Berlusconi has just confirmed it. What an incredible squad Carlo Ancelotti will have to work with next season. Menez Lavezzi Alex Lugano Maxwell Gameiro Pastore Ibrahimovic Thiago Silva We're playing them in pre season as well. They will be in Pot 4 so definitely a team to avoid when the draw is done in a few months. Hope Arsenal or United get them
Great side on paper though I'd expect them to take time to gel as City did. Any team with Ibrahimovic in has the potential to self-destruct imo.
I have never got to grips with Carlo leaving us ! He did the business and was vey likeable! What on earth was Roman doing?
i do not think that carlo was sorry to leave, i think the second he had his number 2 sacked (cost us the prem) he knew he was better off away from chelsea. as you say, what the f*ck was roman thinking or who the f*ck was advising him
Really? I'd have thought that they have every chance of success since Ibra has won titles and cups at every club he's been at. Multi at most.
And with most of those players in the team they still somehow managed to bottle the title to the mighty Montpellier.
To be fair City in 10/11 to my mind still had a squad comfortably better than Chelsea and United but bottled the title. Much like we did in 03/04. The team will take a while to gel but Montpellier will lose all their best players. Marseille lost Deschamps and didn't make CL so have no appeal ATM. Lyon seem to be getting worse each year. Im no expert on French Football but if you ask me PSG are as much a shoo-in to win their league as Celtic are theirs.
One of lifes great mysteries. I' m certain as soon as Wilkens was shafted, Carlo thought, "get me outa here. This asylum is being run by the patients !!!" What was Abramovich thinking??? I don't believe he was thinking at all, nor was he being advised. No one could be dumb enough to give that advice surely?????? Hold on, those senior players ???
