Look, I get you're sad that a club legend was thrown out for what Roman perceives as "poor performance", but present form for him is obviously the most important, certainly above sentimentality. Seeing how Roman reacted to the Champions League win you could see how it didn't mean as much to him as he had hoped, and that barely holding on in a game is not what he envisages Chelsea to be nor how you should win trophies and make landmark history.

Since then he's reinvested many more millions, and rightly or wrongly wants Benitez as a caretaker coach until he can get someone permanent lined up. Why on earth you think 'Rafa out' is sensible at this point is idiotic, you'd lose your chance at strengthening according to specific demands in the transfer window and will have to do with "whoever Roman decides is good", and have to attract yet another manager to the club for potentially five months before they may be potentially fired/contract not renewed.

Believe it or not, but there isn't along line of coaches wishing to join Roman's Chelsea manager merry-go-round right now. The very top ones are currently managing, and the 'top class' coaches which are tempted realise the need for instant results and would likely want to guarantee a strong beginning to the role by being able to spend to mould the side as they wish to during the initial window.

Roman will do what he wants regardless of who is in charge so that doesn't matter. I fully understand this is not all Rafa's fault and actually blame Roman and his joke of yes men who do his dirty work more than Rafa. All i am saying is this is not the right solution for the club or even for Roman.

Just play like that from the first minute. Every game. From the first minute. Jesus.

Oscar playing deep alongside Lampard, who isnt breaking forwards at all cost, looks like Rafa had some words with him.

It's easier when you say it Mike. All those players out, Lampard in, and the drama is on.

What drives me mad watching Chelsea is that it should be that easy! But no, the latest obsession is Falcao!

I think I'd actually go mad as a Chelsea fan.

To be fair, the fact that Chelsea don't have a striker worth his salt is a pretty big deal.
 
Chelsea switch to 4-2-3-1, Lampard is clearly told to never move. Score 5 goals.

Its easy when you have the right players.

And yes, we need a clinical striker.


EDIT: Oh, ****, he scored.
 
1-5, Rafa out, and Torres cant score.

Just another day is this thread.
 
If Roman has any sense, he will find cash for a DM and DLP in jan and then pick up Llorente in the summer. Because Rafa could finish with a title challenge with more balance.
 
Seriously are you not telling me this is a perfect time to bring one of the young lads on? No pressure in a massive game like this is sensational experience.
 
If bringing on Paulo Ferreira isn't adding insult to injury, I don't know what is.

Oh my word, you really will find anything to criticise Rafa with, won't you? If precious Bobby had done that there wouldn't be a peep.
