Apparently that's about 8 managers in 9 years.

Soon it will get to the stage where no one wants to work for him.

Really. I was thinking this too but it could be a nice paycheck for a year, build up some more good connections and then move on to another pretty decent club.

Serious?

Who ever managers them next year will be one the highest paid in the world and be able to go out and buy whoever they want(Roman wants a clean out and players want to come to Chelsea). We still have a good nucleus of experienced players as well as a fair few talented kids coming through.

AVB stuffed up when he lost the players and he never got them back.

Joachim Löw is the strong rumour ATM.

Not quite.

7 in 12 years.

And if you go back another 12 years we went through 6 and the same if you went back another 12 years.

Roman isn't as bad as everyone makes out.

Claudio Ranieri, Jose Mourhino, Avram Grant, Luiz Felipe Scolari, Guus Hiddink, Carlo Ancelotti & Andres Villas-Boas.

Is he the guy who managed Germany at the World Cup in 2010?

Carlo Ancelotti

One of my favorite people in the sporting world ATM. I loved his press conferences after Premier League matches. If he liked the question he would answer in English but if he didnt like the question (What will you do about John Terry?) then he just pretended he couldnt understand what the journo was saying and moved onto the next question.

The very same.

As I recall 'Santo, Sam and Ed' got quite a lot of mileage out of his fashion choices for the Cup.

Shocking scenes last night of Fabrice Muamba collapsing apparently from a heart attack and the game being called off.

I was in bed listening to Talk Sport from the UK & it was really eerie. I can understand the players from both Bolton & Spurs not wanting to continue on after that, many of them were visibly shaken.

I think the medical staff from both clubs deserve high praise for the speed with which they acted, performing mouth to mouth & having to use a defibrillator on the pitch.

The last I heard Fabrice Muamba was described as 'critically ill' in Intensive Care.

Here is some footage: Link

Looks like a massive clean out coming Chelsea's way with the likelihood of us missing the top 4. Feels like the end of an era with names like Drogba, Essien, Lampard, Cole and Malouda possibly being gone by the start of next season.

How long will Liverpool keep Dalgleish?
The results have been terrible and his signings even worse.

Luis Suárez once again showed how much of a disgrace he is too.
