Andre Villas-Boas has "parted company'' with Chelsea. Roberto Di Matteo is appointed interim manager until the end of the season.

No, it's not a surprise but it's still ridiculous.

How is anyone supposed to do anything in 6 months?

If they're appointing someone till the end of the season i'd imagine they'll be hoping to get Mourinho back. How is he doing at Madrid? if he's not likely to win the league there this year i can see him getting binned by them.

Terrible decision. What's the point in sacking him? Give him a couple of years and see hoe he does, it's not like Chelsea are in danger of being relegated so why do they need to sack him so prematurely?

Real Madrid 7 points ahead of Barcelona with a game in hand but Jose not liking it there and has said that he will probably leave in the Summer 2012! :agree:

He's leaving at the end of the season. Wouldn't be surprised if they appointed someone as interim until the end of the season then appoint Mourinho :agree:

Always came across well in interviews but never seemed to have the backing of the players, would be no surprise to see Mourinho back for next season.

Nae great sympathy here, the boy will get a huge pay-off for being a relative failure whilst he was there.

It's a results business football. Chelsea have had some awful results this season. Had to go.

It'll be closing in on £40M+ in managerial aquisitions and pay-offs - ridiculous

He's proven how good he is at Porto. Reminds me a bit of the Le Guen situation; undoubtedly top tactician unable to change british dressing room culture.

the john terry, ashley cole & frank lampard trio strike again.

the sooner this lot are out of stamford bridge the better. ageing pro's that think they know too much. are they involved in hiring/sacking process. the sooner roman gives authority back to the manager the more success chelsea will have!!!

Agreed, if those three didn't back AVB, and to all and sundry it seems that they didn't, then they should have been put in their place. It seems they never were, so it's likely AVB has never been seen to have true authority over the squad from day one.

If I was taking that job it'd be on the condition that the three of them were punted immediately.

the management team of Terry, Cole & Lampard are due to be interviewed for the now vacant Chelsea job with Drogba director of football!!!

Don't suppose any club will ever be brave enough to stick with a manager like Man U did with Fergie. There could be a lesson there.

With amount of money Abramovic spent sacking Ancelloti and signing AVB from Porto then sacking him he could have bought Rangers - twice over :wink:

Typical Chelsea. Expect to win everything every season or the manager is sacked.

It's strange, given the signings that have been made (and a number of them supposedly not the choices of AVB), he was clearly brought in to rebuild an ageing side. Now, while results haven't been great, he's had to face being undermined by the group of old players he was brought in to phase out.

Why then side with the old guard against the guy you brought in to get rid of them? It makes little sense.

That Chelsea dressing room needs a boot up the erse.

How many managers is that they've forced out? Grant, Scolari, Villas-Boas.

How is he doing at Madrid? if he's not likely to win the league there this year i can see him getting binned by them. Real are walking La Liga. Jose will still be off though. Can't see it being to Chelsea. Whats the odds of him turning up as the next England manager? As for AVB, 9 million ain't bad for 6 months work is it. And he'll have the added bonus of getting the Inter job in a rew weeks.

no surprise he is gone but revamping the chelsea team wont happen overnight, think roman has been a bit hasty considering he paid out 13m in compo to porto just to get him in :rolleyes: guus hiddink still out of work?

Until Lampard and Terry are away from Chelsea, this sort of thing will happen. No player should have the ear of the owner or chairman. They need to give a manager time to 'renew' that team.

Nope, was appointed to that mega-rich Russian club a few weeks ago.

Exactly. Players like Drogba, Terry, Lampard, Cole and Cech have far too much sway at Chelsea.

As I said above not the first time this has happened. Senior players are exactly that- players. No more, no less.

Just his £8m p.a. wages to take into account.

It's exactly one week since he was quoted in the Papers as saying that he didn't care if he didn't have the backing of the players, that he would be able to carry on and do his job anyway. I thought then it wouldn't be long before he was proven wrong and pushed out, I just didn't imagine it would be so soon.

Will pretty much be the same at City, just watch if they don't win (buy) the League this season!
