Scolari sacked - Hiddink on way

Didn't think it'd be too long before this happened

:giggle:

Chelsea have sacked Luiz Felipe Scolari with immediate effect.

The Brazilian only took charge at Stamford Bridge in the summer and after a promising start the club have slipped to fourth in the table, seven points adrift of Manchester United.

Saturday's 0-0 draw at home to Hull City proved to be the final straw for the World Cup winner and the Stamford Bridge outfit have now confirmed his departure.

A statement on the club's official website read: "Luiz Felipe Scolari has been dismissed as manager of Chelsea Football Club today (Monday) with immediate effect.

"The Chelsea board would like to place on record our gratitude for his time as manager.

Sadness

"Felipe has brought many positives to the club since he joined and we all feel a sense of sadness that our relationship has ended so soon.

"Unfortunately the results and performances of the team appeared to be deteriorating at a key time in the season.

"In order to maintain a challenge for the trophies we are still competing for we felt the only option was to make the change now.

"The search for a new manager has already started and we hope to have someone in place as soon as possible.

"While that continues assistant coach Ray Wilkins will take charge of the team on a temporary basis."

Thank you.

It's a myth. He does speak English.

Not sure about this at all. I keep saying shite pundits saying "He's succesful at both club and country". No he isn't. What's he achieved at club level? **** all.

Can see this going tits up for them. Hopefully.

Haha Chelsea have a couple of brilliant years and their fans now want them to be world beaters. They have been poor this season but I'm just going to enjoy their misfortune for a while.

Who'd support a club like that!!? :whistle:

We had a genuine reason for getting rid of some of ours. Mourinho, Grant, Scolari were all bad? Not sure about that.
