I have a hard time feeling very sorry for him. He has done a lot of stupid shit himself to get the team where it is now.
I think a manager more willing to play a system tailored to what he has at his disposal would be doing much better than AVB is doing right now.
Mourinho.
We'll take him back in a heartbeat!

If he gets to spend a shitload of money that is.

The move starts at 2:19, but you can't see the wings and he wasn't quite 10 yards out when the ball went in. Still awful though. bare in mind that his job was to stay in the middle and stop teams from playing through us
This has been shown to be a crock of shit. He is simply the best manager in the world.
Yup. Although we didn't score I think we did a better job than this.
mourinho's boys are decrepit, broken and worthless this season and probably for good

You remember the players he won CL with the first time right? It's only natural he has moved on to big clubs after that who are willing to spend whatever it takes.
"Here's a bit of news for you as we approach the full-time whistle in Naples. Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez has apologised for his recent conduct following his touchline row with manager Roberto Mancini in September. The 28-year-old returned to the club last week, following a self-imposed, three-month exile in Argentina. "I wish to apologise sincerely and unreservedly to everybody I have let down and to whom my actions have caused offence," Tevez said in a statement. He has also withdrawn his appeal against the club's misconduct charge."
Looks like he's gonna get chucked straight back in then...

For Hulk and Moutinho. Malouda will personally drive AVB down on a bus. You can keep the bus, and shoot Malouda if you wish. Deal?

That's not entirely fair on our other players, there's not a lack of effort in any of them except for Carroll earlier on in the season, Downing throughout the season and Maxi on the odd occasion he plays. Chelsea have a team full of players who seem like they couldn't care less, we have a team full of players who are simply incapable of either playing better or shooting properly

I hope you aren't talking about Madrid. I also hope you aren't talking about Chelsea as there really isn't that many left of his boys. Inter maybe? Yeah they are shit.

Completely at odds with everything he's said in the past few months. Tevez is an absolute disgrace to football.
He would have this same Chelsea team out there at the moment, defensively organised, working as a solid unit with solid tactics. At the very least. Probably also means he would never have played Sturridge or Luiz.
From what I remember, we contained them much better. A lot of possession, they had very few chances. Unfortunately, as in the other loosing matches, the team let off steam and let the opposition counter-attack. You can't do that against Napoli.
As Mancini said, against Napoli you gotta focus 100% for 90 minutes.

Wow. I'm glad that guy is gone, he was useless just like many of Roy's signings.
Hulk + Pereira for AVB + 80mil.

Yeah obviously some of his decisions have been questionable to say the least, I still can't help but feel sorry for him though. He's inherited a squad that is really showing its age this season and people seem to be unwilling to give the guy a chance to build his own squad. I'm sure (If) he hangs on to next season he will do a much better job.
It must be frustrating for him to try and get it right when NOTHING he tries seems to yield any results.
Full quote:
Carlos said, I wish to apologise sincerely and unreservedly to everybody I have let down and to whom my actions over the last few months have caused offence. My wish is to concentrate on playing football for Manchester City Football Club.
Still not sure if want.

That's what you get for not playing safe after 2-1, they're lucky they only took one more goal.
All for the title.

I think Napoli will pay for not pushing on after the Cole block. That was their chance to put 3 goals between them. Can see Chelsea quite easily winning 2-0 at Stamford Bridge
West Ham have no played 2 x Arsenal keepers this season.
Almunia got game time as an emergency loan and now Lansbury.
(Apparently Lansbury has played in goal for the England u21s at some stage. Bizarre)

I was referring to the few games we had this season where our performance was dire overall, bar Suarez. Such as: Swansea, QPR, Fulham, and Wigan.
Your club is festooned with mercenary footballers who are only there for the money. You're not sure if you want one of the better one's returning? Do you realise the irony of your post as an Arabia supporter?
WHAT? So his career as a golfer is over already?

chelsea are fucking stupid. they should have been satisfied at 1-2, that is not a bad result at the san paolo at all. instead, they have to score two goals without conceding now.
they are really lucky it finished 3-1 . . . napoli should have had a couple of more goals.

A Chelsea clean sheet? Maybe if they draft in Agger and Skrtel.
Wtf are you taking about?
