Scolari Not So Special

When it comes to sacking the manager there are some football clubs which do not mess about. Chelsea has a ruthless streak and will act if things are not going according to plan. Mourinho was extremely successful on the trophy front but became too big a personality for the owners. Avram Grant was always a dead man walking after succeeding Jose and he was ruthlessly axed after coming close to Champions League success.Abramovich wanted attractive football but you suspect he would now gladly settle for the sort of success Mourinho delivered. At the start of the season Chelsea looked like red hot favourites for the title but, injuries to key players have not helped their cause. Drogba has always been a big player and the managers fall out with him and also Alex did not help matters.Scolari looked to be a good appointment on paper but he has looked out of his depth in recent weeks. The premiership is all about high tempo and intense football and it was looking as though Scolari could not cope. He has had success on the international front but club football is a different kettle of fish.From what we have seen of Scolari this season England probably had a narrow escape when he changed his mind after accepting the job. If he cannot get to grips with English club football, the pressure of leading the national team would be too much. This was probably the reason for his change of heart.Making the change now gives the new man a chance to get the challenge for trophies back on track. There will be an impressive short list of high profile managers vying to be the new Chelsea manager. Among them will be Frank Rijkaard, Guus Hiddink and Sven Goran Eriksson.
