I don't think the club is a joke. That would include the players. Just the structure. You have one guy and his 'advisers' just chopping and changing as he sees fit. I think a lot of journalists have this view.
At one point Ferguson was a game away from being sacked iirc

There's no way Chelsea would be here with Roman so you just got to deal.
He won you 3 league titles. The Champions League. Gave you Drogba, Mata, Oscar and Hazard.
This is the price you must pay!

I know. As Fady said I am extremely grateful for what Roman had given the club. It is just I can't see these younger players sticking around with constant manager changes.
My bad, read it incorrectly. The dilemma is the cause of the structure being a joke is also the reason of many of the club's recent successes.
Wow, is this for real? But I mean - even if it was; SIX years is an incredible amount of time. We can barely reach one year with one guy these days.
Oh yeah and congrats to the Juve fans here! You guys dominated us badly.
I agree with your statement - constant managerial changes may very much instill a sense of instability. Not good after we brought in so many promising youngsters under RDM.
What if things became even WORSE though? Remember what happened to Wolves after they sacked Mick?

You want somebody to drop off your CV? You can just email it to him:
Roman.Abramovic@chelsea.com
Nope. I don't have a clue if that is real or not.
So goal.com reiterates Kyoufu's post - that Pep will not cut his vacation short. Goal.com also reports that Benitez is set to be the Chelsea manager on a short-term basis.
Believable. Since it is decided on being a short term basis from the start lol.
You are a wizard my friend, you can make things happen

I know. It's sad because this is the reason a lot of Chelsea fans don't really care any more.
Anyway, someone needs to update the gif

Will be very interesting to see how Benitez does if he gets the job.
He's definitely a good manager but I'm really not sure if he's as good as Liverpool fans say/remember him.
But any capable manager has a chance with Chelsea's team and the money available.

Thing is, I felt he was more patient "than usual" with AVB, hence I was hoping his patience has improved overall :/
That gif is awesome. Someone has to gif my avatar onto that.

I wasn't big on football during Rafa's days - but wasn't Liverpool doing really badly under him as time went on?

The team he built challenged for the title one season. It was a good team but that years United team was different class.

Always did well in the CL. I didn't find the football particularly impressive in terms of style, very tactically cute however.
He did work under shit owners which didn't help.
I think he was good there but not brilliant.

Did everyone see the Drogba loan story?

Him trying to get clearance for a loan? I would take him back still :lol
Edit - Argh! You stealth edited!
Nope. Spill.
The picture of Benitez the BBC are using is really unflattering :lol. Not the most flattering of portraits and to add insult to injury they put him next to pictures of Pep & Di Matteo in suits. Even at his best Rafa couldn't compare to those 2 in the looks department.
edit: I've said it before, but that CL win has really given some a ridiculous view of Drogba's last few years at Chelsea. He was once a great player, but his league performances in his final 2 seasons were shocking, a couple of good performances in cups doesn't change that. He is definitely not an answer.

oh my god. chelsea are hilariously terrible.
weird to see chelsea fans i know on facebook shit all over the suggestion of benitez (one wanted to protest outside stamford bridge if he was appointed :/). i don't agree with the deification of him by liverpool fans but he's certainly a very very good manager, i didn't know he was that disliked.

We can only hope.
a robot made out of glas?
So this pretty much confirms it, Carles Puyol is a robot.
The English media did a pretty good job on him for the average uninformed fan, see Villa for another example.
And more specifically for Chelsea, there is probably some dislike due to Mourinho, who generally didn't like Rafa and was beaten twice by him in the Champions league semi-final.

If Vilanova wins silverware with Barca this year, does that mean every major club will automatically see him as the messiah figure to bring them success, and to the fans, play like Barcelona? Why the heck do so many people want Guardiola?
Apparently he did a great job with Barca B and turned an already great team into GOAT team. I don't know if that's enough to proclaim him an amazing manager, but it must count for something.
He laid the foundation. Vilanova has basically taken over without changing much, if anything.
