I hope there are no manager changes until the summer. Rafa as interim Chelsea manager would be bad for us.

Pep Guardiola would not go to Chelsea. It would be far too much work for him to bring the Barca style to Chelsea, it would take years of development and he would know that he would only be given a matter of months to make an impactComment

Amid a whole host of "Please God noooooooooo" type comments:Originally posted by Phoenix06 View PostOne Chelsea forum response to Rafa being linked:
I can see him holding out for the Real Madrid job to be honest if Mourinho leaves.
Mourinho would then come back to Chelsea and build a dynasty (should do that at Real Madrid with those players).
I've long thought that Roman, for all he has done with his money, knows next to feck all about football. If he ever gave the job to Rafa it would confirm it.
As Rafa himself would say.................... Fact.

****ing ****e manager!!Comment

I'm not sure Rafa and Chelsea are the best fit tbh. Roman want's instant succes with no patience, and Rafa is really a type of manager that works in the long term. I know he had instant succes in Europe with us, but I still think the long term approach is not what Roman is looking for, and the conflict would quickly come to the surface. The same reason why Arnesen never worked out there.
I'm slightly split on whether I wanted Rafa to get this job or not. Seing him as manager for one of our rivals, with the history there is, would be though, but on the other hand I really hope Rafa get's a job of that caliber and not say Wolves, Villa or some other midtable team.
He deserves another chance with another big club, not to sink away with a midtable team.Comment

Working with ****e owners.
Signings like Reina, Johnson, Arbeloa, Agger, Skrtel, Aurelio, Lucas, Alonso, Mascherano, Garcia, Torres, Ngog, Riera, Kuyt, Benayoun.
Yup, absolute rubbish that Benitez.
Anyway, **** 'em. Shows how little Chelsea fans actually know.
They listen to Sky Sports, watch Sunday Supplement, read The Sun and worship the words of Barclay & Samuel etc.
This is also a club that put the Shankly Gates on their Torres banner.
They can **** off.

Why would you include Ngog and Riera in that list?

Ngog for £1.5m was quite a decent signing and Riera is the best left midfielder we've had in years. Only £6m (?) too.Originally posted by Chrono View PostWhy would you include Ngog and Riera in that list?
£7.5m in total for those two. They weren't world beaters but it shows that Rafa can spot a good deal.Comment

I don't think you can put Riera and N'Gog in the best signings list alongside Mascher, Xabi, Torres, Agger, Yossi etc. May be a step below them but not bad signings in any way.Patience when teased often, transforms into rageComment

Argh why the **** are you two looking into it like that?
Point I'm trying to make is that Rafa didn't need to spend £££'s to make a decent signing. Look at the bigger picture, you cunts. :bird:Comment
