Strike 7,489 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 No more mercenaries. I want players that will play for the shirt not for their wallets. yeah mateits better to watch the spirit we witnessed against napoli rather than watch a bunch of money obsessed sulkers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 if players come for the money, i would rather have chelsea not sign them how idealistic to think that they dont Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Don't see how Blanc will be any better than AvB was.I'd stick with Robbie & Eddie, unless we can somehow persuade Moyes to join our shipwreck. This is a joke right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 if players come for the money, i would rather have chelsea not sign themIf only football was that pure. It's all about money, we wouldn't be in the position we are in right now if it wasn't for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Can't really understand the link with Blanc. Maybe I'm being naive but I don't understand what he has acheived which is so astoundingly great?!If we were going down that path i would have thought Deschamps would be a better bet.

Maybe I'm being naive but I don't understand what he has acheived which is so astoundingly great?!If we were going down that path i would have thought Deschamps would be a better bet.Deschamps is a defensive coach though i think. Not that i have any problem with that, just the whole shit about Roman wanting us to be like Barca About Blanc, certainly not going to be thrilled if he takes over....isn't he racist too? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I really hope the Blanc links are just media speculations. I think I might prefer Benitez! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I will say that Blanc did an awesome job with Bordeux.....This is from Times?Any french guy can tell us if Blanc is that good?It seems another huge gamble for me, I already can see the guy getting the axe in next January.

Henrique 9,133 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Welcome to Roman's world. Where taking gamble don't matter cause he got the money!But Blanc is not a stupid move, but I think we should try other guys instead, and only try Blanc if we are not able to get Guardiola, Hiddink and this kind of guy.

BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Deschamps is the man Roman needs to get,he is far more experienced than Blanc and unlike Blanc has played for Chelsea which shows that he knows a little about the club.

Superblue 6,372 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 If Monaco had beaten Porto in the Champs League final all those years ago I think you would have seen Deschamps at the club instead of Mourinho. That final always felt like an audition for the Chelsea job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Not convinced with Laurent Blanc despite him doing reasonably well so far in his career. His achievements are similar to AVB IMO and is still relatively inexperience. It won't be long before Roman sacks him when things go wrong again.

Lampy 110 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 It's my pedantic nature, you may ignore it. It's just that I've seen you writing it that way over and over again since AVB sacking and it got to a point where I couldn't resist but point it out.It's since AVB's sacking, not since AVB sacking.

It won't be long before Roman sacks him when things go wrong again.if Laurent Blanc uses his great reputation in france and in the french media to bring players like hazard, m.villa, etc.. with him to chelsea, than i don't think things will ever go as wrong for him as they did for avb.

Chelsea offer Laurent Blanc £9m a year to take hotseatI still think the England v France game at Euro 2012 will be the audition for Blanc. Euro 2012 will see where he is in the pecking order in our list of managerial candidates. Sure, there are better managers out there (Hiddink, rafa benitez) but each of them have their own problems (Hiddink - Anzhi - costly, Rafa - u know ). Blanc is young and could lead us in to the future but at the same time, look at AVB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccioso 2,545 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Di Matteo deserves a shout. His team selection tonight was masterful, as were his tactics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace. 4,352 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 The omission of Essien, Cole and Lampard and the inclusion of Mereiles and Bosingwa against Napoli away from home were seen as an heresy - While the omission of Lampard and Essien plus the inclusion of Meireles and Kalou against Benfica are seen as a tactical genius move and a fair answer to the underperforming players. This is unfair toward our previous manager, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
