I do feel a bit sorry for him.

He should never have been on the shortlist for managers to speak to about the job. Seriously though, I think fans would rather have had John Terry as their manager.

Yes the fans have not got behind him, but the team and the fans didn't want him and didn't believe in him even before he arrived and you can say that the players should be professional about this and play but lets face it even if they were professional about it they'd still be working 50% the rate than what they would be working if they believed in the manager

Worst win rate of any Chelsea manager in the roman Era
Awful negative tactics
Horrible goatee
Constant praise and defence of Torres even when he's crap but not for anyone else
Crap subs

The term "interim manager" used everywhere was unnecessary

-------

Still don't get the problem with this, he is the interim manager so what else is he going to be called? He's not the first interim manager in football ffs

Ah the win rate, that is crucial, as is the goatee!

He inherited a team that was already in terrible form with obvious gaps in the squad.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Yes there were and still are big gaps in the squad but I don´t see how you can say we were in terrible form.

We played some of the best football I´ve ever seen a Chelsea side play at the beginning of the season under Di Matteo.

Under RDM we were dominating games but just not managing to win and conceding soft goals. Under Rafa we are playing crap football, constantly on the backfoot and still concede soft goals

2 wins in the last 8 for a title challenging team is what I call terrible form, Superb.

For

European Champion and multi-trophy winning manager.

Against:-

He's not a rookie like Di Matteo.

My mum hardly watches football and doesn't even know the offside rule.... and even she questions his substitutions and why he starts Torres instead of Ba

if she knows this... why doesn't he!?

That's why your mum is your mum and not a multi-trophy winning manager in three countries.

Teenagers citing their mums as knowing more than a multi-trophy winning manager, really just confirms this all. You have no clue.

You're still claiming Rafa to be a "Master Tactician"

.....enough said

Yeh Rafas so great that's why he had been out of work 2 years and will likely never get a job again after the finally leaves us

I don't need to claim anything, he's confirmed it throughout his career. I'm sure at your age you believe your mum knows everything but when you're all grown up, you'll see this is not the case and in actual fact a multi-trophy winning manager of three countries knows how to manage.

Rodgers Revo,

I'm struggling to work out what he knows how to manage... considering he's clearly not managed us very well, he's not managed the team very well, he's not got your fans' lovechild Cli-Torres well....

has he managed anything well for Chelsea?

find me 5 things he's managed at our club?

i'll start you off for the first 3.

1) he managed to get us knocked out of 3 tournaments, being the league cup, world club cup and clearly out of the premier league.

2) he's managed to upset the fans and team more and more since he's taken over

3) he's managed to crack again under the pressure in front of the media and blame the "plastic" fans for the reason of the teams performances...

RDM will always be classed as a European champion, however the people around who witnessed it, know the real story.

"RDM is less of a rookie than Brendan Rogers"

No he isn't.

could have predicted the same response from ANY Liverpool fan

Inter Milan happened, he won two trophies and due to the World Club Cup, which he won, they had games in hand over AC. He saw the club would fall and asked for funds to buy players having sold players, with others getting old. He made an ultimatum, they sacked him, he was proved correct and has been since.

Website? None. I get my opinions by looking at what happens and forming it. I don't follow websites and newspapers like a sheep like th epeople who keep claiming Rafa failed at Inter. First manager in the history of the world to fail by winning two trophies.

Rodger's Revo

but your claiming that RDM failed.... so Rafa's not the "First manager in the history of the world" at failing by winning 2 trophies
