So who will be the next permanent Chelsea manager? Your guess is as good as mine. What I mean is that it's not easy to try to second guess what Roman Abramovich will do next. But let's try anyway. I don't think he'll take the gamble of going for another young, up-and-coming manager because of how that turned out with Andre Villa-Boas. Of course that worked with Jose Mourinho but without wishing to further inflate the ego of the Real Madrid boss, Mourinho really is a bit special. So it will probably be a wise old head and it will have to be someone who isn't afraid to take on Abramovich and say "Look, I'm the manager. You appointed me to run the football team so let me get on with the job of doing that. If you want to do it yourself just say, pay up my contract and I'll see you later"....
