The Benitez Thread

[Kinol 337]

I think this is what I miss most about Mourinho, he had the balls to make changes when needed. AVB was similar, as well.

Yeah, right now i just want a manager with some balls. Mourinho would never let us, the fans, go trough all this shit with Torres.

Rafa quote afterwards ''Were Chelsea more dangerous in the last 10 minutes with Ba than in the previous 80 with Torres?''. "No, I don't think so."

Oh well another nail in his coffin , but the board should pay for their shambolic handling of appointments and sackings, instead of which they ream Romans arse and are Teflon

As long as Roman is lumping into their accounts each month they will do what they do best, sit on their hands and do/say fuck all. I would fucking swing for Buck and Gourlay right now. Cunts

I don't like Rafa, but this isn't really his fault.. Is it?

No it isn't his fault, you're right! All he's done is rotate the squad.. and one good thing he has done is help Torres come good again, in some way.. (not completely, but you get the jist).. he certainly wasn't any decent in the Swansea game though!

.. I think a lot of supporters hold so much of a grudge on Benitez just because he managed Liverpool and because he said negative things about Chelsea during his time there! Some people just need to accept that he's our manager and move on! Yes I hate Rafa and I want RDM back, but none of us on this forum run the club. It's up to our board to make the decisions (which always seem to be shit ones anyway)..

.. even so, Rafa is only here until the end of the season anyway .. hopefully this summer, either Jose will come home, or we'll get Guardiola!

hahaha If he promises it's one way I'll carry the cunt there myself. May need to stop a couple of times mind.

[Jype 6,398]

But, does anyone think he will actually be sacked before the end of the season?

No, but he sure as hell should be.

[Manuf 1,448]

lol. could hardly understand people protecting him after his first 4 matches, but hell, i think we need a psycho if someone still believes in da fat messiah.

may i ask once again, why do you think he was jobless for 2 years?

[kellzfresh 7,229]

benitez and torres, fuck you two. Because torres is sucking benitez dick he had to wait till the 80th minute to sub off torres.

He waited for the right offer.

[didierforever 7,349]

i simply cant wait for this and the blonde whore's threads to be locked. would be the day of my life...

[bababoom 4,478]

He waited till the 80th minute to sub Torres... unbelievable, he touched the ball roughly 16 times, only had two shoots, we were basically playing with 10 men.

It was similar to the QPR match, we all said bring Mata on in the second half, but what does he do? wait till the 75th minute..

[Manuf 1,448]

He waited for the right offer.

yeah, and worked on that super hyper mega football app nobody knew of

[robdog 2,084]

I don't like Rafa, but this isn't really his fault.. Is it?

for failed tactics & stupid rotations...YES!!!!

Very frank and candid report of the nights events....

[Changingman_2000 876]

Fans having a pop on the pitch. Genuine anger and rage against him from all four corners. You would think he would do the decent thing, the right thing, and walk. Fuck me, he'd be more popular at Man Ure!

Then again, money talks, and you don't get fuck all for walking away

[kwylino 329]

I've given up on torres though, think if we can do damage limitation and sell him for like 15-20 mil, some would point to giving him to atletico madrid as a make weight for Falcao (though i would like the idea of it being for one or two players other than falcao (Cause atletico isn't just falcao) plus on if we can nab a youth player we can develop off them, Maybe even form a long lasting relationship) or If anzhi or Galatasaray/Fenerbache come knocking , is it safe to say liverpool did a pretty much what Inter Milan did to barcelona (though i dont think i will ever see a such well "turning out" transfer ever again ) With Ibrahimovic for Eto'o + a LOT of cash

Benitez, I dunno i remain a little optimistic but I ultimately dont think the results is right for our club, sure if we wereee...Norwich or West ham (where we can lose, then win then lose then draw then win), but not Chelsea, But as i said, i will ultimately judge once Benitez has left our club So i wont say bollocks to him until then, Might even turn out to be one of our greatest managers of all time (Dont murder me for it cause he hasn't been sacked yet, Anything can happen X) )

The thing that pisses me of about Benitez is he takes too long to make tactical changes. Not just the game tonight, many others where he takes the final 10-15 mins to realise a player is useless. Another thing is he is so up Torres ass, everything always has to be about him. He can't go a day without mentioning him. First, I believe I can get the best out of Torres, it looked believable but now that is obviously a short fairytale. Then even when Ba arrives, who is at the centre of attention again? That blonde prick Torres, "I believe Ba can help Torres...." just STFU and let him prove it on the pitch. Then other BS we hear from Benitez: "Torres been looking really good on the training ground" ermmm is a training ground a realistic football match? NO. These two suit each other but don't deserve to be anywhere near a club like Chelsea!

Once again - it's the same old story with this absolute fucking delinquent.

Played what was for the most part our strongest team & swept aside inferior opponents over the weekend, as was expected - benefitting fully from benching that frivolous 50 mil fool - which consequently restored false hopes in so many of Rafa's advocates who still refuse to accept the reality of his incompetancy & nonsensical philosophies. Only for him to revert back to his complete insolent arrogant best today.

To be fair, the starting line-up wasn't weak by any means. However, once it was clear that goldilocks hadn't turned up as usual & the goals weren't going to come from anyone else on the pitch either, he should have done something about it since we were trailing due to an unfortunate mistake, despite dominating the vast majority of possession without much threat of conceding again.

So as the second half begins as tentatively as the first with no apparent breakthrough & something obviously needed to sway the game in our favour - what does this acclaimed tactical mastermind do?

Nothing.

Absolutely fuck all nothing - apart from sitting on his fat fucking arse waiting for his ingenius gameplan to kick into action & provide him with all the plaudits for his exceptional managerial prowess, as he so craves.

At least up until he finally realised that his strategy had failed to make any significant impact on the match, in the 70th fucking minute - when he should have made more than one sub & they both should have been on 10-20 minutes prior to that in reality. By the time Lamps & Ba had finally made it onto the pitch, it was obviously far too late to expect any immediate miracles - despite them almost delivering exactly that, only for some ridiculous officiating to deem it all redundant.

Once again it is Rafa's ridiculously oblivious naivety & unwarranted arrogance that has cost us a game we simply should have won.

As usual, he was completely set upon the idea that his superior tactics & team selection would prevail eventually against a smaller club with little offensive threat - but his reluctance to alter his own gameplan when things were evidently not working out on the pitch has left us in a desperately difficult position that is likely to result in yet another opportunity to obtain some silverware being lost in this sea of madness that has engulfed our season.

It's one thing to condemn his past discrepancies & hold his own words against him for the person that he is; clearly some of you feel that is unjustified somehow but I guess that depends on your own history of supporting this club.

But when he is so clearly out of his depth & continues to torment us all with his own inherent plague, I just don't understand how you can possibly continue to support him as if it is somehow going to benefit the club in any way.

Seriously - how the fuck are some of you still not sick of this cunt yet?
