The Roberto Di Matteo Thread

[Beirut_Blues 306]

I just hope they make him official within the coming week so that he can do what's necessary in terms of planning to get us back to the top of the League...

Wouldn't mind back-to-back UCL titles either

"Do you want the job?"

"Do you know what i'm going to do? I'm going to have a big party with the big trophy with the big ears"

LEGEND.

That is freakin' awesome..I really hope RDM gets it. The Fans loved him as a player. They love him as gaffer. He doesn't make the sexy decision, but he makes the right one.

[HRiver 1,512]

This man deserves credit. He who thinks that we haven't won this trophy thanks to him is insane.

[Kez 2,727]

FUCKING LEGEND.

Sometimes I think of the tequila commercial when I see Robbie. Calm, cool, collected.

This is a Chelsea man who has finally delivered us the holy grail of trophies. His passion and drive has rubbed off on the players.

When decisions have been needed to be made he's made them - Ramires out wide, Mata in the middle, reshuffling the defence against Barca and Bertrand tonight.

For all we know, RDM is our version of Guardiola at Barca. Give him a chance, i'm a believer in him!

[Ortiv 42]

Give the man the job, let him rebuild the squad. What's a year or two without a trophy after a night like this

Right now you could even excuse RDM if he relegated chelsea to natiionwide

[Kostas 1,468]

There's just no way now that letting him go won't be the most heartless thing in football. I'm still not sure about whether he will or should stay but I can say with certainty now that he deserves to.

What a legend:

They can't not give him the job, they will have a revolution on their hands.

[Laylabelle 9,357]

Taking a gamble with whoever we get. Deserves a chance

[Leif 6,006]

We have to remember guys - What RDM has done for us as a player and as a legend has been brilliant. I don't want us to ruin that.

Look at Dalglish at Liverpool.

A total legend, but now much less of a legend after damaging Liverpool.

We have no idea how RDM would deal with transfers and new egos at the club who have no idea of our history and that RDM is a legend. He already doesn't seem like a great motivator to Lampard and Drogba etc, as he's their FRIEND first and foremost before being their boss.

He seems like a great, determined, passionate tactician - but not a manager yet... just like AVB.

He DESERVES to manage us, but I think it would be the wrong move long-term.

He's also a fan of defensive football, which Roman no longer wants.

It would be extremely hard parting with RDM, especially after what he's just helped us achieve.

Love the guy.

[Liquidator 5,176]

If he does not get the job I will eat my own shoe

[themightyblue 443]

When he was appointed im sure he was told, 'Get us in the champions league next season'

He's just gone and got us two bloody trophies and CL football

[Fulham Broadway 16,851]

Gave an interview on the pitch at Allianz after the game to German TV station in German.

not many other Prem managers could do that

He speaks German? My god he can do it all

[Bosnian Blue 2,471]

German Sky reporter says to di Matteo: "Your style of football is successful but is it nice?" Di Matteo walks off...

What a legend.
