I laughed at Rafa complaining about 'interim' title and the lack of respect that comes with the word. That respect has to be earned through hard work. Good man management skills quickly get you the respect of the players and not insulting the fans goes a long way too as far as the supporters' trust in the manager is concerned. Hiddink and Di Matteo didn't do too badly during their periods as interim managers, so maybe Benitez should look in the mirror every once in a while and find some faults in himself too and not just blame everyone else for his problems.

I would honestly take Avram Grant back for the rest of the season, anyone other than Benitez would be a step in the right direction. I know there aren't many options out there but at this point I would take literally anyone, at least it would remove all the hostile atmosphere around the club and the players started giving a fuck again when they wouldn't have to work with a clueless idiot like Rafael Benitez any more.

As I have been telling the goons on her for some time, Rafa never said the things attributed to him in 2007. But some of you goons don't care about the truth. The fact is that Mastermind Rafa kicked Mourinho's Chelsea out of two CL semi-finals and an FA Cup. The goons are sore losers.

Here is what Ian Herbert wrote today (something I have told the goons on here several times in the last few months).

"Little did he imagine when doing so just how many ways to discredit him there would be. The first materialised barely a day into his tenure, when a 2007 quote ascribed to him was raked up. "Chelsea is a big club with fantastic players. Every manager wants to coach a big team. But I would never take that job, in respect for my former team at Liverpool. No matter what," he was quoted as saying. Benitez was Liverpool manager in 2007, so how could he have called them his "former club" back then?

The quote, it turned out, was fabricated – disseminated by a 15-year-old tweeter from the Czech Republic who was a fan of Benitez, felt betrayed by his appointment at Chelsea and decided to cause him some trouble. The boy's Twitter avatar photo was a cartoon of his hero Benitez. But the lie was half way around the world before the truth could pull its trousers on. The "quote" was widely published and became a part of the "Benitez hates Chelsea" myth."

The bottom line is Rafa is too good for the Chelsea boo boys and he and everyone else in football is entitled to feel contempt not only at the goonish boo boys but also those who allow them to get away with it.

You have a right to express you opinion no matter how unpopular it is. But you do not, however, have the right to aim insults at anyone here.

I've had some news from my mate at the training ground.

Put your money on this man.......................

jose_mourinho_981572c.jpg

I just can't see it, no matter how much i try n think it can happen. I know there are so many reasons why it should happen which i've mentioned in thee appropriate thread but it just seems too good to be true, like me being a millionaire. I just feel we'll get someone random from abroad who hardly anyone knows. We're running out of options. Still... anyone but this guy we have now will be a plus i suppose.

Imagine this team playing like they have been lately under Jose... they'd get the biggest of all bashings. He certainly wouldn't accept top 4 as the goal before the season.

Haha it's funny how a title all of a sudden determines results. Apparently 'interim manager' can either win you the CL and get you knocked out of it. #LOGIC

No rafa, you title or the fans are not the reason why we lose games. It's your pea brain tactics and fat under your chin.
