Chelsea? 892 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 RDM was never the first choice for the job. Chelsea probably wanted Pep but he needed a break. Pep seems to be rested and ready now so Chelsea just needed an opportunity to sack RDM. Now just hopefully Pep is ready. Even our signings seem made to attract Pep.

Buffalo talks Blue 85 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Rafa will be a temporary manager?Yeah heard about that. He'll be on a 'short-term' basis. Just out of curiosity, I just found a weird connection between RDM getting sacked and Torres not playing, with both incidents happening in the same game. A coincidence? Or, maybe Torres himself is behind the sacking? My apologies if I am talking crap. I just lost my mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mak 4,459 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 The Mak thinks this is another moment to blame Torres...Seriously though, think about it. Who signed Torres for Liverpool? Who was going on about 'how to get the best out of Torres' last year? (I believe his answer was to speak Spanish to him) Who is a fat Spanish waiter? Exactly. The Mak feels Roman was just waiting for an opportunity like this so he could sack RDM and employ Benitez, with the only only reason The Mak can see is to accommodate sulky Torres. If Torres doesn't score now, he never will...Personally, the Mak doesn't think he'll change a bit and continue being terrible. We're better off getting José back, Didier on loan and to get The Mak out of retirement so we can all live as a happy family once again. Wouldn't that be nice?

Superblue 6,372 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 My only problem with Guardiola is if he insists on not taking over until the summer IMO shows a lack of commitment to wanting to cone here and build something special.

Thistle 77 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Why would anyone want to manage us? With Roman's expectations and pressure it's coaching suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPetrCechx 13,570 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Roman should give pep a promise that he will stay at least 2-3 years not matter what happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is already missing football, he said he might even comeback in January in a interview for ESPN a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leif 6,006 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Aside from Pep, name one single available manager with a pedigree which matches Rafa's. Now throw his Premier League experience in with that. Now add his Torres experience onto that.I'm not saying I want him either, but blindly saying "FUCK RAFA WE DONT WANT U SO CALL ME MAYBE NOT XOXOX" is ignorant.I personally feel he's not got the right/positive attitude for our team, but as far as credentials go, there aren't too many, if any, available and realistic options for us at all who are 'on his level' in a sense.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I just don't understand Roman's thinking. The timing of this is absolutely horrific. It's obvious this has been up his sleeve, and he has used last night's defeat as the reasoning behind it. If someone is going to be appointed today then he has clearly gone behind RDM's back to appoint a new man. No matter how many trophies he could have won, Robbie was never going to win Abramovich over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't that be nice?AVB was fired shortly after comparing Sheva and Kezman to Torres(a comparision which is not favorable to Torres)Carlo was fired after reverting to Drogba after Torres couldn't score in 14 matchesRoy was fired after Torres didn't want to play for himRdM drops Torres one game and he sacked after not getting the best out of him even after 1600 minutes on the field and only one game missed. Coincidence ? I would not be 100% sure, if we hire Rafa to get the best out of Torres it becomes very obvious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLC 13 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I have a mixed feelings but definitely not happy with this. I'm really shocked although it's a disaster we are going to eliminated from CL and it's not acceptable for a club like us and RDM is primary responsible for it but definitely not happy with this sacking.RDM can only field the team, and although I don't agree with the team he put on the pitch yesterday was a very good choice, in previous games he has put the right players out. The players are the ones who have to convert on their scoring chances and stop surrendering goals so early in matches.and with that said: I am completely disappointed with the decision to fire RDM. I also wouldn't be completely upset with Rafa. Maybe it'll spark Torres' play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he comes here i will not boo him, it's romans choice and Rafa has a lot of experience, saying that i dont really want him, but people, we are not liverpool, so its not necessarily gonna be the same...
