Cups for Rafa's CV, or top 4 and CL for Chelsea??? Which is it to be?? At this critical time for us, what with Jose tipped to return ONLY IF we get top 4, I would reluctantly swallow defeat against Man U by playing a second string team. Either way, for mine, Rafa would be in the Taxi to Heathrow at games end. JT, Lamps and Cech have enough nouse to guide us until seasons end. A risk, certainly, but not as risky as the FSW staying on. Sure others have different opinions.
He will want to get one over on Fergie. Today is the one game left we have this season that I'm sure we'll win purely because the players and manager will treat it like a proper game Benitez wants the Europa League, FA Cup, Top 4 in that order
I still think we will snatch all three priorities United are there for the taking tomorrow A good win Thursday will set us up for a stalemate in Russia and we should do away with Sunderland at the Bridge, regardless of the Di Canio factor And with myself expecting us to bear United we won't play Spurs till late in the season with the cup semi on that day BELIEF!
Love your optimism, I'm a tad more pragmatic. I'd have gone for the 3 points yesterday, not been too fussed about Man U and gone all out against Sunderland. Anyway, hope you're right.
should have fired the idiot as soon as he came out and said he was leaving. Again, the fatso is not the real source of the problem, it's the stupid decision making from the heirarchy. Couldn't they see that there would be a FUNDAMENTAL conflict of interest by keeping him on?? Well now the chickens are coming home to roost for sure.
