The EPL has grown so much more competitive nowadays. On a said given day any team can win the honours. We saw it when after a unbeaten streak of 27-28 games, Man Utd lost to last placed WOlverhampton. Having said this my respect for Sir Alex Ferguson increases each year. From 1986 to 2011 he is still in the most volatile seat in Football unmovable like a Mountain. Hats off Sir Alex!!!

ridiculous...man u seriously are new to the footballing terms.. For the record consider the following stats...Spanish league has only 2 teams playing..Madrid and Barca..the difference between the points of the 2nd team and the 3rd is avg 20 POINTS...in the past and the trend continued even in this season...where's the competition in Spanish League.?? Even with goal scorers Ronaldo scored 38 odd goals and Messi 31 odd...and the 3rd highest scorer is David Villa with just 18goals..where is the competition.. & Further, Steve Mcmahon (mostly u won't even know him) he once said if Barca played quality teams on a regualr basis like those in EPl then even STOKE CITY can beat them... hope u understand the lack of competition in Spanish League from the above...
a 3rd division Spanish team beating ManUTd, Che and Ars...keep it in your dreams..!!
no offences dude...but the above are facts...try google if u don't believe...
Off-late ppl follow Spanish league...but its only coz of Ronaldo and Messi...no1 else plays in that league...as proved by the stats above..!!

so, after appointing new manager if they wont win UCL, roman ab will sack the new manager? very crazy decision to sack ancelotti after winning the double in his first year..a team cannot win trophies every year..u have to be patient and give some time to form a good team..but ya roman ab doesnt know the meaning of patience..he has sacked 5 or 6 managers once he bought chelsea..and they r yet to win UCL..and this will continue..i am pretty sure about that..

Problem with Abrahamovich is he interferes too much into Chelsea affairs. Yes he is the owner and has the right to make decisions but that has to be off the field. On field its better to make the Manager call the shots. If he continues this I guess another 10 years will pass with Managers coming in and out of Chelsea and the UCL crown eluding them.

problem with Roman is he takes decisions to buy players like Torres, the manager is in a tough situation and has to leave Drogba on the bench which is a delight for any team playing against Chelsea. Hence if he has to win the Champions league he will need to get a manager like Jose back who is a strong personality.
