Yeah, just seen that. Was only a matter of time.

Just saw that myself.. DAMN.. that's too bad.. unfortunately, this will do nothing but help Chelsea as the players had lost all confidence in him.

Armor

Bad news for us. Would be just like Chelsea to start performing now that the players have had their say.

Pepe LeFrits

On the Beeb now.

squallkid

Who the fuck are they going to get now?

Benitez?

At this rate Wenger might end up coaching Chelsea a season or two from now

y va marquer

Benitez to take over?
Damn, they might find some form now.

Mirth

Shame.

USArsenal

Di Matteo to take over for now until they find a new manager.

Says on their webpage that Roberto Di Matteo has been appointed as caretaker until the end of the season.

squallkid

Well that's them fucked for 4th place then.

It's going to be a right manager merry go round come the Summer

If Wenger and Mourinho both leave their respective clubs and Inter want a new manager...

That would be AVB, Benitez, Wenger, Mourinho, Capello all possibly looking for jobs

With England, France, Chelsea, (possibly us and Madrid), Inter Milan, Spurs if Twitchy leaves, all looking for managers.

He was almost like Arsene's right hand man 🙁
Watch fat Frank and co run the show and give it everything from now to the end of the season.

Ricky1985

Can't believe they've sacked him already.The players should be ashamed of themselves. No class from the top down.

Mourinho in the summer?

y va marquer

He didn't stand a chance with that rotten nest of senior players in the dressing room.
Treacherous self interested bunch.

Rohit

Feel for him and doubt there is anyone that can turn it around at Chelsea.

It's almost as if the clique of players are living in an alternate reality where age doesn't matter.

squallkid

Why doesn't abrmaovich put himself to manage the club?

Or make Terry the manager with Lampard as assistant manager?

Basically what it is now seeing as those two have so much power over the club.

I don't see why everybody assumes they'll just pick form having lost their coach? just as there's a possibility they'll "unite", they also have an excuse for their failings - guilty found and executed. It could go better, but it could go even worse.

I am Arsenal Till I Die

I hope they get Rafa in the summer.
