Avram Grant to return? He's the manager who's taken Chelsea closest to the Champions League (Abrahamovic's holy grail) and is available now.....
Who ever gets the job please only sign the deal for one year because so far since mourinho has only been a one year deal .
To me I think Mourinho is waiting on the Manchester United job role. I know him and Fergie have a very good relationship and it just seems like he is picking his moment for that opportunity. Could be wrong though.
Guus Hiddink I think will replace him. Would like Martin O'Niell
Yes Mourinho for the United job but Chelsea sacking Ancelotti is silly. I'm as far away from a Chelsea fan as u'll get but stripping the squad down to its bare bones before the season started knowing it was an 'old' squad was stupid. And the usual mainstays didn't have their best seasons - Cole, Terry, Lampard, Drogba, Essien. A busy summer as the Bridge I predict
I'd be surprised if Mourinho was let near Old Trafford. Certain influential figures at the club have strong views about him (eg Bobby Charlton) and don't want a 'messianic' PR manager who spends lots of money without having demonstrated any commitment to long term building and stability. Think the Mancs will be taking Moyes as their next manager.
As for Chelsea, unsurprising but totally retarded. Given the circumstances, Ancelotti's done a great job with the hand the owner dealt him. Will be interesting to see who they bring in.
Uh? Terry and Cole two of our best players this season. Lampard and Drogba have been two of the best when fit Lampard was unlucky to be kept out for so long with his injury and Drogba struggled with malaria. Yes to Essien though, he's been very disappointing since our bad slump in November - at the start it was looking like he was going to have a great season. But I think we need to keep hold of him, he's been a great player for us apart from this season and I'm sure he'll be back to his best next season (hopefully).
Sir Bobby is very strongly against it, and i agree with him.
Chelsea, well Roman is a moron to be frank. Not sure what he expects, not sure he even understands how the game works
Personally I think its been Cole's worst season to date. Terry too without the Carvalho/Alex legs beside him. Essien and Drogba obviously weren't fit but still. Even so the season after World Cups usually is **** for all the big teams hence the poor points total this year

Oh I agree I don't want Mourinho and the baggage that comes with him but he's probably the best bet to continue the trophy collection.
Roman's understanding of the game seems to be keep throwing money at it (ie Torres and Luiz) and it might fix itself. At least the Glazers keep their big noses out and leave the Man to sort it out
