Who do you turn to after that then? The obvious answer from Chelsea fans is Pep, but I'd be extremely suprised if he came and I don't think he will because he doesn't want someone like Abramovich at the top.

Without Pep I can't think who else there is... return of Mourinho (if he wanted it) could be an option. But apart from that I can't think of someone who would take it who is "World Class" reputation.

Thats a question for Roman.


Pep is not coming in my opinion, he is a smart man. Not sure if I want him either.
Who do I want? The ultimate choice - Jose. Any ******* day.
 
It's not a question of who I/we want. I want Moyes for the long-term, that doesn't mean anything. Our wishes mean nothing.

Pff. There are still Franz Beckenbauer, Giovanni Trappatonni, Luis Aragonés and Cesar Luis Menotti.

The way Chelsea aka Roman disposed of him last time I just can't see it. Not only this I do not see Mourinho as the type to "quit", unless he wins the Champions League with Real Madrid this season, I doubt he will leave on such a bad note. Doesn't seem like his way at all.

Not really. Their relationship has been repaired. Roman said sorry to him and even bought him a Ferrari :D

And his daughter is coming to England to study. Mourinho has said that he would like the family to be with her in England. Plus he wants to come back home anyways :P

I'm not going to lie, as a neutral the only reason to watch Chelsea right now is so i can laugh how a team can be CL winner, blow 75 milion on transfers and still have completely no shape, style , no tactical indentiy of its own.

Its like watching those *** vs. Rest of the World/World's Best XI games that would have 11 random players who've never met before fly in from all over the planet for a charity match.

I dont really understand how we 'blew' 75 million on transfers.

We bought some of the best young talent in the world. Players like Hazard and Oscar have the potential to go on and become brilliant players. Moses is a proven EPL player. Marin is a talented if underused player. Azpilicueta has looked class for us in the EPL.

Building a new team with a new identity takes time. Yes we have not helped ourselves at all but I really dont see how we blew money. In my opinion, we bought very smartly.

Team is being built for the future. Its not like we have to win trophies now. Plus Oscar was brought in in order to eventually move into a deeper role. We can still go for Moutinho in January.

Then its better for us. That means he will bring in the required players in January ... All I am saying was that just because we spent heavily in the transfer market does not automatically mean we should be challenging for major trophies. Its clear as day this team is being built for the future.

Built for the future, doesn't prevent balance. Of course you need to compete for trophies now. That same effect cost two managers their job, did it not?

Moutinho more intent on Spurs, if he chooses to leave.

Chelsea are more imbalanced than United, and that's saying something.

Actually it means exactly that. It always has with Roman. After all isnt this what Chelsea fans were saying to justfying getting rid of AVB

Even if he is building for the future, saying you don't need to win trophies now is dumb because this is what he's done before.
Spend huge amounts of money and demanded trophies from it, the only difference is he's buying younger players now.

Problem you'll have is Roman can only realistically throw so much more into the team and if they keep to the same completely imbalanced team they have now it'll fail horribly.

Your looking at it from Roman's perspective while I am looking at it from a fan's perspective. And he obviously will not be keeping the same imbalanced team. We will be bringing in a midfielder surely in January especially after Romeu's injury.

But Roman's perspective is the only one that matters, he's a very demanding owner and seems like he couldn't give a **** what the fans want. That's why they get through so many managers pointlessly.

Well its not like we have suffered very badly because of it.

I dunno, maybe you have. Chelsea should have had a decade-long dynasty at the peak of English football. With Mourinho at the helm and endless funds there would've been little other teams could've done to stop you.
