  1. 1. Rafa Out?



Recommended Posts

People said to get behind the coach for the good of the club, and to give him a chance to prove himself. You calling people (who are Chelsea fans just like you apparently are) wankers is just you embarrassing yourself.

Believe he was calling the board, not the fans.

We were first for quite a while...United never made it out of their group last season...those things happen...we are in a very tough group...

I'm not saying Robbie did a perfect job, but we could have given him more time without disturbing the squad harmony, destroying our Europeam reputation and putting shitload of pressure on the whole club...then once the season was complete we could've assessed everything and made a better decision...

Exactly. There was no need for knee jerk reaction to fire RDM & replace him w/ Telly Tubby. That move is like restarting a computer. Start from scratch again. Things were not that bad w/ RDM @ the helm. 3rd in the league. Advanced over manure in the League Cup. Needed to prep for the CWC. Still had a chance in Europe. Still FA Cup to play for. Now, we have telly tubby demanding to have the pocket book open so he can spend money & waste players like he did @ l'puke. Awesome Command decision there :rolleyes:

Roman would never swallow his pride, never!

That and Jose was treated like crap..in his last year..the falling out in January then his eventual sacking in September.The board are still mental why come to a club where nothing has changed and you are unlikely to have control over who comes and goes.

This is when problems started..no logic behind his sacking..no logic behind Ray Wilkins...it hasnt really done much good in the long run.Still trying find a Manager...

Exactly!They had an easy group really,looked down on it and ended up going to Europa.Most the fans accepted that in a 'lets just try and win this because we havent yet' sorta way.There were the odd 'Fergie out' ones that were quickly set back and put stright

Everythings gone to pieces really..a Manager none of the fans want and not willing to accept.And cant see the 16 minute chanting ending anytime soon.No sign yet of improvement and a ton of games coming up...

What I can't understand is, how can our board and Roman expect us to play fluid attacking football without a deadly striker and with young players who are still adapting to the league, new life and the language? It was always going to take time...

Look at Mata in his previous season...he did alright, but now he is simply on a different level.

Ramires was nothing special in his 1st season but look at him now?

It simply takes time.

And now what? We will get awful results, pressure will build up and we will go into panic mode. Teams (read: Atletico Madrid) will pull our balls for money and milk us like cows on a milk farm ...

Rafa can't asses the squad in a month ... Robbie has been through hell with those lads and he knew exactly who, how, when and why does something. He kept playing Torres? Well yeah, blondie's confidence was so low that if he was put on a bench he would've sulked so much we could have only used him to carry towels around...this way it was an opportunity to get him going in order to fetch a better price once we decide to sell him...

It was so calm with Robbie...he had that look in him that was saying "Everything will be fine" ... now? Anything can happen.

What we, as fans can do is to stop creating such a big fuss about everything and start supporting the team like fanatics. They need us now more then ever.

I really miss him... :(

Sometimes, football is not about results...there is something much more higher and delicate some people will never understand...

Good bye Robbie and thank you for everything. We will never forget what you did for us! I wish you all the best in the future of your career :)

That would be the same Arsenal who are 7 places below us and lost at home to Swansea today?

And how is almost certainly getting knocked out of the Champions League a 'rather good start to the season'?

7 below but only 5 points.They win next week and we loose..2 point gap.Hopfully wont happen but their league postions looks worse then it is really.We're lucky they didnt win today

Give Benitez time,but the problem is that he won´t bench Torres and that is our problem.We always play with ten men and this makes me really sad,because last season we had Drogba,who scored some fantastic goals.We have to give Benitez time to be succesful.The funny thing is no one is capable of making Torres better.The manager,who realizes that,will be succesful at our club,because then we will finally start playing with 11 men.He only has to sell him.

Give Benitez time!! I would like to give him 5years for fraud & impersonation.

I can think of one VERY good reason:

We sack ANOTHER manager after only 7 days of being in charge. Our club would be a compelte laughing stock. Could you ever imagine any other manager taking charge after we had sacked our previous manager after 7 days?

You think we are not now? you can not be reading or listening to the media then, I want him out NOW, tomorrow or the next day is too late.

This comes back to the same old point about Roman never wanting Robbie in as manager in the first place. He felt Benitez would be the better bet for the short-term and there's no way of knowing if he was right or not.

What I am pointing out is that things weren't exactly rosy before Benitez and we're suffering from the same problems time and time again.

Thank you very much. It was absolutely aimed at the board. But that clown spat his dummy out and away he went. Still not received an apology! :clown:

I apologise. When you said 'the board' I assumed you meant this board/forum. It was a misunderstanding, although not quite sure you had to call me a classless wanker. But I don't really want a discussion on it.

It's all very well wanting him out, but who exactly do we get in?

The irony of it all is that Slim wont piss off as he's been lumped in with an 18 month contract so he aint going to walk anytime soon. He's fucked up Chels like he fucked up Inter after he followed Jose there. If RA binned him then I would honestly have Mark Hughes in all day long, even as an intern, At least his heart is in it and he's Chels. How about Poyet? Clarke? Moyes? Lambert? You may think twice about Lambert but he would sort our team out. He has fuck all to work with at Vanilla and I think would jump at the chance.

The Fat Controller, for all we know, it sitting sniggering, and thinking "Nice one". Chances are he aint, but we ALL know his opinion of us. Football Focus last week, Peter Schmeichel said that the cunt had said that he would never, ever manage Chelsea, ever. So why is the cunt here and why did that Russian knob jockey employ him.

Honestly, I am royally fucked off about this.

He probably felt it was his chance to get himself back out there and build back up his reputation..2 years out the bussiness surley wants to have offers pouring in after this.However in reality it is very quickly backfiring.Want to see things turn out because this is pure shite and be nice to have something to be cheerful about.

Does it have to be anyone in particular or just a manager with a contract that says he can't be sacked for 5 years?

With money we have, anyone good would suceed in couple seasons. Avb, Rdm, Ancelotti, Mourinho,...even Saf wasnt best in beggining.

But I would prefer someone classy, someone that had healthy relationship with our club in past, someone that can create nice sucessful football team, respected and loyal. Pep for example. But the board should stay from transfer decisions and let it to manager. Only then, we would have players we need and that are required to improve and extend squad as whole.

Please get Pep in summer, and let him do the job alone. Sign striker that suits us, backup striker, winger, CM, maybe CB and LB and involve our youth players in team. Do that in two-three seasons, and we should have well organised club. But sure board will fuck this up again, because they are not patient.

Exactly and thats gana be off putting if some other club comes along less known for sacking managers.If we do get Pep or whoever we get in summer they need to be given time!Not half a season....

I never said things were ideal ... but sometimes it's better to apply slight repairs then to go on a buy a new fucking car that you have no idea how will work ...
