Gem Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Would I be happy? No! Could it happen? Of course, and it wouldn't surprise me :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g3.7 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 not the best time for a poll then... no- laughable that people would stand by a player before him. although I have thought and still think this is his last season before goes abroad.

Valerie Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 He IS abroad :) At this moment in time, I wouldn't be happy. Ask me again in about 8-10 months time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chippy Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 a hard one for me..... JMs time hear has brought 2 titles and a cup and no one can doubt that we are now the best English team.... his time has brought in great players...I for one never imagined we could have players like Sheva wearing our Blue unless they were well past their best. some great players have gone and that includes Gallas Mutu Parker Tiago Eidur Duff all players whos replacements may not be necessarily any better players and with the exception of Mutu I cant understand why they were sold.....ok we have got rid of a few whos future at this club was not looking good...Baba Glen Manich Jarosik Smertin etc what I dont like is the feeling I get that Jose will never admit to be wrong like in the Bridge case...we never needded DelHorno and Gallas is not a better left back than Wayne... I find it hard to like Jose unyet I would find it hard to think of a better manager......... my picture of him cheers me up as when he really looks like he is happy with the team it makes me think chelsea is more than just money to him more than just reputation building, but I always have doubts...fickle I think is the word. My thoughts are he will be with us for another season or two and then if all has gone ok be off to coach the Portugese national side and who could blame him... I just hope another couple of Titles and a CL trophy are in our cabinet by then and we find an able replacement...Gullit again anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibs Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I've voted no as I cannot think of another manager in his league at present. BUT, at times I don't like him and his transfer comings and goings up to now have been piss poor as has his handling of some of the players which comes across as very childish at times. He's a bloody good and successfull coach but far from "the Special One" in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBeard Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Yeah, get rid of the git! Bring back Ian Porterfield, with Geoff Hurst as his #2, that's what I say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkw Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 just saw that jose is fuming about the papers saying he was upset that kenyon went behind his back and the clbu are talking to there lawyers. about bloody time. the media batter us at every chance so its about time we fought back.

The Brit Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 NO - we should make the most of Jose while he is still here...no-one is perfect and Jose has made mistakes, but he has taken us to two championships and has fought Chelsea's corner against the rest of the prem, uefa, european clubs and the media...we will miss him when he's gone and like some of you I don't think that day is too far off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Someone in a previous thread said Gallas and Terry were statistically on of the best defensive partnerships in the history of world football, to which I laugh. Gallas and Terry had a fantastic record together under...........wait for it, Jose Mourinho. They were the central defensive pairing for years under Ranieri and in that time we never saw anything like what we did from them under Mourinho. It's Mourinho's defensive organisation which made it all work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Qaz, It was also Mourinho that broke the pair up in that position together, and choose to put Riccy in the middle for Gallas.. but I do see where you're coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Mourinho that turned them into a world class pair in the first place. He only broke what he created. Under Ranieri neither were a shade of what they are now.

g3.7 Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 that's not really true. the "really" is superfluous. they had been the best pairing in the league way before even abramovich arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Mourinho's defensive organisation which made it all work. That's incorrect, as under Raneiri, we had Desailly who played just about every game. So JT and Gallas did not play that often together.

Not in Ranieri's last season they didn't. Also keep in mind, it was Ranieri who brought Terry into the first team after Vialli wanted to reject him in favour of a new signing.

mad_mac Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 i remember stating that even though we would win nothing under CR, he had built a solid foundation and a great team, and for that we would forever be thankful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHedges Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Not sure if this has been discussed elsewhere...or if it is complete rubbish, but I thought I would post it here. With the proper article etiquette of course, loz :) The Sydney Morning Herald, September 6, 2006 Guus being groomed for Chelsea job LONDON: Guus Hiddink admits to a series of meetings with Roman Abramovich and Chelsea officials, amid speculation the ex-Socceroos manager is being groomed to take over management of the English Premier League champions.

1rouble Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 I dont like him ... Essien is wrong deal that made Gud leave. And i dont like the way he plan for attacking ... This year may be the last year of him at Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_hill_01 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I think this Jose fella is quite useful, we should see what he's capable of. We had 4 years of CR without a trophy, we've only lost 1 game this season! http://eplleague.blogspot.com/2006/09/begi...e-mourinho.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike O Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I'd rather see Kenyon and RA go before JM. Kenyon because he's dragged our brand down into the gutter as discussed on lots of other threads elsewhere. RA because people use him and his dosh as an excuse to not give JM the credit he deserves. We can all name club after club that have thrown heaps of cash at the market, but few of them have had a manager who could bring it all together. Only Red Nose has ever managed it with any success. If JM were hit by a bus tomorrow, he would still be judged ultimately by what he did at Porto, not CFC. The ignoranuses out there still believe we have a team that picks itself, motivates itself and selects its own strategy because we've got loads of dosh. I dream of RA getting bored with us and leaving us solvent and in credit. The wage structure would be cut and the Gallas' of this world would leave us but what would be left? The best manager in the world and players who - above all - wanted to play for him and to win for him. Now that would be exciting. Having said all that, he is a petulant whingeing git who should either 'not do media' or take some lessons from Vialli on charm and quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
