Yeah I am so disappointing with all these new managers they choose. As it stands, RDM can't do any worse then AVB, Scolari and Avram. Will actually save us some money that we need to spend in new manager, and thus spend in players this summer.

Guys here are ridiculous hating on the Arsenal goalkeeper when all he does is telling the truth!

I honestly would not mind RDM staying cause any new manager that comes in will get fired anyways.

Good point there! Then there this article: How would Roman Abramovich react to being a laughing stock at Chelsea? http://www.guardian....amovich-chelsea

Bored with the whole Chelsea saga? Maybe Roman Abramovich is too http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/mar/07/chelsea-saga-roman-abramovich

:blue scalf:

At this rate, might as well bring back Vialli, and Gullit. Stop with this nonsense of going back to old managers, just get Moyes! :blue scalf:

The thing is that Roman don't care cause he got the money. But the bad thing is that we are worse, because that money is reflected in our balance sheet, and thus stop us from spending more due to the FFP rules. Roman could throw another 300 mill for all he cares, but the club can't handle that, because we don't make enough revenue to balance it out. Don't think he is right now, but has potential. And buying potential is great, but not for the job Roman put AVB to do. That was lunatic!

Why would Mourinho go back to Chelsea? By Eurosport | Armchair Pundit – 1 hour 59 minutes ago As of Tuesday lunchtime, the bookies' favourite to manage Chelsea next season is Jose Mourinho - for example, would offer you odds of just 7/4 on the Special One returning to Stamford Bridge.We all know why he is tipped to come back - he is a god at Stamford Bridge, he has dropped strong hints that he will leave Real Madrid for England in the summer, and he is apparently house-hunting in the capital. He likes Chelsea, of course, and they love him. But it is not a move that makes sense, either for him or the club. Let's look at it from the club's point of view. It might not have made him popular, but Andre Villas-Boas was dead right when he said last week Chelsea's squad cannot hold a candle to Manchester City's. The players who were the mainstay of Mourinho's side have declined, but their enduring influence makes change exceptionally difficult. Is Mourinho the man to deliver that change? He built a near-unbreakable bond with players like Frank Lampard, John Terry and Didier Drogba. What happens when he is tasked with moving them on? For all his ruthless strategising, Mourinho is actually extremely loyal to those who serve him well. At Chelsea he brought in players who excelled for him at Porto - Ricardo Carvalho, Paulo Ferreira and later Maniche. Carvalho went on to play for Mourinho at Real Madrid. He stands by the people he trusts. When it comes to cutting ties with Chelsea's past, why would you bring back the leading figure from that past to do so? It is also unclear why Mourinho would want to go back? What has he got to gain? He has already won umpteen trophies with Chelsea - if he wins umpteen more (in a more competitive Premier League), so what? Boring. What's your next trick? The only major pot missing is, of course, the Champions League. If he could win the big one with Chelsea, he would cement his reputation among the greatest managers ever. But it seems slim justification for retreading old ground - you might win the Champions League, an incredibly difficult competition to master even for the very best. And right now, Chelsea are a long way from being the very best. Mourinho built a great team, which has decayed since his departure. Would he really get the time and money required to restore Chelsea to greatness? He and Roman Abramovich have reportedly mended their bridges since their acrimonious split in 2007. They might be best pals now, but how long will that last when football's most headstrong manager teams up again with one of its most impatient and impulsive owners? AVB was given a three-year contract and a mandate for change, then lost his job within a year, mainly because the squad objected to him doing exactly what the owner asked of him. What would make any manager - even Mourinho - believe he would get the time needed for root-and-branch reform at Stamford Bridge? The first time around, Mourinho spent lavishly, boosted by some astute signings by the outgoing Claudio Ranieri (Petr Cech and Arjen Robben were both Ranieri buys). In these days of Financial Fair Play, it is harder to justify a £200 million outlay on players. In any case, Abramovich does not have the same appetite for acquisition. His plan was to buy a squad, then make the club able to support itself. Peter Kenyon promised Chelsea would be self-sufficient by 2009 - in January 2012 they posted a loss of £68m. Abramovich never wanted to prop up a loss-making enterprise - why would he chuck more money into what looks increasingly like a financial black hole? A far better fit for Mourinho appears to be Tottenham, who will probably be looking for a manager as soon as England get around to installing Harry Redknapp. If Mourinho wants to cement his legacy, how about winning Spurs their first league title since 1961? It is no pipe dream. This is a club with a squad that is more talented, younger and easier to handle than Chelsea's. Chairman Daniel Levy has been a little trigger-happy with his sackings (Martin Jol was particularly unlucky) but nothing to compare with Abramovich's requirement that you either win a major trophy in your first season or search for new employment. We do not know a great deal about Tottenham's owners ENIC, other than their boss Joe Lewis is worth £2.8 billion - so money may well be available if ENIC think it will deliver a return. Spurs are already close to mounting a serious title challenge - maybe three players away. Could a top-class striker, a centre-back and a younger goalkeeper push them over the top? With Mourinho at the helm, they just might. His arrival would galvanise the squad, persuade Luka Modric and Gareth Bale the team is serious about silverware, and persuade the owners to commit money to a transfer chest. It is, in virtually every sense, a better situation than would await him in west London. As far as Jose Mourinho is concerned, Chelsea should remain in the past. Tottenham Hotspur are the future. --------------- He seems like a Sours fan, but I have to say, the men got a point!

Low quiet on Blues link http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/7574691/ Hurry up already and come here, so you can get sack! :blue scalf:

I am still expecting the new manager effect to happen! RDM will do good in this short little time, and everyone will be saying he is the best thing to ever happen since slice bread!

Those are no good excuses! lol. The excuse you give against Carlo and AVB are far better then that!

BTW Henrique how come you have never giving any good reason why don't you want Mourinho? All you say is you don't want him, but you never give any good excuse! Stop messing around and tell me! :blue scalf:

This guy agrees with you: Jacobs: Abramovich doesn't know what he's doing http://www.talksport...-what-hes-doing He also gives a shout for Moyes. How he would wish Moyes would be giving a try.

Roman scores own goal! Firing AVB may have scared off top names Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2110639/Andre-Villas-Boas-sacking-scared-names.html#ixzz1oHvcOgSn

Ozil and Sahin are targets we could have never achieved! As they wanted Madrid, has nothing to do with Mourinho. Is like Lukaku wanting to come to Chelsea, had nothing to do with AVB...and still Chelsea got rob with his price! Coentrao....don't make me laugh! He cost more then Mata!!!

Uefa's Financial Fair Play could tie new Chelsea manager's hands • Uefa is adamant it will apply sanctions on clubs • Chelsea may be contesting Europa League next season http://www.guardian....+%28Football%29 If Mourinho can't spend he is not going to come!

Even after a day I am still gutted that this happen. But dam you Roman for sacking Carlo and rushing AVB so soon! Another season for Carlo would have not hurt and cost us less then what we just payed. All I can hope is that AVB can comeback to Chelsea in a couple of years from now.....Yes now I am delusional for thinking like that, but I can dream. This guy was going to be big, but he was not for Chelsea at this moment! We probably see a Clough in the making with AVB. sigh.

You guys read this, from a Chelsea fan? Right man wrong time http://www.skysports...7571897,00.html Spot on!

Well since Bilbao will be playing United in the Europa League you will see....I hope they don't let me down! If they can play as good like they did against Barcelona and Real Madrid you will see what I'm talking about, cause a lot of people should be watching that match... And hopefully they get a fair ref. that don't help United like they did against Madrid. Cause Bilbao was kicking ass against Madrid in the Santiago Bernabue till the ref got a Bilbao player sent of!

Well I think AVB has the potential to be one of the best manager in the world, even better then Mourinho. But that's not now! Maybe in 10 years or so. Bielsa is more like the type of coach AVB can turn out to be, in fact their philosophy today is a lot the same with the exception of the experience. A raging lunatic that likes insane attacking football.

:goodpost: You read my mind!

He was my first choice in the summer. And after seeing how the club treated AVB.... When you read this article you can't help but think there are some similarities with AVB. Marcelo Bielsa finally begins to get a tune out of Athletic Bilbao http://www.guardian....-bilbao-la-liga But after thinking rationale and not being as pissed as yesterday, I would tell you yes. I would take Bielsa or Moyes over Mourinho. Because by now we know what the problem is. This summer some of the old guard must go! Something the board and owner must put it into the new managers head. Any new managers bar Mourinho, we would have to sell players like Lampard, Cole, Drogba and Malouda!

This is the only time I will be supporting Robdog team. If Betis beat or tie Levante, Bielsa's team keep 4th place!

I vote for talkchelsea.net to make me a new emoticon. That looks like this: :ballack: But that says Is He Sack Yet?
