Chelsea
this morning fired its coach just a day after another
loss in the Champions League. Full statement on Roberto Di Matteo's
departure below...
Chelsea Football Club has parted company this morning with Manager Roberto Di Matteo.
The team's recent performances and results have not been good enough
and the owner and the Board felt that a change was necessary now to keep
the club moving in the right direction as we head into a vitally
important part of the season.
More after the cut..
The club faces a difficult task ahead in qualifying for the knockout
stages of the UEFA Champions League as well as maintaining a strong
challenge for the top of the Premier League while competing in three
other cup competitions. Our aim is to remain as competitive as possible
and challenge strongly on all fronts.
The owner and the Board would like to thank Roberto for all he has
done for the club since taking over in March. Roberto helped guide us to
an historic Champions League victory and a seventh FA Cup. We will
never forget the huge contribution he has made to this club's history
and he will always be welcome at Stamford Bridge.
The club will be making an announcement shortly regarding a new first team manager.
Is this not the same coach that helped them win the Champions league
last season? This Roman Abramovich head no correct sha. There are
rumours that Rafa Benitez is being lined up to replace Roberto Di Matteo
at Chelsea. Do you support the sack?
