coogar: it was intentional.
bluediva and the legion of blokes...
to be honest, bluediva is an amazon...how does
she cope with the huge stench of testosterone on this thread?

chic2pimp: TORRESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS IS BACKKKKKKKK LADY AND GENTLEMEN!!!

coogar: ask nateevs and ibime.

ood news, although Jovetic is not too fast. . . so I reckon Mata, Hazard and Jovetic will fight for no10 role. . .

Negro please. . . Debuchy who has shown a lot this last season, plus Nathaniel Clyne should be the right-backs we go for. VDW's bad-boy image doesnt help him.

coogar: nateevs, excited by the di matteo signing or not?
can he rub minds with the grandmasters of the game?

dayokanu: Mario Gomez showing other strikers how to do it

debosky: Nateevs you know we go way back on NL - these occasional tiffs can't change that history.

debosky: Ok - this has gone on long enough. I call for a truce.

debosky: ^^

Nope, but there is a synonym for utter stoopidity - nateevs.

debosky: Hardly - I have stopped because you're past redemption. If you're too thick to get what I've tried to say thus far, there's no point wasting my time on a lost case like you.

Someday you will personally call FT a dud, trust me.

You have to feel for Ronaldo.
He is under immense pressure, i mean, the whole world is watching and expecting him to do wonders.

BlueDiva: ^^^^
He should, with all the players coming in.

BlueDiva: 2 year deal for RDM.

I knew that 1yr deal was mere speculation.
If it ain't on chelseafc.com then it's fake.

I seriously hopes he succeed.
I'm tired of seeing managers sacked.

@lalaboi,
I seriously hope Hulk proves me wrong when he arrives.

I don't have to be a risk analyst to see that a club will seek to reduce risk if it can (amongst other considerations). This simple principle is what cannot be comprehended by nateevs, paragraphs of rubbish later

debosky: Do I have to be in the board room to know that an owner is not interested in perpetually paying off managers?
Abramovich does want the CL above all - it can be deduced from his actions. That is what I am saying if it wasn’t spoon fed to you in my previous post.

debosky: You can’t create some strawman analysis to knock down, your analysis is your own wahala.
Again you lack perspective - I haven’t argued about the specific amount he is paid, but the principle remains - whether it is £1m or £5m, reducing the risk exposure makes financial sense for Chelski and Chelski would do that if they could.
Your lack of perspective leads you down the narrow road of equating my statement to ‘paying compensation will lead to not meeting FFP requirements’.
Any reduction in expenditure is welcome - that is the principle here. Be it on compensation, wages, or other expenses.
But no, according to Nateevs, I have to ‘prove’ that Chelski is interested in reducing its losses. What a mor0n!

debosky: As for the 'year's contract' - that may simply be [/b]to counter the large compensation he's been paying over the years

I have not said this is indeed the reason, but [b]it is very plausible that it was a consideration in giving a one year deal.

My point stands - the one year consideration (if it turns out to be true) likely factors in the recent experience with AVB (another rookie manager) and the compensation his failure involved.

Even Abramovich isn't interested in perpetually paying off managers.

Abramovich wanted the CL above all

Ex-managers like Grant confirmed his inability to win it as the reason he was fired

Are you simply unable to read? Who said he was trying to 'balance the books' on lower wages? Who mentioned how much he was being paid apart from you?

debosky: Because he cannot continue paying £20m+ on compensation each time he fires a coach with FFP kicking in. Did you fail to comprehend this when I said it D

Ibime: Who cares what Roman wants?

Realize that this guy is just a rookie.
Giving him the contract is a big favour.

I think giving him a one year contract is logical.
If he performs well then he will be given more years.

Anyhow, it shows that Roman appreciates winning and doesn't mind how ugly it is.
If he really hated ugly football, RDM won't stand a chance of going one more year, CL or not.

BlueDiva: Chelsea will never play like Barca, Pep or no Pep.
The billionaire is just chasing wind.

I don't want Pep because i don't think Pep is a good manager.
I hope he comes over someday so he can prove me right.

BlueDiva: Anyway, even if it's a 1 year contract, it still shows that winning the CL is the only reason he was offered a contract.
Chelsea didn't play beautiful footie under RDM, the only reason he is getting the job is because of his feat.

Roman isn't going to get his 'beautiful footie'.
If that was his sole aim then there is no sense in offering RDM any contract at all.

Grant was a stop gap - even the mice running along Fulham Road know this. As for the 'year's contract' - that may simply be to counter the large compensation he's been paying over the years. Even though he's gotten the holy grail, Abramovich is still an impulsive owner and may fire him by December.

AVB was supposed to be JM's second coming, but some of us saw that was going to end in failure as well.

BlueDiva: Well, he isn't getting a 1 year contract.
That justifies the claim that RA rewards winning the CL, no matter the style.

Winning is more important for Roman.
JM was sacked not for his style of play but for challenging Roman's interferance.

debosky: . . . .and it proves what I (and others) have been saying for years - the CL is the holy grail for Roman and deeply influences his managerial decisions, typified by Mourinho and Ancelotti.
