For Your Perusal!

not a lot to say....Rafa is not better than RDM...end of!....we should have left RDM and supported him at least till the summer when we'll simply let him go, if were not satisfied with the overall outcome of the season....rafa is not a grade up on RDM..and thats wat the numbers are suggesting and thats my belief...the fans protesting at SB are within their right...lets hope for the best for the rest of the season, chelsea has suddenly drawn me closer to God... only God can save our season now and deliver us from rafalation from rafa the gafa..lol

It doesn`t matter who the manager is. Our `Technical Director` along with Roman, are obviously both convinced that the squad was, when the season commenced, good enough to challenge for the PL title, Champions Lge, win the Super Cup and World Club championship and progress suitably in all other cup competitions. Well they were wrong. It doesn`t matter if we employed Pep, Jose, Klopp or even Ferguson. The squad IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. When Jose won the league in 2005, not one ManU or Arsenal Player would have got into our best 11. At present, none of our players would get into Fergusons team, apart from Mata, taking into consideration that Cole and Cech are getting older. We have spent almost 300m since Jose left on average players, so why is this the case? Roman has to look at the poor decisions that have been made, in managerial positions and ensuring that the inexperienced Emenalo has such a prominent role in player identification. What respected quality manager is going to come into such a structure next year and be able to change things around. The success over the last 9 years has been based on Jose`s team. Now we have got people with no football experience, trying to replicate squad construction. We need professionals runing our club, not a group of novices.

The common thing in both of them when they were in charge was "TORRES WAS CRAP UNDER RDM AND is sill continuing his legacy under RAFA"

Force Torres on any manager and the manager would fail. Fact!

SB - I was going to make exactly the same points. In fact, had that game against Manure not gone so disastrously wrong, who knows what would have ensued. That was a big turning point for Robbie.

@chelseayouth: Such marginal differences from what Di Matteo was doing, plus the CWC and COC failings. What was the point in changing at all?

dont be childish editor.how can u judge the two on poits alone.show us goal scored,conceded,and injured players.thats poor and lazy research potraying bias and sentimental.shut up and support ur team.you wanted lamps in the team,rafa gave u and we a loosing games while he is walking and stroling.experience means alot not the bluff on media.infact essien and mirelles could have saved us alot than the mediocre pivot we adore.

3 points is 3 points, lose is lose, draw is draw irrespective of how u go about it, brilliance is brilliance and crap is crap, no need to sugar coat anything

Was rdm constantly booed by the home fans??? Did rdm have a fatigued squared??? Did rdm have to play games every 3 days...well,its good rdm had a better 12 games but its unfair to compare it to rafa's 12games without considerin the circumstances and the working conditions...in as much as mzee69 might sound rude i really think he has a good point,this article portrays bias...

In the seaon to come, we need to see the manager given time to hold his team and call the shots sice it has become a chelsea problem when it comes to interferance from the board

Rafa is just s*** of a coach, his face on d bench only brings all forms of negativity.
