A imprensa britânica diverte-se a derreter Scolari:
"In the end, the only surprise was the timing" (Guardian)
"A former Chelsea player told me that some senior players were not convinced by Scolari's methods and it was showing on the field. There were suggestions he was finding the transition from the hit-and-run style of international management to day-to-day affairs in a new country a difficult one to make" (BBC)
"Hamstrung by his own failure to adapt to the marathon demands of the English season" (...) "The players’ faith in the World Cup-winning coach is understood to have been undermined by his training methods, which some senior internationals felt failed to address the unique demands of the Premier League. With Chelsea having slipped below Aston Villa in the Premier League, there were very real concerns about the possibility of finishing outside the top four and failing to qualify for the Champions League" (Telegraph)
"They were winning home games and had that fabulous unbeaten home record but suddenly they looked an ordinary team" (Independent)
