They did it quick too. Maybe Rijkaard is coming in?

I can understand the sacking but he really didn't do much wrong. He got the team out of the hole they put themselves in at the beginning of the season and he put them in the CL final.

Grant was good. I'd like to know what he said in his speech to Chelsea after the CL loss.

damn he did a pretty decent job too pulling all those points back in the last few months even surpassing Arsenal. i think if they gave him another season he could get at least 1 cup or premiership.

would be interesting to see who fills his place. Maybe someone who can smile for once or look happy  :dontknow:

Grant Sucked IMO! I hope Mourinho comes back(Not gonna happen though   :bang: )
A trophyless season. So what if he got Chelsea into CL,BPL Runner up,So what if he lost only 6-7 games. A trophyless season isn't what anyone would like.

he did a good job considering where chelsea were at when mourinho left and mourinho never managed to get to the CL final with chelsea but somehow managed with porto  :dontknow:

When ever is see an interesting gif any where on other sites or on Google images I save them and use them at appropriate times.

Or just search for gifs on google. You sometimes find pages full of gifs. I prefer gifs because all our current smiles are rather dull.

A few of you sound like he shouldn't have got sacked? Granted, he did a decent job steering them to 2 finals and 2nd place. However, he had 3 big games; The Champions League Final, Carling Cup and last day of the season, and he lost out in all of them. For a club like Chelsea, they just will not put up with that. They are such a rich, powerful club now that they expect the best. Grant was good, but when it came down to it, he was a loser.

quality post johnny  :cheers:

yeah I think Grant didn't do as good of a job as he could have. But ultimately, it comes down to the players. I hate it when clubs blame their coaches and not their players. The CL loss wasn't Grant's fault...Terry slipped on a penalty

Very True,And that was just a stroke of bad luck.

Grant Sacked this will only make me like Chelsea more next Ben Hian and Abromovic
Title: Re: Grant sacked
Post by: moby on May 25, 2008, 07:55: PM
abramovic streches in muscles. how will go next? maybe tito?

adi may be right. rickard needs a job now.

Post by: Buckwheat156 on May 26, 2008, 01:11: AM
i think this is kind of stupid just because of abroma-bitch. on one hand he helped chelsea finish 2nd in three competitions. but like Morinho said second is still trophyless (poor John Terry)

on the other hand Chelsea have so many stars that any decent manager could have done the same (though beating Manchester United and controling them in the second half of the CL final means he has decent half time team talks)

whats next for chelsea??? relegation? or a wild fan kills ambromabitch for being so stupid? either way im happy

I vote for Rijkaard

Post by: david on May 26, 2008, 04:54: AM
however Mourinho was worse than Grant

Post by: Aquaman on May 26, 2008, 06:32: AM
Grant was a great coach for chelsea, better than mourinho, and the fact that a coach is fired and one of the principal reasons is that the team under the management of that coach lost a final in PENALTYS is friking retarded, but im shoore many other teams will be interested in him......
i think a Un-known is gonna be the next coach, i dont think it will be any celebrity coach like rijkaard or anyone like him, and i think it will be someone young, like 40-50

Mourinho was being his usual self the other day. He was bragging how the team always won 2 trophies per season while he was there. :biggrin:

well its not a lie is it :biggrin:
Title: Re: Grant sacked
Post by: ElDiablo© on May 27, 2008, 01:56: AM
Lol  :biggrin: I think we need a change,No Rijkaard,No Mourinho,Lets get someone new,Take Grant for example,I had never heard his name before,And now,He got us to a CL Final for the first time in club history,Lets get someone like Grant, " The Strange One "
Title: Re: Grant sacked

No I disagree. Big club like Chelsea needs big name coach, big name players. Russian money, privet sky boxes, Cuban cigars and strippers is what its all about.

Grant was a great coach for chelsea, better than mourinho,

Two League Titles in a row. First one for Chelsea in a billion years. And then two other trophies. A Champions League final appearance is not better than that.

chelsea needs a man who can manage the relationships between big players
Title: Re: Grant sacked
Post by: Tito on May 30, 2008, 12:48: PM
specially people like Drogba (if he stays) and Ballack

its up to the players to do that...they're grown men

its not all about the big name coaches. no one heard of wenger before he came same with ferguson and grant. put the best manager in for the job.
