Other than the money he chunks at his team, Roman Abramovich is a horrible, short-sighted owner. I think AVB could have been great without the "old guard" constantly undermining him. The goal when AVB was hired was to revamp Chelsea; surely those higher up had to know there would be a mildly lean period while things were changing. Also, for all the money Abramovich has thrown at his team over the years, he barely gave AVB any financial backing to lure the kind of players key to his new coach's methods.

I'm not a Chelsea fan-- but I was excited to see what Andre Villas-Boas would do in the Premier League. It's a shame he got his chance at Chelsea.

Actually, to his credit, I think Roman was trying really hard to keep AVB. The Roman of last year wouldn't have batted an eye, but he tried to make AVB last, but losing to WBA was the final straw that broke the camel's back. The fragmentation in the team is ridiculous. If Roman were truly thinking it was a rebuilding year, he would have wiped out the old guard and given AVB lots and lots of cash to completely retool the club in his image.

BTW, Ox is a fvcking stud tonight.

phelan · 03-06-2012, 03:36 PM

dude everybody could be a stud against AC Milan's left back . who the f*ck is that? joke defending all game long!

Jon@AAMComp · 03-06-2012, 04:04 PM

Left back has been such a problem position for Milan ever since Maldini retired. Normally Antonini plays at left back, but it looks like they have Mesbah in at LB. Milan might be able to use the experience of Zambrotta at LB, even though he's normally a centre half.

Careful though, if Milan score, Arsenal need 6 to get through...

Red370 · 03-06-2012, 04:17 PM

why do you take off ox?????
