Have you ever been having a laugh with someone on the forums or anything and then another poster obviously picks up on this and mails you with the intention of putting you off??
Sounds really devious but i know it happens...ever happened to you??
Seriously mate you talk absolute nonsense!! It was his system, he's the manager, when he was appointed he has to give the owners a plan and also his system of football, they agreed to it and hired him. If they don't or can't play in that system then they're gone, simple as that!! The owner bottled it and took the players side over the manager, any manager will be mad to take that job on..discussion over as far as i'm concerned!!
You do know hat Di Matteo was his assistant and didn't just come in and do a job?? AVB was said to be insulted that their Technical Director demanded an explanation after his team selection against Napoli, if it was me i would have walked!! He had a plan and these plans don't happen in 1 season, Chelsea are a joke the way they treat their managers, they're just puppets on strings!!
You say it as if it's the easiest thing in the world, to get rid of players you need new players willing to come in to replace them and also need them sanctioned by the club, he never got the chance to that, they were thinking it was gonna be like Mourinho, come in and change things straight away and be challenging for the league..

Nope, i'd never keep a player as cover, he's not a sub keeper, he deserves first team football somewhere else and not just sit on the bench at Liverpool waiting for someone to get injured.
He has one of the best attitudes in football, unfortunately just hasn't got the ability or pace to match it, great servant to the club but his time is up!!
The Chelsea old guard didn't want change and if he was still there now i guarantee he would have got rid of most of them, Lampard, Drogba, Cole, Bosingwa, Kalou etc. and would have started a new era at the club...until the likes of them leave Chelsea they'll never move forward as a club, it's very hard to get tactics right when your players don't wanna play in that system!!
If AVB comes in then Carragher and Kuyt are definitely gone along with many others...i welcome any manager to come in and put his own stamp on the team, i just hope it's the right man!!
The big difference in all of that is Purple Nose, when things were against him he always had the backing of the club and the owners and there was never a knee jerked reaction to a small problem of not winning the league...that's all gonna change in maybe 2 seasons...the days of managers staying for 10+ seasons are long gone!!
The other difference is the spending, Roman is a peasant compared to these Arabs (not just one Arab either)they love football and after winning their first league title they're gonna want more and more..have you ever researched how much money they have and how much they actually earn?? If not then you really should..the Glaziers are window fitters as far as these lads are concerned
The club were falling apart, 4 points from relegation and not a trophy in 6 years before he was approached and asked to assume the role after Woy, he did great and got rid of most of the dead wood that was there..i've said it many times that these things don't happen over night and it's gonna take a long time to get things right, probably longer now
You are all mad to think Henry and the owners won't get rid of Kenny if they don't think he's the right man for the job..they're a ruthless bunch and are destined for success, winning a trophy in your first season isn't easy and just shows that there is potential there, just need consistency and that will come with time..everyone is waiting for a miracle, i said it already that it'll be 2 or 3 seasons before they're competing for Champions League....i also said City will win the league before a ball was even kicked
Competition..
Says a lot about the people in fairness
