chelsea has stars but no team...all they do is hunting names. i think that was a big mistake, they are still in the championsleague and who knows what might happen with a new coach. they should of kept him till end of season and meanwhile look for a new coach.
abramovich is tryin to win the CL since he bought the club. i wonder what happen if chelsea doesnt win the CL in the next 2-3 years - either he invest another 500.000 million in players or he´ll give up and chelsea goes bankrupt.
Things will get worse so NO, maybe at the end of the season. But the manager who should be more under pressure is Arsene Wenger, 5th and in real danger to miss the Champions League next session.

I'm not convinced on this sacking. I think Chelsea collectivley had a poorer manager (Scolari) than they had a few seasons ago and with that a poorer team. Which for me leaves only one other person to blame. Abramovich, should have enough sense to realise this, at a very important time of the season, especially when there isn't a great deal of managerial talent to choose from (I wonder if Tony Adams has sent his CV in). Okay, so whether talented managers are available or not, it should'nt matter a single bit to Mr Money Man. But the Question is, are there any managers more talented that the one he fired a couple of seasons ago and if so will he give him the money to invest in a squad that really needs more investment. So, lets presume for Logical reasons that the greatest Manager in the world, Sir Alex, will not be moving to Stamford Bridge (I hate Man U, but lets be honest), How are Chelsea going to win the league this year, or next year?. Will they win the league again in the next 3-5 years. My answer is No, for as long as Abramovich is there and won't spend any money.
UNLESS. (I always get this in beacuse I am a Celtic fan) he gets the 2nd best manager in the world. Hail Hail King Martin O'neil

Chelsea had to win against Liverpool, cant lose twice for Liverpool in same season. But they did. And homedraw for Hull was just a xxtra reason to fire Scolari. Scolari was @ first place wrong choice as Chelsea coach. Scolari doesnt have a reputation coachin division teams. He's better as international team coach.

Posted by doomdy: Dutch Guus Hiddink going to coach chelsea. Is this right? It was on the news 1 hour ago
You are right and it is also a good new for me cause i was afraid, like newspapers said last summer, Abramovich was interested in Spalletti (as roma coach). I hope hiddink will work well, will win in Campions league against hunchbacked (as we call then in Italy) players and supporters of Juventus and will be Chelsea coach for Years

in my opinion that was really obvious, even in fact that he's such a good coach, but chelsea wasn't his team, so better luck next time and better luck to chelsea

this guy is one of the best if not the best coach in the world in my opinion. i followed his career for a long while and hes always been succesfull. the dutchys made a big mistake to fire him after 1998
