Fine RDM make mistake and people makes mistake too, the only problem I know RDM has is Torres and also defending problem which is working on but the man was not given chance to correct that and the pressure on him using torres has a lone striker while daniel not fit. To me RDM understands this players and also love them, he is a good listener, he listen to people opinion, players thoughts with this he was able to relate well. But unfortunately he was unable to finish his task. RB (benitez) on the other hand has no support from fans, he is slow to decision makings and also have awful substitution problem e.g who to change, when to change and how to change these have been is problems.

Arsenal play sexy football and haven't won anything for years you have to play to your strengths and your opponents weakness...... If you play a team that has a stronger midfield than yours and you are being out muscled and you have a player like Ba who can win a header and hold up the ball Then play a long ball and bypass it what is so bad about that? If you score a goal and win the match who cares how it arrived it's better than losing surely?????????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953053922178102916.post-56247053592246572692013-01-24T16:48:27.727+00:002013-01-24T16:48:27.727+00:00In my little opinion...a lot of things have contri...In my little opinion...a lot of things have contributed to our fall this season. Among these are:<br />1. The Sexy Football issue:<br />Remember,Mou ddnt play sexy..see the haul of trophies...he made our defense impervious...RDM's first contribution was to solidify the defence and you all can see for yursef wat happened...Dont get me wrong,i really love the sexy football but the urge for the quick introduction and perfection has ruined our defence and has shown a number of managers the exit door.<br />2. The investment Risk<br />Off cause for what i trust Mou for,he wouldnt stick on you if you are a record signing and you are a flop...ask Sheva. All Chelsea players and managers were pursuing one common goal for way too long..not to allow Roman's investment fail...Nico,Didi,Kalou,Dan all got sacrificed to bring the best out of Torres but still same old story...The 50 million tag has taken a toll on Him.<br />3. The transfer of Raul<br />4. The continuous interferance of the board on the Team's biz...they seem not to have the independence to run thingzz....and so on Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953053922178102916.post-34205739456303118512013-01-24T11:09:03.288+00:002013-01-24T11:09:03.288+00:00First of all the number 1 fault is from Roman must...First of all the number 1 fault is from Roman must we play like Barca? in PL tiki taka can't really work teams will sit back and wait for an opportunity to counter attack and Roman have to wait for results to come building a team is not easy and can be done by a manager not many but I will always say thank you to Roman for what he has done for our club.<br />Secondly, the primary requirement for English football is physicality which we lack in the midfield. Teams do overpower us in the midfield because the likes of Hazard, Oscar and Mata lack physical power the example of what I'm saying is against Stoke. All this player came in to play tiki taka as Roman wants but they don't get it right in PL then it leads to frustration like what Hazard did yesterday it was because he was frustrated, Mikel and Lampard are the only players that can withstand the situations in physical games. And if you look at Chelsea's midfield all they do is to move the ball from the defenders pass it around for a while then we they want to play the final pass to penetrate the defence of the team they are playing against it will blocked this calls for us to use the wings when Moses was around he give us other option on the wings which Marin is capable of doing too but Mr Benitez won't use him, he keeps on playing Oscar on the wings where he struggles I pity him.<br />The third one is stability. If you will agree with me I think rotation is enough let's have a stable team this is where the defence comes in we got good defenders but our back is not stable today you will see Luiz and Cahill next you will see Cahill and Ivanovic another day you will see Luiz and Ivanovic understanding is what makes a defence look at Ricardo and Terry they were successful because they understand where they were strong and their weaknesses too they cover for each other so you hardly see them making mistake.<br />Lastly, we need another manager.

We v...Lets be frank to ourself, look at the games.. We ve all it takes to excel, but our problem is still team selection,players position and substitution.. First, I will start with the pivot midfielders, and this is where our major problem lies., Am made to understand that most chelsea supporters are racist and all they believe in is sentiments and legendary not football.. After all the critism,who has played be double pivot better than Obi mikel? If you are a good analyst it wont take a second to know that our major problem lies at the pivot and not the defence or attack.. I will continue to say this, Lampard has done well for the club, we all appreciate his commitment but let's be realistic, he is the weakest link b/w the attack and the defence, he is not a defensive minded player or a holding midfielder, Yes, lampard will score you goals but when playing against a well organized and counter attacking teams, you will suffer at the middle.. Secondly, I will always say this, playing Oscar from the flank is as good as being stupid! God! This lad is a midfield mastro, forget about his physique, why cant we pair him with Ramires or luis at the double pivot or play him at the number 10 position or give him a free role instead, playing him from the flank is as good as benching him.. Third, am a good fan of luis and if he must be brought back to the midfield, he must be cautioned for constant giving out possessions to opponet in the name of unreasonable long passes when he should use his nearest man.. After benching him if he still doesn't want to learn then take him back to the bench. The problem of substitution is another... If you dont know how and when to sub players to change the dimension of the game, how can you call yourself a coach?
