The thing is though who is actually deciding which players to bring in ? Let's be honest, Sheva is never going to cut it in the Prem. If you take the decision making away from the Manager then that can only be bad I feel... And you wonder if Mourinho said enough is enough in the end.

Hi all.
Ronaldinho will not be what was...
Please acquire it...
Kind Regards

It's a pity really because the Premiership is going to be even more boring now with only three top teams, as the fall out at Chelsea distracts players away from the game.
There is no way Grant will be able to motivate that team like Morineo did he just hasn't got it. What is even worse is that our rich Russian friend could well ruin Chelsea as a club because he thinks he knows best, I wonder how long Grant will last when Chelsea start losing games they should win, I think Grant won't last the season, or at least won't be there for the start of next season
Anything please than Man.Ure winning the title having to listen to those Man.Ure fans going on and on its enough to put you off football all together.

Whats the problem guys?

Chelsea were already rooted when bates sold them for what - one quid? to the Russian?

To Abramovich who just wanted to play football manager with his billions

After he signed the cheque he played the game - buy players - pick the team - under the first bloke which he sacked.

He gave Jose the job to win a few things and sadly he couldn't understand Jose brillant managment skills - but still stuck his nose in and got in ballack/lenko to unbalance the team

so Jose for England

And now he can take Chelsea down to 10th - So whats the problem?
