Ancelotti says no, Jack Warner telling the US no

Carlo Ancelotti

            Carlo Ancelotti, the AC Milan manager has said no to becoming the new manager of Chelsea.  Ancelotti has had much success at Milan, even though this past year was poor.  However, they won the FIFA Club World Cup, and the Champions League last year.  Potential replacements for Avram Grant seem to be scared of coming to Stamford Bridge.  Guus Hiddink said he’s not interested, now Carlo Ancelotti is not interested.  If Mancini doesn’t take the job, then maybe I will get my wish of either Frank Rijkaard, or Mark Hughes.  All we can do is hope that Peter Kenyon gets on the phone to nab Hughes from Manchester City. 

 

Jack Warner

            The ever talkative Jack Warner says the US should not attempt to bid for the 2018 World Cup.  I previously wrote an article talking about his various scandals, and his less than transparent way of doing business.  Here is what he said: 

           

“The United States should abandon plans to host the 2018 World Cup in favor of a 2022 bid, FIFA vice president Jack Warner urged Tuesday. Warner wants to back England to host football's showpiece tournament, but says it would be "political suicide" not to support the United States in his role as president of the CONCACAF federation, which covers North and Central America and the Caribbean. "I have to convince them not to bid," Warner said in an interview to be aired Tuesday night by the British Broadcasting Corp. "It is easier for me to convince America to wait until 2022 ... I have said to England that until America gets knocked out, that's where my vote will have to go."

           

At least he’ll support us if we do bid.  Jack got his pointless friendly against England, and he needs to back the US in their quest to beat England for the 2018 World Cup.  It will be 24 years since we had it, and we want it again.

That’s all for now.  Let’s hear you thoughts in the comments section.
