Chelsea spent 28 million pounds ($45-million) on firing manager Carlo Ancelotti and hiring Andre Villas-Boas, an outlay that does not appear to be paying off with the team performing worse in the English Premier League this season. Definitely seems like a spoilt rich kid trying to buy better toys than his poor neighbour. How long does AVB have, as Ancelotti was clearly the better manager.
Don't think it cost anywhere near £28,000,000 lads. I agree yogi he is definitely going to have to pull something out of the hat to secure his job. I wonder who actually wanted Torres? Was it Roman?
Transfer policy they work under at Chelski is shocking like. Sure when a reporter asked him about that new kid Kevin DeBruyn im sure he said "I dont know anything about him, ask the representatives from the club" or something to that effect.
Talk today that Crapello might get offered the Chelski job if AVB does not win the next 2 games. True is was on talkshite so thats probably what it is but I would not put it past Chelski.
I think Roman personally signed Luiz & Torres and told Ancelotti that he'd have to win the league to keep the job.
They had an agreement in place to buy De Bruyne last year i believe, so they took them up on the option, even though they have a different manager. But dont most of Europe work that way, Real Madrid have had the Galatico, they have elections for the chairman, he promises the likes of Beckham etc, he gets voted in on that promise, then he goes and gets them, the manager hasnt really got a choice in the matter. and pretty sure most of the rest of them have a director of football who deals in all transfers. Seemingly it happened with us in the summer, Bruce had nothing to do with McLean coming in (Probably why he never played him) so sometimes the way they do it can work wonders.
Correct, plus the fact that Chelsea are an ageing team, they will have to rebuild in the summer,,,,,,,,,,,,,,or deep **** beckons.
