Chelsea sack Scolari..

Luiz Felipe Scolari has been sacked as Chelsea manager, the club announced on Monday afternoon.A
statement on the club's official website revealed the move had been
made "to maintain a challenge for the trophies we are still competing
for".Brazilian Scolari was appointed last summer as the replacement for Avram Grant.The statement on www.chelseafc.com
added: "Felipe has brought many positives to the club since he joined,
and we all feel a sense of sadness that our relationship has ended so
soon."Unfortunately the results and performances of the team appeared to be deteriorating at a key time in the season."In
order to maintain a challenge for the trophies we are still competing
for,
we felt the only option was to make the change now."The search for a
new manager has already started, and we hope to have someone in place
as soon as possible."Scolari's
final game in charge was a goalless draw at home to Hull on Saturday, a
result which was met with boos at the final whistle.Assistant coach Ray Wilkins has been placed in temporary charge.

I'd love to make a comment - but it might be misconstrued as meaning I care :roll:
