That's my comment on Villas-Boas getting sacked by Chelsea. Villas-Boas joined the club under the nickname "Special 2" - a softer, nicer version of cult manager José Mourinho. But, the fact is that the harsh and controversial attitude of Mourinho is a design to make sure the whole team is reunited behind him, and the players know he will be there for them, whatever it happens. Villas-Boas failed to understand that, and to actually get players support. For me, this is a very clear example of a "you can't copy only part of the example and expect the same results" - managing teams (whether football or business) is complex, and everything is interrelated. You need to know to manage each piece as part of the whole, to get to your overall objective - not your small, partial ones.
