Wasn't the point of the hire to set a basis for the future? To install a new system that would take Chelsea to the cutting edge of contemporary football tactics?
And at what point is that abandoned? Is the fact that they went on to win an FA Cup, CL and are now top of the table evidence enough that the players were right to some extent? Once again, as nice as it is to think that AVB should have been given time, hindsight shows us that Roman made the right decision.

With that type of mentality players can just do what they want because they don't agree with it.
Not what he's saying at all. I guess you have to read his book to really understand what he was getting at. Like Bho said, this isn't U8 where the manager is infallible. That was Rafa's point. Think.

Similarly, I would have hoped Gerrard/Carragher would have stepped up and said something to upper management during the Woy debacle. Keeping their mouth shut would have been a disservice to the club and fans IMO.

It doesn't matter if the players are right. The players don't run the club. The manager and the front office does. Their job is to implement what the club is trying to do, not what they want to do themselves.

Roman did make the right decision. The players did not. It's the front office's job to decide if the manager works or not, not the players. Mutiny is rarely justified in any profession.

I agree, I just think it isn't the players job to take action into their own hands. They should back the decisions of the front office, whether they agree with it or not, until the front office makes a change.
