Guest Stephen927 Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Was never going to last in the job, even if they had won the Champions League. If they have sacked him because he lost the CL Final, then it's harsh to say the least. So they signed Bosingwa for stupid money, without their new manager, assuming Grant was going to go anyways.

Robster Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Another pathetic decision from the chelsea board. smacks of ranieri again, but then look what happened after he left. just like at man city you would have to be insane to walk in there, money always talks though. Maybe mancini can sell up his newcastle home and settle in london. WTF??? who the hell is Avram Grant??!!.he was the manager of Chelsea just because he is a good friend of Roman and not because professional reason Shouldnt hired as Chelsea manager at all Therefore its his boss who seriously needs to look at himself but of course it couldnt be his fault could it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 If John Terry could convert a penalty he'd still have a job. FACT! Damn rain! Didn't see anyone else unable to deal with the condition of the pitch. Loads of them did during the match tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stephen927 Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Ivanovic hasn't even made an appearance for them has he? Correct. Hasn't been matchfit apparently, and would have a hard job displacing Terry and Carvalho anyways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzzieMandias Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 It's a shame, really, that they didn't feel they had to stick with Grant, as I don't think he'd be the ideal manager for the rebuilding job Chelsea now have to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern footballers seem more bothered about how their boots look anyway rather than whether they actually support their feet and give good grip. I agree. Also think Terry has got too much sympathy for missing this pen, he clearly didn't give it any thought, similar to when Beckham blazed that one miles over against Turkey. I can understand people slipping during a game, when they have to react to situations and change direction quickly, but it's barely acceptable when they've got complete control of the situation and how to approach the ball.

I reckon he was just thinking about it too much, to stop himself from falling or messing it up. It's like when you're drunk and you over concentrate on how you walk and you end up going all over the place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that quality squad anyone involved in managerial football could have acheived what he did. One of the stupidest things i've ever read. Sad to see someone who did a good job get sacked but thats football these days, ruthless as fuck. As for who will replace him, my guess is Mancini.............. who will fail miserabley.

Optimistic Nut Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Just a question really to anyone who says you can't be a big or successful club without trophies. This season, who has been better, Chelsea, or Portsmouth & Spurs? Fact is, just like us in 1995-7, take away Man Utd and no-one else has been better.

Yet I bet a good number of their fans, would swap seasons, if they were being honest, certainly Spurs fans. Maybes that says more about the modern game mind.
