It was the night after Manchester United's defeat to Manchester City. Villas-Boas's side were beaten 0-0 at Bolton Wanderers by a congratulatory call from their immediate boss Mr Roman Abramovich just an hour after the game ended. He congratulated the team on their victory in this match. Congratulations to the team on closing the gap on their rivals Manchester United in the league table, and invited Villas-Boas to join him for lunch on his private yacht at noon the next day, and to have afternoon tea with him if he still has time.

Before ending the call, the Russian Monopoly asked in passing how likely it was for Chelsea to win the Double this season......

Chelsea closed the gap on points to Manchester United and Manchester City and made the headlines the day after the Chelsea game. Villas-Boas told the media that he was going to try to win the title this season, and next to his remarks in this interview was a photo of Ferguson blushing at his post-match press conference.

The English media have always handled this kind of thing very well, and readers can see at a glance the relationship and the story behind it.

In the eyes of the English media, Boas shouted the slogan of the double at this time, which shows that Boas is now under great pressure - it seems that the Russian rich are putting pressure on Boas again. Chelsea's managerial position is not so easy to sit in.

Manchester United lost the Manchester derby, Chelsea won a team like Bolton, which actually gave Boas, who is currently more than a dozen points away from the leader Manchester City, shouting the slogan of the double, which is really a bit 'self-defeating', so the media asserted that Boas is already a little crazy to keep his position.

The media's remarks were finally verified in early March 2012.

At this time, Manchester City's golden body in the league has been broken, but they are still the league leaders. It's just that the lead was chased back by Manchester United. As Ferguson had predicted, Manchester City had the strength to play on two fronts, but lacked more experience in playing on two fronts.

For example, in the 27th round of the league just past, Mancini used rotation in order to prepare for the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, but the entire lineup was incomprehensible, and finally had to send Yang Fan as a substitute, with Yang Fan's pass and shot, he helped Manchester City win Bolton 2-0 and kept the lead in the standings without being narrowed.

Three months ago, Manchester City won the first leg of the Manchester derby, Chelsea beat Bolton, and Villas-Boas let go of his satellites to win the Double.

Three months later, in the 27th round of the league, Manchester City met Bolton Wanderers and won by two goals, which was not an easy win, while Chelsea lost to West Bromwich Albion in this round of the league.

Chelsea lost 1-0 to West Brom yesterday at the Hawthorn Stadium and dropped to fifth, three points behind Arsenal. After the game, some fans wrote to Chelsea owner Abou, asking for the sacking of Villas-Boas. The letter reads: 'Dear Mr. Abou: I'm sure you share our sentiments about Chelsea's miserable performance against West Bromwich Albion. At this point, I beg you to fire Villas-Boas as soon as possible, we can't bear his performances at Chelsea, humiliation and torture, it is clearly a living history of blood and tears, let him go, at least he can retain the last dignity of a man. ”

The Russian has been in charge of Chelsea for nine years, has fired six managers and paid £66.1 million in compensation alone, but the results of the change of manager have not been good. For Villas-Boas, a 13-25 defeat to West Brom with shots on goal and 2-7 shots on target is unjustifiable, and the 46-point record from 27 rounds is also Chelsea's worst record since 2001/2002.

Less than 24 hours after the defeat to West Bromwich Albion, Villas-Boas' Chelsea spell was over. Eight months ago, Abou spent £13.3 million on Boas's arrival, and now he will also spend a large sum to pay the Portuguese for his early dismissal.

Villas-Boas has become a thing of the past for Chelsea and his departure could have Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard and others applauded. However, there is no shortage of players in the Chelsea squad who have a crush on him, with Spain international Juan Mata taking to Twitter to see Villas-Boas off after a consistent high level of performances under the young manager's hands this season. 'It wasn't going to be an easy day for those who were at Chelsea, like me. I want to thank him and wish him the best of luck, we have to work hard, good times will come eventually, I have to thank you for your support. Mata's statement revealed a reluctance to love Villas-Boas, and it is believed that players who think the same way should include David Luiz, Ramirez, Romeu and others, all of whom are highly regarded by Boas. However, the wood is already in the boat, and the Blues are destined to be history.

There are so many reasons why the new madman hasn't been able to succeed at Chelsea that many media outlets have taken stock of them. However, the Daily Mail revealed that until the last minute, Abdu still wanted to keep Boas, and the Russians made the decision to fire Boas after consulting a lot of opinions. At 1:15 p.m. local time last Sunday, Abu gathered all the players together and asked what they thought of Boas, and a considerable number of people told Abu about Boas's mistakes. A frustrated and nervous meeting of the club's board of directors then lasted two hours, something that has rarely been seen since Abou took charge of Chelsea. It was at this meeting that Chelsea's official decision was made that Villas-Boas would leave after playing 27 Premier League games in his side, with his assistant coach Roberto Di Matteo rushing in to take over the first team.

Boas knew about it when it happened, but there was nothing he could do about it. On Sunday morning, it rained lightly in London, while Villas-Boas continued to lead the team in training as usual, with Abu and his staff member Tenenbaum and the club's chief executive, Gullei, quietly watching the team that had lost in the last round. At that point, Villas-Boas had a vague premonition that his coaching career at Chelsea was about to come to an abrupt end, and sadly, he had even been working on a Japanese cushion at the training ground a few hours earlier, which was enough to show his commitment to his work. By 10 a.m., technical director Emenaro had received a private summons from Abu, who had gone to his private residence at the Cobham training base, where they had a two-hour conversation. The Daily Mail did not know what Emenaro had said to Abu, but an hour later, Abu held an emergency meeting of the board of directors, so it is not difficult to speculate that Emenaro may not be on Boas's side, and his views played a role as a catalyst for Abu's plan to fire the coach, and perhaps put Boas's cold gun in the back.

Objectively speaking, during Boas's tenure at Chelsea, there was no credit and hard work, and there was fatigue without hard work. In order to build a more youthful team, he dared to take many of the biggest names in the world, a kind of courage that his predecessor Carlo Ancelotti did not have. In addition, due to his dissatisfaction with the youth academy, after all, the reserve team has not been able to send good talent to the first team for a long time, so Boas has also had a dispute with the reserve team manager Dermot until he fell out completely, and he has also expelled all the reserve team players from the first team training ground. These things alone are enough to prove that Boas is a coach with ideas, determination and courage. However, he was wrong in not knowing exactly how deep the water was at Stamford Bridge. At the same time that Abramou was building the Blues empire, Stamford Bridge became a roaming ground for many top brokers, and there were many gangs within the club, and the emergence of such an environment led to the emergence of managerial power often being hollowed out.

In recent years, whether it is team building or transfer operations, Abbu has not been able to get any ideas from the manager in the first place, Zahavi (famous agent), Dweezer (famous agent) and Arneson (senior scout), these people are closer to Abu than the previous Blues managers, and many of the Russian's decisions are based on listening to these people's opinions. For example, Dweezer was a key figure in Abu's decision to fire Scolari and bring in Hiddink, with whom he had a close personal relationship. Remember Kenyon's name? He was a long-time Chelsea chief executive who was close to Jose Mourinho but with the madman's departure he fell out of action at Stamford Bridge until he said goodbye to Chelsea in September 2009. Who would have thought at the time that Kenyon's departure would be an incalculable loss to Chelsea, who since then have only won the Premier League once, and the threshold of the Champions League final has not been touched, and during his tenure, Chelsea won the Premier League twice in 2004/05 and 2005/06, and reached the 2008 Champions League final.

As things stand, Stamford Bridge will still be a vanity fair, and the team will also undergo a new round of demolition and reconstruction, which has to be said to be the sadness of Abu. But then again, when Abu fired his coach again and again, I don't know if he thought that the key to the problem may not be these coaches. Taking Boas's tenure as an example, since Abou has publicly expressed his willingness to support Boas many times and reminded those big names in the team not to openly sing any contradictions, why did Abu still choose to give up Boas after the irreconcilable contradictions between the generals and coaches? Is it really not okay to give the young coach more time? Frank Lampard, Drogba and other old ministers are indeed worth keeping? In fact, to say the same problem, the Serie A giants Milan has also appeared, but how did Berlusconi and Allegri deal with it? The former firmly supports Allegri, the latter is determined to let Nesta, Inzaghi and other meritorious veterans slowly fade out of the Rossoneri, and Milan's blood change process has become extremely smooth with the rise of the new generation such as Nocerino. But the good thing is that as for what Abu will do next, the Daily Express has reported that Abu has issued a serious warning to all players: "You may be next!", and the Daily Mail has also pointed out that the Russians have denounced many players.

Boas, known as Mourinho's successor to Chelsea, left Stamford Bridge in embarrassment......
