He doesn't care about the club. When I was at the stoke city game last year before he got hired, there was a huge sign that unrolled in the shed end that said "frick rafa we'd rather walk alone"… few weeks later boom, fat waiter wearing a red tie at his first game with the blues. Don't like him.

As I've said on here before, the mistake wasn't hiring Rafa, it was firing RDM. There was no reason to fire him. After the firing, Roman didn't really have a choice. It will be interesting to see how the fans react depending on our league finish. That last home game, if we aren't making CL, may be a good watch just to see what the fans are doing.

People are not stupid, nobody in the world is going to be halfway impressed with FSW winning the Europa League considering he crashed out of about 4 other competitions and took a team right at the top of the PL and has them in an all out dogfight for 4th place. If this is really his strategy/thinking he is even dumber than I thought, which would be pretty remarkable.

Word is quite a few English clubs are looking at him... I'll give you that the elite clubs aren't...

Yeah my dad and I really liked RDM. I honestly don't think we're going to make it in top 4.

Personally, I didn't think RDM was your future, but he definitely deserved the chance to see out the season and prove himself...

I would agree 100% and challenge you to find anyone that would disagree.

This!!!!! He just took a team that was torn up from the inside and won the Champions League with them. I don't see why we didn't let him finish out the season. Oh well, there is only one Di Matteo

They were in third place when he took over, but only 4 points out of first.

Agree with others have said, RDM deserved more time for what he accomplished the prior season.

So now you are both insinuating that he is purposefully sabotaging the team but at the same time don't understand why Chelsea fans hate him?

Yeah, y'all were calling him a frickwit and a FSW long before y'all accused him of sabotaging the team. He was getting shite on by Chelsea fans before the first training session.

Yep, totally wrong. We are in soooooo much better shape with that FSW running us.

I think what he's trying to say is that IF Rafa is actually intentionally sabotaging the team, most of the motivation behind that is the fact that none of you were behind him from before he ever took the touchline. He may have been indifferent, but your treatment of him did nothing but turn that indifference into a "frick it" attitude.

Meh, I hardly think that Rafa or any manger gives a shite about what the fans think.

Which is why it's still not to late send his arse packing as far as I'm concerned. Letting FSW continue to stay in charge is even more baffling from Roman than running off Jose, Carlo, and RDM.

But on the other hand would you rather not have RA's pockets on our side? He got us into a ditch, yes, but without him I doubt we'd be on the road at all. Also he needs to let me use his yacht. That is all.

Well he commented on your songs about him, so some part of him cares.

I think its baffles everyone. I have no clue why Roman hasn't gotten rid of him, unless he wants the continuity until the end of the season. Frankly I'm more surprised that Rafa hasn't quit by now.

The only continuity is continuous piss poor results and Roman, Roman fricking Abramovich, of all people is standing by and letting this happen? It makes no sense at all.

I could see if he had just given up on the league and was just wanting to get the season over with but it's the point now where we are very close to having this football club set back in a major way and still he does nothing. FML! It's been like a 6 month nightmare.

Yeah, just want him gone. Have any players defended him?
