Abramovich should freeze all these players first and see whether the dressing room is better. If it is not better, then he can sack AVB. The next manager will still have problems with these arrogant old guards and Abramovich should not give any of them a future as they have take their interest first instead of those of Chelsea.

Abramovich should have allowed AVB to change the whole team.

Chelsea and sacker Mr. Abramovich are both wrong, it takes time to build a team and most of all it is the players that plays on the football pitch, why must all the blame go to the Manager alone?

Aging players like Lampard, Terry and the likes in the current Chelsea team are too arrogant and thinks too highly of themselves and is living in past glories.

If they are true Chelsea supporters themselves, they should engage the blueprint for the rejuvenation of the team over a longer horizon. There's a few "Senior" Chelsea players still on the sidelines of the England team and looking at the results of the National team, i'm not surprised that AVB ended up with the same fate like the England Manager.

Beware the hidden hand whichever new manager that jumps in the line of fire.

Nontheless, Mr.Abramovich do pay generously i believe.

So, do i see any hands?
