Is AVB a fool or a revolutionist?

Looking at the team and the amount of experienced players left out, like Cole, Lampard and Torres, is AVB a fool to play the 'Big I am' or is he now getting a grip of Chelsea and playing his own game?

Personally, I think he's getting to grips and has been given a mandate to get rid of all the overpaid ex-Chelsea stalwarts. The likes of Terry, Lampard, Essien et al are costing Roman a fortune and he needs to trim the fat.

Is this right or is AVB doing the tight-rope act?

Come on Chelsea!

Cavani's movement is out of this world.

lucky bastards

Chelsea's physio woman is fit as fuck.

Sign her up bob.

yeah and cavanni and lavezzi

That man is a real fox in the box!!!

Don't know about those two, but Chelsea have just had a really poor last 15 mins to the first half. Switched off completely and shocking defending

Lavezzi is so so good considering i dont think they have a chance of winning the cl or qualifying next year and wont win serie A, I hope Bob makes a move in the summer when tevez leaves

It's all Ashley cole's fault. AVB had a master stroke leaving him out and then, after being forced to bring him on, it's all gone too piss.

SACKED IN THE MORNING, SACKED IN THE MOOOORNIIIING. Hopefully. Would be fun to see them carry on the downward spiral and see who is next in line for the carousel that is chelsea.

Been revising but I've enjoyed the game. This game reminds me much as ours but shitter. We looked good but got beat by the speed, no differenve here. Chelsea need to speed it up and they looked strong when they wanted it. Take the lead and they've made the same mistake.

Still, come on the English.

We need to go all out to try and sign Cavani and Lavezzi this summer - excellent forwards who would take us to another level

Lavezzi - YES.
Cavani - NO THANKS.

what a great play by Cavani....

man Luiz is bad

hahah, make it 4!

Chelsea are in shambles. No organization, no real leadership. AVB must be sacked soon if Chelsea have any hope of finishing in the top 4. Thank god we didn't buy Cahill, looks like a shit Savic (and is 5 years older).

I think it's a tad ridiculous that the manager gets blamed for everything when the team is doing poorly.
Drogba, their best forward left for ACON, and didnt have a goal scorer in Torres. Then, the Luiz purchase has
cost AVB/Chelsea alot. Essien has been injured. Terry and Lamps have been injured. Ramires went out for awhile.

I dont see how Roman thinks any manager can come in right away and win it...they need time. At the rate
Roman is going at no manager is gonna win the Prem or CL at Chelsea unless they buy the Barca starting 11.

The thing is they need a big change in their attitude and belief (it looks completely gone) and the best way to do that is to change managers. The players no longer believe in him and his tactics are shit. They might have worked with the players he had at Porto, but Chelsea are continually caught out trying to play a high line with players who aren't good/smart/fast enough to do so.

AVB needs to just quit Chelsea. Its getting embarrassing.
