Smart Take On Chelsea Situation Gives Mourinho Boost Of Confidence

It`s not often you get to hear such an interesting and well-balanced explanation regarding the choices made within a major club like Chelsea. Fortunately, the Blues have an excellent technical director in the person of Michael Emenalo who in a couple of sentences described what happens at Stamford Bridge putting a grim outcome in perspective.

He was perfectly right when saying that regardless of the club and its financial power, patience is growing scarce in terms of players, staff and management. It is the result of a society growing more and more impatient of anything due to the fast paced rhythm life has reached. This applies to football very well and causes situations that end up doing more harm than good.

According to the Daily Express, Michael Emenalo issued some statements that cover both the players and Mourinho who were under constant fire during the past couple of months. Sure, the club has reached a low point but as underlined by Emenalo, the same group conquered the Premier League less than a year ago. “We were champions four months ago. Not four years ago, or ten years ago” he said and he was right. He also said that “I don’t need to ask the club to spend money in January. We put ourselves in a great situation together by being champions last season. We put ourselves together in this situation in the Premier League this year; so we have to be together, again, to put it right” which is also a brilliant move. This kind of statement takes pressure off of players who fear being replaced and at the same time encourages them to step up and take responsibility for what is happening.

Big clubs have a lot to learn from this man who even managed to involve Abramovich in this without suggesting any of the parts involved should be to blame or should take any radical action. “Obviously, the power in the end is with the owner and the board, and the same way they show have shown me and the players that they trust us, it’s time for us to give them a positive answer.” Every fan should consider the things that this man has pointed out. He makes a valid point and hopefully his words would have some effect on the players.
