Muzchap 8,966 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 So you believe that load of pony then?Well I actually questioned it initially - was this a ploy to 'gain acceptance'...?We all know Pep is the man he wants and if Pep is not available until June, then this is it...My worry is in June, Pep will say 'get ta fuck' - and we'll be with FSW forever...However, he has until June to win me over, I think he did great @ Valencia and was always a thorn in our side at Liverpool, so if he can get us winning trophies, playing well then I'll be happy...

The only place to be 11,313 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Rafa Benitez quotes on ChelseaChelsea supporters might not like these quotes"Chelseais a big club with fantastic players, every manager wants to coach a such a big team. But I would never take that job, in respect for my former team at Liverpool, no matter what. For me there is only one club in England, and that's Liverpool."(2007)"If Chelseaare naive and pure then I'm Little Red Riding Hood." (2007)"We don't need to give away flags for our fans to wave - our supporters are always there with their hearts, and that is all we need. It's the passion of the fans that helps to win matches - not flags." (in regards to the 2007 Champions League semi-final between the sides. The quote has been immortalised in a plaque at Liverpool's training ground)"I'm sure Chelseado not like playing Liverpool. When they are talking and talking and talking before the game it means they are worried. Maybe they're afraid?" (on the same tie)"We were good friends until Liverpool started winning, then he started changing his mind." (on thenChelseaboss Jose Mourinho)"After the game, Sheila, who was sitting right in line in the main stand, said to me that the ball had crossed the line. She is a very honest person and that was good enough for me. It was a goal." (on taking his secretary's word that Luis Garcia's so-called 'ghost goal' had crossed the line in the 2005 Champions League semi-final between the sides)"To me, Arsenal played much better football two or three years ago. They won matches and were exciting to watch. Barcelona and Milan too. They create excitement so how can you say Chelseaare the best in the world?" (after Chelsea's first Premier League title win) Leagues: Premier League Teams: Chelsea F.C.I know it's annoying, but could you post the sources for those quotes. When he said them, who he said them to etc.So you believe that load of pony then?Yes. Everything is geared towards securing the services of Guardiola in the summer. It's the biggest open secret in football.The reason Benitez was appointed was partly due to his relationship with Torres (whether we like it or not he's a £50 million investment), and partly because he was the best available manager who would accept what was essentially a six month contract.Can you think of a single better manager who was available and a realistic target (and let's remember that Roman didn't want Robbie in charge so that's a no-go)?

Rupert 130 Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 There is a certain hypocrisy on the part of those who boo Rafa for defending his team, Liverpool, when it was being constantly attacked in the press by Mourinho and Ferguson the two most active members of the anti-LFC tag team. The same people were delighted that Ferguson and Mourinho used "mind games" to good effect. But they don't like it when Rafa used them back successfully. Mourinho, for example, used to boast about silencing the KOP. In one game he ran towards the KOP with his finger on his lips after Chelsea scored.The guy in a post above who "quoted" Rafa as saying that he and Mourinho were friends until Rafa started winning got that (and several other quotes) wrong. Rafa said that about Ferguson, Mourinho boasted that he had been offered the LFC job before Rafa. LFC subsequently denied it and said Rafa was always their first choice. The fact is that Mourinho always wanted the Man Utd job (even when he was at Chelsea) and played politics with Ferguson against Rafa in the hope of sucking up to Man Utd. Mourinho still wants the Man Utd job. Rafa is the only manager who has stood up to Ferguson. People said his "rant" about "facts" cost LFC. The fact is that LFC won more games after the "rant" than before. Rafa does not have a six month contract with Chelsea. He has an 18 month contract despite the fact that he has agreed to a review at the end of six months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
