Chelsea v Benfica

[Deleted member 1740]

Hopefully it'll be a good game and not spoilt by poor refereeing decisions.

If Chelsea win then the players and everybody bar Rafa will get the credit, but if they Lose Rafa gets it.

I hope for Rafa's sake they win.

3-1 Chelsea.

He would never be well received at Chelsea can you imagine at Everton? Be shocked if that happens

Liverpool Everton have had no serious rivalry since 1980's and its always been respectful, I think Rafa would be welcomed at Everton, good proven coach. He can always find good Spanish players too. My concern is Rafa would see Everton as beneath him.

And rightly so, Rafa deserves a top job because he's a top coach regardless of what the media will make you.read.

He's won trophies everywhere he's been and it would be a massive step back if he took the Everton job.

They can have Rodgers for a 1/4 of Everton mints though

Looks like he might win one at Chelsea now

Heyneckes is retiring this was known a long time ago and Rafa was only ever set on until the end of the season.

Well done Rafa.

John Terry is an embarrassment, I don't remember scholes or Keane donning their kit in '99.

 

[birdieman]

Terry's stripped and ready for action, Ba and Hazard are wearing a suit.

Well done Ba and Hazard for having some class!

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Not sure how they did it but well done Chelsea.

Its Chelsea FC they have no Class - Look at what they have done to Rafa, Di Matteo and Villas Boas before him

Yes but that nasty Spanish waiter called them plastic and they're not letting it go blah blah blah.

I take your point but it comes across as desperate by Terry to get in the photos etc.
Regarding the managers, I guess if you take the Chelsea job you're going to know it's a 2 or 3 year ride but you get paid maybe £4 million a year so it still a good deal. Di Matteo deserved better perhaps but got them out of the premiership contention very early this season.

Apparently John Terry had a Benfica kit in the bag too, just in case.

Apparently the managers who won most of the trophies last season are now out of the club they won with... A shocking fact about the way English football is run in this day & age. All money no substance. And now Fergies gone, Utd could go that way to...
