Question is with the payoff to Scolari and lack of available funds to buy in the transfer window has the Ruski finally hit a brick wall and are they enough funds to pay even Tony Adams a salary.

Oh boy..

Hiddink has already turned the job down 2x so he's not going to take it now (not interested in club footie according to him).

lol@ Zola...yeah kill of the career of another promising young manager. I hope for Zola that he doesn't take itwhen offered. Chelsea is a poisoned chalice now...you either win everything every season or you're out.

They lost to all their rivals' and also couldn't beat Hull at home and they scored a last minute winner against Stoke at home.

not too surprised really. if avram grant didnt do enough to keep his job then scolari certainly didnt. chelsea have not been playing well since a nice run at the beginning of the season - they are looking weak at the back which they never did under mourinho or grant, and recently have really struggled to score too. where man u seem to rip through teams (which i hate to see) chelsea have been struggling


Title: Re: Scolari gone!
Post by: kinboshi on February 09, 2009, 07:20:42 PM
Hiddink's agent has said that he's not interested in the job and wants to stay as the Russian coach and see them into the world cup. He also said that Abramovich wouldn't want to take away such a good manager from the Russian national side and upset his fellow countrymen - and so that's another reason he won't got to Chelsea.

So expect Hiddink to be the new Chelsea manager come the weekend.

this...and he will probably go to ManU when Fergie leaves...he's not nuts enough to screw that up by going to an unstable club like Chelsea.
but, if the rumours start he could become the bookies favourite over night and you can lay him off then :)

yes i do think he woyld do better than those two you mentioned. it will also please the fans and he will be given much more time than scolari because of that.
its not all about zola it will mean steve clark will return and hes the man that made mourinho tick


Title: Re: Scolari gone!
Post by: Rooky9 on February 09, 2009, 08:28:59 PM
This is pretty amusing. Chelsea come from the brink of collaspe to PL and CL challengers by spending squillians on footballers in their peak and about the same on unproven youth. They then stop that cycle by stopping spending and wonder why the team has gone kaput! Simply the best players are older still and the younger ones aren't good enough.

Now you want to sack a manager who has won the world cup (albeit with brazil) and ran well at euros, with someone who has less than 20 games as a proper manager (Zola) or with 1 (Clarke- he might have 2?!). Chelsea fans need a reality check, big time, the board probably more so. Re only issue with the board doing it is that it shows their whole plan as flawed.

I hope Zola gets it and fails.

i think zola would be allowed to grow with the job as he is a god at the bridge so the fans wouldn't get on his back like they have an outsidder like scolari

exactly they have been playing dire football and the normal solid defence has look shocking, john terrys colnfidence looks shot away

I don't know if Abramovich would give him that time...he seems to have become rather impatient in his quest for success....it's a shame cus I was actually starting to like Chelsea (Well, not Lampard and Terry obv but everybody else....well OK, Not Anelka either but the rest as a team)..If Abramovich isn't careful the team could implode now, I hope he is but I doubt it somehow.

have the fans been on scolari's back? if so i have missed it entirely (which is very possible)

When Chelsea fans ask for Zola as boss, they are asking because he was a good player, not because he is, or will be, a good manager.

Flawed thinking IMO.


Title: Re: Scolari gone!
Post by: Numpty Dumpty on February 09, 2009, 08:37:37 PM
although i dont disagree with the situation, it does seem to have come out of the blue. surely scolari must have played a large role in bringing in quaresma?

Get on Louis van gaal - still available at 20-1
A mate of mine lumped on Scolari to be next manager sacked heavily and told me that Van Gaal was already sorted to take over.
Torres cost his them over £60k when he got Adams the sack!


Title: Re: Scolari gone!
Post by: Josedinho on February 09, 2009, 09:27:33 PM
I think it will be Rijkaard. Can't imagine Roman wanting to pay anymore money out to get somebody in after paying Scolari off.

The rumour that wont go away in the recruitment world is that Man U are certain to go after Mourinho when Ferguson retires in just over 2 seasons.

Rijkaard would be there by now if they wanted him.

Hiddink is friends with Roman and will be there till the end of the season at least.

surely that would be the case with all managers then as they are all taken on on fixed term contracts, this one will just be shorter than most

I thought that they pay as long as it's not a caretaker appointment

Chelsea have confimed he is new Manager,why are they still betting and price drifting

Because they have specifically described him as a temporary coach until the end of the season.

Quote from: Betfair rules
Who will be appointed as the next first team manager of Chelsea FC? Individuals described by Chelsea FC as ‘caretaker’, ‘interim’, or similar will not constitute first team manager. This market will be settled using official information provided by Chelsea FC.

I'd say temporary falls under this description, but others may disagree, so, interestingly, Betfair now effectively have a market on semantics.

There was plenty matched at under 1.2 on Hiddink but that shot up when the official announcement came out.
