TweetAnother year, another sacked manager, and that elusive search for a Champions League title

This weekend Villas-Boas played it safe. Restoring relics of the Mourinho era to the starting
line-up, who, in the form of Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard, played a vital part in brushing a
tame Bolton aside. Perhaps, in hindsight, this should have been something the 34 year old manager
should have done from the start.

decision to bar Nicolas Anelka from the club's Christmas dinner. The growing unrest and souring
relations at Chelsea sunk to new depths over the New Years weekend when under-fire coach Andre
Villas-Boas barred departing striker Nicolas Anelka from the club's Christmas [.
Chelsea's rogue owner, Roman Abramovich, has historically shown no mercy to his managers when
results don't meet his satisfaction. Names like Avram Grant, Luis Felipe Scolari and even the self
proclaimed special one, Jose Mourinho have all fell prey to the wrath of the ambitious owner. With
hard losses to Arsenal, Liverpool, and Bayern Leverkusen, [.

to drag the Blues out of their slump. The Blues crashed to a 2-1 defeat at home to rivals Liverpool

Villas-Boas.
Mired in an ugly and equally damaging episode of racist allegations, Chelsea defender John Terry is
a man needing to turn sour headlines into positive performances starting with Sunday's match with
Liverpool. All this is happening while Chelsea's form continues to be patchy and Terry's
performance at the heart of the Blues defence in recent [.
The ‘next big thing' is no more than a marketing term at Chelsea for a product that, more often

so [...] Related posts:

boss.

Times in particular reporting that Jose Mourinho's former assistant is ready to leave the
Portuguese champions and follow in the ‘Special One's' footsteps and sign for Chelsea.
Filling José Mourinho's shoes is a mean feat, but the man in the Porto hot-seat might
be the right man to at least challenge him...
