defense is sheit!!!! david luis ball watcher extreme...

wtf was avb thinking with that mid field

lampard shoulda been on from de start

the defense is missing terry’s leadership, in fact the entire team is. Luiz is young and prone to mistakes, I hope that he matures over time and I think cahill needs more playing time.

I don’t see how bosingwa started in front of cole and I cant see why meireles playing every game. We needed a good holding cdm in that game, maybe essien or romeu, miereles aint up to par.

I think avb needs to go, he isn’t the man for us. He constantly makes bad decisions, uses ineffective formations, always playing men out of position and his substitutions are questionable.

CHELSEA AND VILLAS-BOAS PART COMPANY
Posted on: Sun 04 Mar 2012
Andre Villa-Boas has parted company with Chelsea Football Club today.
The board would like to record our gratitude for his work and express our disappointmentthat the relationship has ended so early.
Unfortunately the results and performances of the team have not been good enough and were showing no signs of improving at a key time in the season.
The club is still competing in the latter stages of the Uefa Champions League and the FA Cup, as well as challenging for a top-four spot in the Premier League, and we aim to remain as competitive as possible on all fronts.
With that in mind we felt our only option was to make a change at this time.
With immediate effect Roberto Di Matteo has been appointed first team coach on an interim basis until the end of the season.

Abramovich to target Guardiola
March 4, 2012

By Harry Harris, Football Correspondent
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has sent out the message that he wants the best manager in the world and has targeted Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola in the summer after a move for Rafa Benitez fell through.


Having decided to sack Andre Villas-Boas, Benitez was considered on a short term deal until the end of the season, but it collapsed as the former Liverpool boss wanted a minimum of a two-year contract.

ESPNsoccernet sources hinted that Benitez might well have been interviewed last Wednesday for around five hours and that, on Friday, Abramovich's hierarchy had an emergency meeting to decide whether to axe AVB ahead of the match at West Brom.

After deciding to give him one final chance, a 1-0 defeat to the Baggies sealed his fate and Guardiola is now the coach Abramovich believes can sort out the mess at Stamford Bridge as he would command total respect for his achievements with the stellar names at the Nou Camp.

A source told ESPNsoccernet: "Roman wants the best in the world, so Guardiola clearly fits the bill, if he can get him of course. There have been one or two English managers names put forward, like Harry Redknapp and Glenn Hoddle, but Roman and his advisors like the men in vogue and they are usually the foreign coaches."

Guardiola has yet to decide whether he will extend his contract at the Nou Camp for another year, and the interest from Chelsea is sure to delay any decision still further as Abramovich is ready to make him the richest manager of all time.

well played by Chelski, Napoli on the other hand showed no fight, very disappointing. last few mins of the game was jus very sad

[cincuanta]

The timing of the firing of AVB worked out (as planned ???) as the "new manager hot streak" carries thru to Champs League.
