Roman wields axe on AVB

[Confuseous]

Published: 31 minutes ago


CHELSEA have sacked Andre Villas-Boas after a dismal run of results.

The Blues have struggled for consistency this season and are in danger of missing out on a top-four finish for the first time since Roman Abramovich bought the club.

Villas-Boas, 34, saw his side slump to a 1-0 defeat at West Brom yesterday and that result appears to have been the final straw for trigger-happy Abramovich.

A statement on Chelsea's official website said: "Andres Villa-Boas has parted company with Chelsea Football Club today.

"The board would like to record our gratitude for his work and express our disappointment that the relationship has ended so early."

Chelsea announced that they have parted company with Andre Villas-Boas after a string of poor results, with his assistant Roberto Di Matteo set to take charge until the end of the season.

The Blues suffered a 1-0 away loss to West Bromwich Albion on Saturday, a result that leaves the club three points behind Arsenal who occupy the final Champions League position.

Despite making a solid start to the season, Chelsea have struggled of late and have only picked up three league wins in their last 12 games, while they are on the verge of a Champions League exit, trailing Napoli 3-1 after the first leg.

The west London club released a statement on their official website confirming the decision to remove the Portuguese trainer from his position.

"Andre Villas-Boas has parted company with Chelsea Football Club today.

"The board would like to record our gratitude for his work and express our disappointment that 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."

Di Matteo's first game as head coach will be the FA Cup replay against Birmingham City on Tuesday.

The question is.... where will he go next? Inter?

This is the best decision under the circumstances. Much as it is a loss of face for both AVB n Roman, it's far too apparent that this relationship is already a lost cause. The senior players are pretty much to be blamed. Not only do they totally ignore AVB, it was reported that whatever tactics he instruct his players leading up to a game, the senior players would made fun of his tactics by texting Jose Mourinho and he would then response accordingly to mock AVB. The younger players who are committed to AVB get pretty demoralised with the actions of these senior players. These senior players include three English internationals ie John Terry, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole. With players of such attitude in the English squad, little wonder that England consistently fail miserably in big tournaments.

Ahem. Messi.

In games with slim margin victory eg 1-0, 2-1. Most of the time it's Messi who scored the winning goal.
