Clemdog 39,389 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 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.From the Chelsea site.

OneDavidCooper 2,505 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Charlatan. I've expected this for weeks. Hate Chelsea but am glad he's gone, if only for that voice.Might as well appoint Lampard and Terry. They run the club anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stardog 11 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Should've had more time. Sturridge was clean through twice and should've scored yesterday...Drogba played well too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jafrfc 614 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Team full of shite? Bollocks.That team is filled with deadwood, maybe shite is too harsh. But it has to be rebuilt if there going to have a chance of winning the premiership. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
benbmyers 16 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 It's a shame, really think if he was given time to do things then he could have been successful, yesterday's performance must have been the last straw. Seen numerous shit about Benitez taking over, apparently discussions have already been going on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieD 19,036 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Shocking that he was not given time.Who will replace him?It's not really shocking Stupid, but not shocking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek1872 548 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 He was interviewed this morning and stated he had the backing of the board lol. Its a shame but he had a team in transition to work with. Without the money of City to spend he really needed at least 3 years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazzalivesforever 1,989 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Bad bad decision. He needed to get rid of lampard and terry. They were the curse of the club. They've got a far too cosy relationship with abramovich! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinnymate1690 650 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 What a surprise , terrible decision. The players didn't play for him and the sooner the likes of terry and cole and drogba are out of Chelsea the better Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
