The Benitez Thread

[GodZola 630]

Could do with some good ole common sense here......

Well Madrid fans want Rafa & FSW has apparently said its his dream club, also they don't won't Jose - we're the opposite (well majority)

If only things in life were that simple................roll(y) on the summer!

[Muzchap 8,966]

Just heard the cunts interview. The cunt was pleased with the performance?! fucking hell. he must have hoovered up a serious amount of marching powder before he came up out with that pony.

Lol I love changinman's post always straight to the point with a couple of expletives

Keep up the good work dude - you posting means I don't have to

(Except to congratulate you of course!)

[Changingman_2000 876]

TFSW's positive spin on this will be that we are now unbeaten in four, Average enough as it sounds, even more so when you consider that the four games are Sparta twice, Wigan and Brentford.

I had a scouse driver delivering to my work today, I caught site of my Chels badge and was giving it large about the wankstain. I asked him if, given the chance, would have have him back?, he replied "no" without a second thought, saying that he was out of his depth and the Champs League team was held together by Gerrard, and that, that team, had actually been Houlliers team.

Either way, he is still a Thrush (Irritating cunt)

Now that is funny. Most dirty red scousers that I have come across think like rupert & that CFC fans don't deserve the brilliance of torrid & telly tubby. I can't wait for this nightmare to end.

Anyone agree with his sub of Hazard for Eden?

I would of much prefer Hazard for Mikel and bring Oscar into a pivot role....

[xPetrCechx 13,586]

On Sunday's Premier League game away at Manchester City
'It's an important game, if we win we will be closer, but we still have a lot of games to play and I think the race for the top four will run until the end of the season.'

Preparing the arguments after we will lose to city...

[MetsajCFC 1,255]

Inter beat Barcelona despite a stupid red card in the Semi Final of the Champions League. They progress to the final to beat Bayern Munich.

Rafa Benitez becomes their manager the following season. The players are upset with his methods as he destroys the club, leaving them now in Serie A's mid-table.

Sound familiar?

They've also made weird transfer decisions, which are no way connected to Rafa Benitez. For example selling Eto'o and having contractual bust up with Sneijder. Signing unproven talent, can't expect them to be what they were with the squad they've got.

[MetsajCFC 1,255]

Mikel hasn't played for Chelsea for a long time, he needs the minutes to shift back in. Oscar on the other hand has played 48 matches for us already this season (incl. friendlies and all that) which is alot for a 21 year old. And Oscar isn't a CMF or DMF as many want him to be. He is an attacking midfielder, his natural position is where Mata plays. Not on the wing nor double pivot.

[Korea 734]

Mikel didn't rearlly play well. He didn't stop the counters and Chelsea needed to score ASAP, not add a potential 30 more mins to the contest. Maybe, I dont really see it, however, I don't really understand what Mikel brought to the team yesterday....

Benitez: Qualify for the Champions League, and then make way for Jose, says Gullit

Telegraph: Ruud Gullitt says Chelsea striker Fernando Torres 'cost Roberto Di Matteo’s head' as manager in stinging attack

Ruud
Gullit launched another stinging attack on Fernando Torres today,
claiming the striker “cost Robbie Di Matteo’s head” as Chelsea manager
and accusing him of doing nothing to improve under Rafael Benitez.

Gullit,
who helped spearhead the modern Stamford Bridge revolution, told
Telegraph Sport that Torres only got in the team at all because he cost a
record £50 million and that he would be on the bench or sold were he to
have been signed for £10 million.

Former Holland star Gullit has
been one of Torres’s fiercest critics, suggesting last year it felt
like Chelsea were “playing with 10 men” with the Spaniard on the pitch.

Benitez’s
appointment as interim manager following Di Matteo’s November sacking
was meant to revitalise Torres but the 28-year-old has scored only once
in 13 games since Christmas.

An impassioned Gullit said: “Do you think he did something to change my mind?

“The dismissal of Robbie Di Matteo had to do also with Torres.

“They
look at their investment and they think, ‘Let him play’. Benitez does
the same thing and I don’t see it, it doesn’t happen.”

“It’s up
to Torres to show that he is the player that I still think he can be.
But show it to me – please. Show… it… to… me. I like him as a player, I
want him to do well.

“I am critical about him because he’s the
‘best’ player. He’s a Spanish international, he’s a World Cup winner, so
can I expect something a little bit more of him? It’s easy.

“I want to know what’s going on in his head. I have no clue. It’s not the coach, it’s him. But what is it? What is it?

“Look,
he’s played all the time. If he wasn’t that expensive, he would be on
the bench every week – for sure. And don’t tell me no.

“If you paid so much money for him, you want to see something back, of course. As an owner, you think, ‘Maybe it’s the coach?’.

“You try to find out what you’re investment is doing.

“Even with someone speaking his own language, who pampers him, who backs him up, I haven’t seen it.”

Torres
is on his fourth Chelsea manager already and could be playing for a
fifth next season unless Benitez’s contract is extended in defiance of
the supporter revolt against him.

“I would be surprised if he stays with what the fans think,” said Gullit, who backed Jose Mourinho to return to Stamford Bridge.

Relations
between Real Madrid boss Mourinho and Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich
have thawed since the former’s acrimonious departure five and a half
years ago.

But many doubt whether Abramovich would give the Portuguese as much control as he enjoyed first time round.

“If you want him back, you have to,” Gullit said. “When he comes, he wants to have control.”

Benitez surviving until the summer would appear to depend on Chelsea remaining on course to qualify for the Champions League.

He
would also like to win the Europa League, something that would help
boost England’s dwindling co-efficient and reduce the risk of them
losing one of their four Champions League spots.

Gullit felt English clubs would take the Europa League more seriously if one of their places went to another nation.

“That would really wake them up,” he said. “The other countries are woken up already.”

SO MUCH LOVE FOR RUUD GULLIT!!!

Roman let's get him on the board m8.

What a delusional idiot! At least he confirmed he isn't staying around after June.

[5354 204]

to be honest, even if benitez wins the europa or qualify for CL, noway roman gonna give him the job.

and this is a smacking call to roman and the board that the torres' 50m is a waste. much worst thn shevchenko imo.

but to give torres some credit, he did play a part in leading us to our first CL.

[Bosnian Blue 2,471]

to be honest, even if benitez wins the europa or qualify for CL, noway roman gonna give him the job.

I wouldnt be so sure. A year ago nobody believed he will even be under consideration for the job. Roman doesnt care about the supporters.

I saw Ruud at the CL Final he was jumping around delighted. Even shook his hand. He still has great love for Chelsea and managed to get on the pitch - lol

Well said Ruud - you've summed up what every Chelsea fan is thinking

[Jype 6,398]

Is he trying to wind us up on purpose? He got his tactics as well as the lineup wrong from the start and what in the name of fuck were those substitutions about? Ramires was having a shocker, perhaps the worst performance I've seen a Chelsea player come up with so far this season (with Torres in the team that's saying a lot) and anyone who was watching the game realized it about 20 minutes in, but our fraud of a manager still insisted on keeping him on the pitch for the whole 90 minutes and took off players who may not have had the best games off their careers either but at least they were not on the brink of being sent off and didn't fuck up all our attacks. Like seen on Thursday, Hazard is a player capable of scoring a screamer out of nowhere, can't see Ramires doing the same so why the fuck did he stay on the pitch, especially when we were trailing the game?

Rafael Benitez, you are a cunt.

[Fulham Broadway 17,378]

We have every player in the squad available and we end up with Ramires right back and a centre back and attacking midfielder playing the holding roll. Hazard off and Oscar on the left. Unbefuckingleivable

This is just about our best team and we don't look a top 4 side under this cunt.

Sack the Fat Fucker now

[CHOULO19 24,332]

We had no shape whatsoever after his substitutions, we were even looking like the better side in the second half before that. You can't throw Luiz in midfield and put Ramires at RB in the middle of the game. This is not FIFA. And can someone tell what formation were we playing after Torres came on?!

I honestly don't think we will make top 4 with Benitez. FFS I'd take Kean over the FSW about now!
