Chelsea in pole position for Guardiola

[Reddish-Blue 2,489]

I reckon Pep might be a long term replacement for Fergie or Wenger..if he decides to coach in England at some point in the future.

I wouldn't mind him at Chelsea..but RDM is doing alright for the time being.

Pep >> RDM. but I like RDM to stay here and succeed. He is our "homegrown" manager and I will feel proud if he can achieve a lot in this club. And so far he is doing alright.

RDM has done nothing wrong. When he's had a bit more experience as our boss, he'll be one of the best. He's made a few mistakes but everyone does. He's already learnt his best first XI which puts Oscar ahead of Lampard and Ramires next to Mikel, away from that right wing. If Guardiola came, i'd Jizz my pants because i know we'd win everything, especially as we've got his type of players but i love Robbie and still want him to succeed first and foremost because he's done a stunning job and all the players love him and clearly love the club the way it is at the moment.

Chelsea are in a fantastic 'moment' so let's not break it. This is Robbies project and it's clearly working, the only place Pep has is maybe Robbie's number 2...

Anyone watching the Sunday Supplement should direct Patrick Barclay towards Graham Hunter's Barcelona book if he wants to know what Guardiola contributed to Barcelona. "A donkey could manage that team." A level of pure idiocy rarely seen on television (and that is saying something)

If Pep came, it would be either sucess or disaster. I like his coaching tone, he seems calm when its required and takes what its necessary. I remember that barca was losing, and he subed Xavi because he had bad game. You need some balls to do that when your losing. Anyway, he suited Barca realy well, he was their legend as RdM is ours. But Pep could never give that passion to Chelsea like he did to Barca. Unless he would stay here for long time. And we all know how Roman acts. No trophy and your gone.

There are two things why could be good to have Pep; Rdm makes weird subs, he should try new options and sub bad players. We want play the style of game that Pep is master of it. However at Chelsea, Roman is the boss and there is lot more pressure, more than in barca on coach.

But even Pep is shit sometimes; he always makes weird subs; like puting in Keita at wrong times etc. And secondly, he only knows how to attack, once his tactics are read, he cant play differently. Im sure he couldnt play barca style here, but he still has no clue about defendinf. Here, Rdm wins big time. Last year, we were playing 10 defenders and won, this year its total offensive and Rdm did well in both ways. Subs remain his main problem, but I guess that he fears Roman, because Im sure he is thinking about title a bit and every game is very important.

Whats the conclusion? Pep as coach and Rdm as second coach - assistant

But I fully suport Rdm.

I actually believe Pep would make a perfect Director of Football.

I think two Mexican clubs offered him a Director of Football type of role but he declined the offers before going on his sabbatical because he still wants to be a manager.

My opinion is RDM is like Marko Marin and Pep is like Hazard.

Guardiola will probably do an AVB with his next club.

Yeah 'cause Robbie managed Messi, Xavi and Iniesta and failed.

AvB left Porto too early.

AVB and Pep are like Mazda RX-8 and Ferrari, both sports cars but quite a difference.
