Chelsea Got It Wrong - Robinho

Last updated : 15 February 2009 By Sam
The Portuguese manager was dismissed from his post at Chelsea just seven months ater taking on the job at Stamford Bridge but Robinho believes that the London club may have acted too quickly in sacking the former Portugal and Brazil international team coach.

"I know Scolari very well and he talks a lot with the players," City's Brazilian striker told the Sunday People.

"I don't understand why some Chelsea players have not accepted him and that has been the key to irregular results of recent weeks.

"I did not expect the sacking of Scolari, but so many unexpected things happen in English football.

"Felipe is a great coach and he showed that with Brazil and Portugal. They have not given him the necessary time at Chelsea.

"It is another club and I should not get too involved, but I think they have got it wrong."
