Sky Sports News understands Roberto Di Matteo expects to lose his job at Chelsea after Champions League defeat to Juventus. More on #SSN

What a shytty decision way too early for deserving of a sacking.

at Benitez being the rumour of who's coming in. Torres return to glory

Don't do it Wafa

STATEMENT ON ROBERTO DI MATTEO | News Article | News | Official Site | Chelsea Football Club
They really did it.

 

[SCORCH]

Never a dull moment being a Chelsea supporter I'll tell you that.

RdM should get another biggish job somewhere else. Peace out breh

 

[gho3st]

Why would Pep Guardiola want to go to chelsea ? No stability at all. At least Di Matteo went out like a G : He benched Torres!, Put Lampard on the bench! LOL

 

[SCORCH]

Who's gonna take over? Eddie Newton?

RdM's keeping his job until top 4 becomes an issue.

I hope whoever made the decision to go into the season with this squad was watching tonight.

I really believed that.

I really believed that.

at roman not giving a fukk about the PL.

PL what's that?

 

[FloorGeneral]

GuillemBalague: Pep has told Roman he will continue his sabbatical and Rafa Benítez has not been approached. Would Avram Grant be a solution for now?

 

[RocPG]

Sacking a coach that won you the Champions League is just dumb as fukk!!!!

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

@ Chelsea.

Its all Romans fault anyway, cannot rebuild in one summer RdM was always a interim boss anyway, if he made it to the 2nd season that would of been more of a miracle than Chelsea winnin the CL last season.

@ roman that ungrateful little c*nt.

As much as I love him and what he's done for chelsea, he's ultimately hurting the club with all these sackings




fukk it bring home the god

 

[Roid Jones]

I'm not as strident as this sacking as I was about the others, Robbie was always just a temp manager and Roman could hit him with the at any moment, but I did expect him to see out the season

Thanks for all you have done for us Robbie, G Matteo>>>>>>>>>>AVB

not really if you think about it

got this from a different forum but

Ranieri: Finished 2nd, reached CL Semis, sacked
Mourinho: Won the League with record points total, retained it, won two trophies in third season, sacked
Grant: Took title race against amazing United side to last day, reached CL Final and within 6 inches of winning it 3 times, reached League Cup Final, sacked
Scolari: Very poor spell
Hiddink: Won FA Cup and got screwed out of CL in about 3 months
Ancelotti: Won Double in first season, won nothing in second season
AVB: Very poor spell
Di Matteo: Won FA Cup and European Cup

So that's 3 Premier Leagues,, 4 FA Cups, 1 League Cup, 2 CL Finals and 1 Victory

What the club needs is stability which it won't get by sacking manager after manager.

I'm not saying Chelsea needs its own Fergie in terms of longevity but sacking a manager because of one trophy-less season (Ancelotti) isn't the answer either.
