The Benitez Thread

[Jase 43,479]

Why would a player leave a club and join us then? Your argument is madness - people leave clubs all of the time regardless of how 'well' they are doing!!!

Of course they would but my point was why would they want to quit their club in the middle of the season?! Mentioned earlier, all the supposed targets of Roman are not available right now and all for similar reasons. Simeone's Atletico Madrid are flying high in La Liga, in the Copa Del Rey and in with a good shout to defend their Europa League title. Klopp's Dortmund maybe far behind Bayern in the Bundesliga but they're still in the German Cup and look capable of doing something special in the Champions League. For Mourinho, he wouldn't leave Madrid, not now unless he gets the sack.

All those targets are not possible to get at least till in the summer. If you wanna employ someone unemployed now, who would be good enough to manage us? Avram Grant? Alan Curbishley? Gareth Southgate? There's hardly anyone out there good enough to manage us. And even then, these are all just 2nd tier managers and Roman is likely to kick them out come the summer and replace with some big name manager.

Yeah - personal - I've seen shit loads of posts WORSE than my so called BAD BEHAVIOUR in a match thread where we lost the CWC and emotions running high - but those people don't have Warnings!!!

So, Inconsistency from you = personal... Say what you want - BUT I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE.....

Can't even bother to debate properly and now you're suddenly committing ad hominem!

The report button is always there to report if you see something offensive around and if it's that, then we'll deal with it accordingly. We don't have all the time in the world to be looking through every single posts for anything offensive and please, what's the inconsistency gotta do with me? I'm not the only forum staff around!

The pleasure was all ours, Roberto.

Well no FA or Benitez

Don't blame him TBH - at least it's a fair fight

FA vs CFC only ends one way

I'm glad my one liners make you dribble

But I'll let you into a secret, it's called Porn - that's what most people dribble to on the Internet

Reading back on this thread i love how user's get insulted for giving their own opinion.

I remember when their was a couple of members who wanted Ancelotti out back in 2011, and they were branded as "plastic" by some who want Rafa out now, double standards? i think so.

[Changingman_2000 876]

FSW is, and always will be, a cunt (complete and utter). You have to wonder, if the Bin Dippers finished 3rd, and us 4th, would he be happy?, I very much suspect he would. His appointment at least showed that we cant trust Buck and Gourlay. Two total cunts who are only there to be wedged up.

In simple terms, he is earning top dollar to fill his boots and make us shit (His agenda, not Roman's), and he ain't doing a bad job of that so far.

I think one or two of the so called moderators have idea's well above their station and duly lord over it. Very patronizing indeed. Just let it roll.

Benitez thinks he has done enough to earn a long term contract.

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1315086/rafael-benitez-wants-extended-chelsea-stay?cc=4716

"This Chelsea team have enough quality and they're a good squad, but the circumstances of this year have been difficult," stressed Benitez.

"This is a top side and if they continue doing things in the right way they will always be challenging for trophies, but it has been tough for me so far.

"If you analyse all the managers (at Chelsea), how many had a pre-season here? Not me. How many managers have spent massive money here? Not me. How many managers have played in Japan in the middle of the season and have some players injured and some at the African Nations? Only me."

After bringing in Demba Ba to strengthen the Blues' squad, Benitez feels he has done enough todemonstrate he has a long-term vision for the club.

"I want to be at a top side and Chelsea is a top side with great potential. It is a great opportunity.

"I've had private conversations with the people in charge and the owner. They know my ideas, they listen to me, we talk and they have to decide.

"I came in mid-season, so I could not change too much and had to work with the squad I had. I gave my opinions, we signed a striker and we're trying to do what is best for the team and the club.

another brilliant and scintillating performance from the FSW...

rafa can fuck off until he explains the use of substituting azpi for
iva while we were 2-1 down or when we were 1-0 down to corianthians or
0-0 (2-0) down on aggregate and a midfielder down against swansea, he
brought bert for cole.

today i think ba played in the center for a single move and we fuking
scored in that move. yet he kept playing on the wings. no tactical
changes, bad substitution, no motivation of players or atleast FSW
should have been able to get a reply out of the players after the league
cup exit but nothing. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. this fat ass has absolutely
no idea what he is doing here or what he is supposed to do here. he
can,simple put, fuck off

[Ollie 4,400]

Surely he's got like the worst stats since Abramovich took over? I mean even if it's not just about percentage rates, although his win percentage is extremely low, it's that he's lost us a big final, a semi, we've gone further behind the top of the prem, we nearly lost to Brentford whilst seeming to lack real desire in lots of the games. We have got worse since Rafa replaced Robbie, there's no escaping that.

[5354 204]

He should jsut fuck off.

Even if Robbie screw us up, honestly it is a experience for him and the club that is undergoing transition.

But seriously, Rafa? He screwed up Liverpool and Inter and now I have no idea why Roman hired him. Rafa can't even win the the Club world championship. lost the league cup and probably lost the tile as well. we are on the verge of losing the FA cup as well. this 1 of the worst season for the last few years.

[Rmpr 8,977]

I would like to thank all the supporters and members for putting Benitez and his followers in their proper place!

Sacking Rafa is just like winning nPower Championship. You never want to win it in the first place because it means Chelsea got relegated. However, once you do, you dont want to lose it. Same with Benitez, you dont ever want to sack him because you never want to apoint him at all. Nevertheless, once you hire him, we have to celebrate and hope he gets sacked for good!

RAFA OUT!

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

Benitez has confirmed there will be no more incoming transfers for Chelsea this January.

F*CK OFF!
