termninja 5,290 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 2 year contract? My guess is that Robbie didn't want to accept 1y one, and he was right. Good thing to hear, fully deserved for doing the impossible. Congrats Robbie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane 2,275 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Torres will be the death of him.Hopefully he'll drop Nando, then he'll throw his toys out of the pram again and then gets sold.Chelsea F.C is better off without Torres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Our record against top teams was shocking last season in the Premier League, did you know we only won one big team once, Man City at the Bridge.Mostly thanks to AVB and some incompetent refereeing decisions along the way.

Good thing to hear, fully deserved for doing the impossible.Congrats Robbie!They probably give him a 2-year deal instead of 1 because it will kinda get rid of the notion that he will just be keeping seat warm for Guardiola as that might unsettle the team next season.

Shane 2,275 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I actually believe RDM can and will get much better out of torres.Carlo managed great strikers such as Sheva, Inzaghi etc, and he couldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Mostly thanks to AVB and some incompetent refereeing decisions along the way.Tbf, we didn't do much better under Robbie. Drew vs Arsenal and Twatenham and lost to the scum. As a matter of fact, our league form under RDM was worse than AVB.I think there is no need to blame the refereeing or Andre, we have to acknowledge that our squad just wasn't good enough last season.

As a matter of fact, our league form under RDM was worse than AVB.Based on stats. But stats don't tell the full story about how many times we played a weaker side due to CL or Fa cup.We drew away at Arsenal, yes, but we made like 9 changes for that game lol.

Personally, I blame AVB for the 2 home defeats to Arsenal and Liverpool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I blame AVB for the 2 home defeats to Arsenal and Liverpool.We did not loose the tittle in two or three games . I realize that some games had special circumstances, but my point was that last season's squad will never win the league even with better luck and only the league to concentrate on.

AndersonBLUE 819 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 No we lost a few games early on and after we beat Man City 2-1, we went on a shit streak for ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
