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?
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.

hindsight shows us that Roman made the right decision.
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.

Like Bho said, this isn't U8 where the manager is infallible. That was Rafa's point.
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.

See my above post. We'll have to agree to disagree with this one. I don't expect players to run the club, but I do think the veterans are well within their rights to object to management if need be. Terry and Co. have been through, what, 5 managers now? I think their opinion does hold a bit of weight, even if it may come across the wrong way.
Also, since we're on the topic, did any of them actually come out and criticize AVB publicly? Or are we just assuming they refused to play for him? Genuine question, I don't remember. If they did come out and say something, I am 100% against that. These types of things need to be kept in-house.
See, I just don't buy that. Different mindsets I guess.
