Well, I didn't expect this before 3 days or so, I thought Guus will come, but things happen. I'm sure AVB is a really good coach and I hope we will win many trophies with him

Its been long overdue. Welcome back to Chelsea André.

Welcome

[DavidEU 2,023]

Really happy with this news. Glad to see the club take such a bold choice, and I just hope that they carry that through with patience and continuity. AVB has the talent and potential to be a great Chelsea manager, if we allow him to be. Lets hope we're not doing this topic thread again for many a year.

Someone just pointed out to me the follow interesting statements from Chelsea over the past few years:

Scolari -

He is one of the world's top coaches with a record of success at country and club level. Scolari gets the best out of a talented squad of players and his ambitions and expectations match ours. He was the outstanding choice.

Ancelotti -

Carlo was the outstanding candidate for the job. He has proved over a long period his ability to build teams that challenged for, and have been successful in, major domestic and European competitions.

Villas-Boas -

Andre was the outstanding candidate for the job. He is one of the most talented young managers in football today and has already achieved much in a relatively short space of time.

Will there be a Live Press Conference??

[Sheva. 5,373]

Thank you Roman

[Melanicus 5,208]

Welcome AVB! Blue is the colour!

[DavidEU 2,023]

Will there be a Live Press Conference??

Yes, TBA. My bet would be Friday or Monday. He starts work 'immediately', so we don't need to wait until July 1 for this.
