Excellent news.....great to have Robbie back

I'll give him till Christmas before roman gets fed up with him

That'll mean RA won't have to fork out as much when he decides to go for another manager next summer.

AVB obviously knows what it takes to play in England due to his stint earlier in his career, so if he thinks Falcao is a better option to bring in then I'll take his word on it. Can't say I know that much about him though tbh. Hulk just reminds me of Emile Heskey

Exciting times ahead.......my only concern about this is that Roman will not give him time to create a legacy like every other manager we've brought in. If we're to pay the fee to release him from his current position, then I hope he's given time and not shoved out the door as soon as things go a bit pear shaped.

It's about time we started banning journalists from Stamford Bridge who continually make stories up about the goings on of our club. Once that happens they'll all think twice about creating something JK Rowling would be proud of.

He was a very good striker as far as I can remember. Could have went on to bigger and better things, but it just wasn't to be.

Aye, she's a right munter....

Yeah, the Mrs has been in and out of hospital, so my visits online have been few and far between.

Just posted that link up on the Follow Follow site Ollie....you may reach your target afterall

I remember the wanker award too.....

Maybe it's due to me being older than some on here, but I can't agree with that. Many moons ago a good season for Chelsea was mid table. We gradually started to climb the table and win trophies long before Roman rode into town throwing his wads of cash around. For me you have to earn the right to have those high standards, not buy the right. I'll reiterate what I said earlier, I'm grateful for Romans input, but it's the fans that suffer the most in the long run. We were here long before Roman and we'll be here long after he's gone. Whilst he's here he should be taking us into consideration when deciding wether or not to have us going through another transitional period with another new manager. All this "Carlo love in" is bullshit. It's nothing of the sort. (Insert New Managers Name Here) will come in and try to stamp his authority on the players. It will take time for his ideas to get across and before you know it, we're back to square one. Roman becomes disillusioned and throws his toys out of the pram and sends him packing with a bumper pay off. We can't keep doing this. We have to draw the line somewhere and give 100% backing to a manager for the length of his contract. Roman is acting like a teenager who dumps his girlfriend because she wouldn't put out. Sooner or later that teenager is going to have to learn that if he wants to get his hole, he's going to have to be in it for the long run and not look elsewhere every time he doesn't get his end away. Sadly for Roman I don't think he will ever realise this.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out. You just don't get it. This is not about Roman, this is not about Carlo........This is about Chelsea FC. Carlo deserves a hell of a lot of respect from the fans for what he managed to do not only this season, but the season before. This was imo a bigger achievement than winning the double considering the amount of constrictions that were forced upon him. He inherited a very good squad in his double winning season, so to have a good chunk of that squad ripped away from him and then attempt to bring...sorry....force youngsters through to plug the gaps and still manage to finish second and come within touching distance of another title. I think that deserves more than a kick up the hole and a get the fuck out. He had the experience and ability to be Chelsea manager for many years and create a legacy at the club. If we continue to panic and get shafted of anyone who doesn't win the CL within Romans desired expiry date, then we'll continue to be fans who've been cheated out of long term success. dont get me wrong, I'm greatful for Romans impact on the club, but he seriously needs to sit down and rethink his actions if he wants Chelsea to be a real force in World Football. We deserve better......

Then why don't you jog on to some Madrid forum then ?

I doubt you were complaining when we were spanking everyone in sight at the start of the campaign. We hit a sticky patch with very important players out and it was the lack of depth (due to Roman not forking out) that cost us the title. Once we got those players back we scrapped our way back into contention. This is the thanks Carlo gets for doing an almost impossible job with his hands tied.

This is what does my head in about Roman. How the fuck are we going to be able to put a long term plan into practice when you sack a decent manager at the drop of a hat ? Anyone with have a brain will give this job a wide berth. We're just going back and forth and it's getting to the point where we're being looked at as a joke of a club. I can remember when Madrid were sacking their managers like they were going out of fashion and I thought to myself I'm glad we're not a club like that, but that's what we've turned into. I'm fucking sick of this. All the best Carlo. Gutted for you

More or less a nothing game. We could do with signing off this season with a good performance.

Few rumours flying around several Rangers forums that Chelsea will be going back to Ibrox on August 6th ? Any truth in that ? EDIT - Confirmed....Get in....I'll be going to this

What's more gutting is the fact that we didn't turn up in the 1st half. We'd have been better just walking out at the start of the match and handed the trophy over. They were there for the taking and we bottled it. They are not that good and it's been proven throughout the season. I will give them no credit whatsoever as i fucking hate them with a passion. I'm in a right mood......laters

Bollocks to that then

yessssssssssss

The game's not over yet....chill the fuck out. if anyone is capable of turning this around it's us. Keep believing

All that good work done over the past lot of weeks has been for nothing if we play like that again in the second half. We just didn't turn up at all in that half. Absolutely pathetic. We're not seeing much of Ash due to Valencia sitting high up the pitch. We need to counter that somehow as one of our strengths is our wing backs. They just haven't got into the game at all. Anelka > Malouda Alex > Ivanovic (push Luiz out to RB) Ramires > Mikel

Fuck sake, stop wasting good positions to get the ball into the box. Stop fannying about

We need to get our act together quick sharp. We're losing our composure.
