The worst thing about this is the chelski fans not seeming to give a hoot AND the arsenal fans that agree!

FFS the bloke took a mediocre side on the brink in the CL to win the thing. Then he was given the job full time, what was the point if Abramovich was gonna fire him a few months later.

Abramovich is a classless arrogant twat who has ruined our game. His money fueled the boom in footballers salaries and Arsenal are paying for it right now just to hang onto their coattails.

You would be right if we didnt have a shareholder who can blow Abramovich out of the water and compete to get a manager like Pep in.But we have a board who are more intrested in profits and not investing in the club.Usmanov is worth a third MORE than Roman.

Thats not the point. It's more like how fickle football and its fans have become.

Usmanov is seen as the solution because it is assumed he would give us more spending power. Whether that is right or wrong is debatable. For me I don't like billionaires treating football clubs like their little toys, this is why we are facing having to pay walcott 100k a week just to keep him. Madness.

And then on top of it everyone is whingeing about the price of football tickets etc, if ever there was a contradiction in terms.

RDM was given the job on the back of the CL win. I dont think Roman wanted to give it to him but at the time fans, players, media were pushing for him and he felt he had to appoint him, knowing that as soon as he slipped up he'd be sacked.
I reckon Abramovic was just biding his time until he could pull the trigger.

Love the way the Chavs have announced Rafa as an interim manager. They're ALL "interim Chelsea managers"!

Disagree with Donaldo about abramovich.

Would not want that guy near Arsenal no matter what success he has brought to be honest. Don't the club have a debt to him of over half a million. Don't want anyone at Arsenal who would do that.

Benitez should be interesting. 11 men behind the ball :lol:

No doubt he has made Chelsea richer, but the salaries started rising from the start of the Premier League and Sky TV's involvement.

that's the end of the Chavs season then!! Love it :barscarf:

Guardiola will come to Arsenal, I said it a couple of years ago and still think it will happen, Arsenal are just the sort of club he would want to manage.

I dont care about chelsea their owner their manager or their scummy fans !

Laughing my head off at the appointment of the fat spanish waiter ,just a shame it wasn't Harry !

All I will say is tha Di Matteo is a proper man accepted responsibility for the result knew he was to be sacked shock hands with the players thanked his staff and then into the meeting that canned him .
He will walk off into the sunset laden with Judengeld and will no doubt pop up soon at QPR once they sack the the welsh wizard !
