Breaking News: Grant Shows Emotion
By: Jack | February 29th, 2008
I know, shocking. On Thursday, the Chelsea manager lashed out at the media and also took a swipe at player agents following a week of reported turmoil at Stamford Bridge.
“If someone else had done what I’ve done, you’d treat him differently,” Avram said. “Even when I came you didn’t give me any credit. I respect you even if you didn’t respect me but since then I’ve heard a lot of lies. Because we lost one game, I don’t think you need to lose your integrity and create stories that never happened.
“Don’t listen to the agents so much. I think you’re trying to hurt the team, hurt the club because we lost one game. Wait with the knife a little bit, and I’ll respect you more.”
Tell ‘em why you mad Avram! Really, after the week this guy has endured, you had to believe he would snap — if you can call it that — at some point. At least we know he’s human and not some droid.

Have to say I appreciate the choice of photo here Jack! Hilarious!
I watched the news conference in full on the BBC website and Avram certainly gave it both barrels at times - well one barrel at least! - not just on the way he media had treated him but also on players agents which I think is pretty brave to say the least, if not a little careless. I just wonder whether this will hinder our chances of signing players in the Summer if AG is still at the helm?
Hats off to the lad though, he didn’t go over the top and totally let rip but like you said at least we now know he isn’t Darth Maul in disguise - all be it no so convincing!Posted from
