I am stunned at the firing of Jose Mourinho at Chelsea.  What are they thinking ?  In 3 years, Mourinho has won every domestic trophy including 2 English Premiership titles, but unfortunately could not bring home a Champions League title.  What more do you expect?  Yeah, Chelsea is off to a bad start, but my goodness…  Give Mourniho a break.  Hasn’t he earned that ?

Chelsea has spent in excess of $100 million to bring in world-class players and bring the club from average to one of the best in the world.  In 3 years, Chelsea has accomplished more than it ever has in its history.   When you are an owner who has spent that much money, you expect to win the Premiership and the Champions League every year.  Good luck trying to find another coach that achieve as much as Mourniho has in his 3+ years.

 Whats wrong with Chelsea?  Look no further than some their big name signings of Andriy Shevchenko and Michael Ballack the past 2 years.  I can understand the signing of a star striker like Shevchenko from AC Milan as Chelsea has desperately been looking for a complement up front to Drogba.  Unfortunately, for whatever reason, he has struggled to fit into Chelsea’s system and the style of play in the Premiership which is so much different than the slow and boring Seria A.    Ballack, I never understood this signing as Chelsea had plenty of talented midfielders. 
The super-talented Michael Essien was playing as a defender for most of last year to make room for Ballack in midfleid which is ridiculous!

 I can see Chelsea on its way back down to mediocrity in the Premiership and as an Arsenal fan, I could not be happier!!  Go Gunners!!!
