The world of managing top soccer clubs is a fine line.
After ending up as runner up in both the EPL and Champions League Final, Chelsea have fired 53 year old Israeli manager Avram Grant after two days of talks with Peter Kenyon.
Amazingly Grant is removed after the “epic” Champions League final that took place this past Wednesday which Chelsea lost on penalty kicks.
Did Grant deserve to be fired?

Of course not! How many coaches have had the succes over Their career or even their current season that he has? And people here were outraged when Shattenheimer was fired for a 12-2 record but never won a playoff game in the NFL last year.
But then again, everyone suspects that Roberto Mancini will be out at Inter and Mourinho will be coach there early next week.
Mancini has had is fair share of success coaching at Inter, but he is crossroads with the Board, and he wil be gone. Having lost the Coppa Italia today to Roma, will give the Inter Board an excuse to fall back on.
I guess John Terry needs to be fired as well.
