Roberto Di Matteo – a right decision in the right direction by Andre Villas Boas
“If you see the technical staff in front of me, and my appointment of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294, these are people who like the quality of the game and have a philosophy. It’s not just a case of winning it’s a case of flair.” Andre Villas-Boas.
His comments during his press conference summed up the expectations that his boss and the fans have of him. More important is his hiring of Roberto Di Matteo by the manager as his assistant. The vision and the strategy are clear and have all the fans feeling
highly optimistic. Di Matteo’s hiring in the back room is a look towards shaping a better future for the club and a step in the right direction.
Di Matteo is a former Blues midfielder and had a strong fan base at the Stamford Bridge. He is backed by a successful history at Chelsea. He was part of the winning team that won two FA Cups, a league cup, a UEFA Super Cup and a UEFA Cup Winner’s Cup.
Seeing past heroes as a part of the management team is always reassuring for the club loyalists. The fans can connect with them. Di Matteo will know the history and the culture that the club has. He will be able to understand what goes on around him and
how. Moreover, he will have a strong respect and share the bond for the club’s traditions. It is a characteristic that Villas Boas, who was a scout under Jose Mourinho, also shares with Di Matteo. It is always pleasing to see a technical staff that has past
roots with the same club and understand what their board and the fans expect of them to achieve.
Villas Boas will now look to Di Matteo to help formalise a strategy and style of play that is appealing to the fans and resonate with the club’s culture. Chelsea are known to play an attacking style of football. As per the manager, they will continue to
do that.
"Everyone likes attacking football and the Premier League has a certain amount of goals in every game and it should be an entertaining game for the fans and that is what we will look to do," Villas Boas said.
Back then, Di Matteo’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 were also full of fair and played an attacking and attractive football. When he took over MK Dons as a manager, he carried the flair forward. He persisted with his aggressive style with West Brom as well. In short, his philosophy
is coherent with that of the club and Villas Boas.
Di Matteo has what Villas Boas currently lacks; experience of managing a club in the English Premier League. He had helped West Brom regain a place in the top flight during his tenure. Villas Boas will turn to his second in charge for assistance. He can
be assured of plenty of insight from the Italian.
Although Di Matteo was a manager with his previous clubs and will have to now content being a second fiddle, his promotion to Chelsea is a massive boost in his career. It will provide him with more coaching experience. He has the time on his side and has
plenty of it available to be a successful Premier League boss of the future.
Di Matteo and Villas Boas are both young, ambitious and share the same philosophy. They have a strong and an obvious desire to be successful. Di Matteo’s hiring is a popular choice as he was the hero with the Blues fans. Villas Boas needs to continue to
make the right decisions as this. As long as that continues, the Blues fans are in for a treat.
