Di Matteo is a big NO from me, Albion reject, I watched the champions league final, I f I had to sit through that week in week out I'd want Mcshit back

If I had to sit through us winning the European Cup week in week out I'd know I was either dreaming or in a timely back to 1982.

If Martinez does go to Scouseville, then that would mean AVB only had us as realistic employers if he wants to stay in the Premier League.........

I know he won but the tactics were appauling, Im pretty sure Di Matteo is a forefront for the player power at Chelsea.

Give him another job im sure he'd fluff it, Albion fans were happy when he left

Didn't Mick McCarthy get to being favourite for no good reason as well last week?

Quite, I can't belive so many people want to see us play sexy football rather than get back to winning ways, which to me is far more important, if the football is good that's just a bonus.

I don't need us to play sexy football but actually being able to pass to one another would be a start

I agree that winning is more important than style, but I'm not sure we'd get either with RDM.

Whoever it is needs a good transfer budget, there's a fair bit of shit that we need to replace.

The odd thing is that he has not drifted back out. The non contenders usually drift..

I don't think a stupid amount needs to be spent, there's some bloody good footballers down there still.

I'd say the midfield and defence are mostly fine (although maybe another striker now Heskey has gone) but the defence definatley needs looking at.

Agreed.

A target man and a Left Back should be top priorities (assuming Jean Makoun is going to reappear).

I was being generous to be fair.
You could count on the fingers of a Blues supporters hand who you would want to keep.

Given, Gabby, Herd, Ireland, Bent, Weimann, Makoun, Clark, Baker, N'Zogbia, Gardner

The rest can fuck off, as far as i'm concerned.

I'd say the midfield is the worst it has been for a very long time. The defence is better, but not much
