I don't want to have to say this again....

GIVE THIS MAN THE FUCKING JOB!

[Jype 6,398]

No matter what happens in the final, it'll be "a fucking disgrace" if he doesn't get the job after this.

Sky Sports raised an intresting point about having someone considered when AVB got the sack and lined up to take over in summer...but club never that orangised so doubt it and bloody hell he deserves it!!And really hope we can win 2 trophy for him..or two be even better

[Henrique 9,133]

Just give him the job.

I do have to say his man management skills have been superb.

Ranks up there with the Mourinho, Hiddink and Carlo.

And last, it was funny at the end of the Barcelona game RDM having a little chat with Romeu. He probably knew he had split allegiance about the game, but RDM trying to do what AVB couldn't do; support and get every player in the team acting as one unit.

Well done RDM.

AVB's man management skills were non-existent. He has alot to learn. However I do think he will get a high profile job sometime in the near future.

We are undoubtable doing superbly under him...The problems come with knowing that the squad still needs an overhaul and this being carried out in the correct mannor...Knowing the likes of Malouda,Meireles,Bos,Drogs,Lamps even Torres to a lesser extent need replacing with top notch players, this as we know depends on top 4. That said our CL form,FA cup run has been nothing short of magnificent. I don't mean to take away from any of the above mentioned players either. It's about knowing whats best for the club and getting adequate raplcements in to challenge for the prem next year, this squad hasn't played well for the majority of the season under AVB it would have been interesting under RDM. But our league form while inproved, still isn't fantastic. We need top 4, so your league form right now has to be priority. Then if Robbie gets the job he has to carry out the clear out in the right way.

The great Sacchi used to say that it was better to play with 10 men then 11.

But for that to happen the team had to be very synchronized and the right changes to be made in the game.

This a lone gives great credit to RDM!

I wouldn't mind Roman having a go himself, heck he might even be a good player, player manager anyone?.

I can't wait till we see Kalou as our new manager, what a great achievement it was getting Kalou. I don't think anyone can doubt his abillity, not to mention i bet he's one bad ass manager.

This be King Kalou on the side line telling those players who is BAWS!.

I think Gary Neville summed it up perfectly at the end of last night's game - What an unbelievable level of effort and commitment he is getting out of this group of players game after game.

In 10 days we have smashed Spurs in an FA Cup final, knocked out Barcelona over 2 legs and held Arsenal on their own patch with mostly squad players.

It does feel like back to the Mourinho era - he has players seemingly prepared to run through brick walls for him and the club. That comes from his own passion and love for this club.

With the exception perhaps of Mourinho himself returning, surely the sensible choice to the Chelsea board must now be to give this man a permanent opportunity!

[Justin_3d 1,140]

Di Matteo will have to wait

Roberto Di Matteo will have to wait until the summer to see if he gets the Chelsea job on a permanent basis, according to the club's chief executive Ron Gourlay.

[Superblue 6,372]

In all fairness I think it's the right decision by the board. It keeps everybody on their toes, working hard, striving to succeed, and given how many times we've had our fingers burnt with managers it makes sense to bide our time.

I just hope when it comes to it that this man gets the first interview and the first consideration, he deserves it. I believe anyone but Mourinho or Robbie and the fans will be very disgruntled.
