten

To me it seems that Van Basten with Hiddink as DOF is most likely. And whilst i wouldn't be doing cartwheels at the appointment i would be more than willing to see how it goes without complaining about the appointment. Going for experienced managers clearly isn't always a gurantee for success

I seem to remember Van Basten when the Dutch manager encouraging Robben to leave us ..H e stated that playing in the PL would shorten Robben's playing career .. Not the ideal statement if he is trying to sign players for us.

A stupid retard considering he got his coach badges at Chelsea.

Good point, but that statement may be biased from the time being.

Wasnt there rumours yesterday that Redknapp was seen at Cobham and some even claim to have seen him leaving the Bridge? Highly unlikely tbh, anyone heard anymore on this? Is he still odds on?

The sun had a big article on him being the next manager, that has now been removed. His odds have gone out again from 4/6 to 6/4. Something has happended today, but i can't find any news about it on the big sites...

[ChelseaFanUK 1,014]

I have seen on a Spurs forum, well someone linked it, but they're saying he is still odds on with some bookies and they're convinced its happening.

I dont know odds as ive said before so whats the deal with betting suspended? Is it the Bookies panicking that they'll have to pay out loads if it happens... or they know something we don't?

Edit: If his odds have gone from 4/6 to 6/4 wouldnt that mean either us, Spurs or Redknapp himself, even a representative have denied it, thus meaning bookies have decided to lengthen his odds as it is now not happening

If they suspend bets on something then it is practically 100% it will happen.

Harry Redknapp's in the studio tomorrow for ITV. I'm sure something will be said about this, will be interesting to see what he has to say...

I cant agree. They are just hedging their bets in case they get hammered by somebody in the know.

I really cant see Harry being Chelsea manager.

This is latest from Spuds website Bit of a mate of a mate of a mate story, but my boss has just had a text saying solicitors are finalising Redknapp's contract to Chelsea. Friend claims to know one of the solicitors involved. No idea how reliable, but thought I'd share.

I know a certain website rhyming with hole.nom cant be mentioned on here, but they got a redknapp story on there, although they are probably 0.1% in reliablility

I feel like starting a 'Redknapp out in the summer' thread.

Interesting I heard that exact story...Although they added ''my mate told me about the Giggs super injuction 3 months ago as well'' at the end of it.

[diskoviolente 425]

No to Redknapp ! This guy doesn´t know anything about tactics. He just gambles on his strongest team. Oh god, please no, I don´t want to see that smug in our dugout....

[Fulham Broadway 17,311]

I dont think there will be an announcement for a while yet.

The betting patterns suggest twitchy redknob isnt the man, as he'd be fixing it.

Gonna have a wedge on another pensioner, Hiddink.

I would rather we got Benitez and crapped on him ....no way would I want Zola treated like Carlo or Wilkins
