Chelsea given fresh hope by Pep Guardiola

Good news for Chelsea, but not so good for Roberto Di Matteo, is the news coming out of Spain that Barcelona’s departing manager Pep Guardiola, may be willing to manage another team next year.

The 41-year old manager has been with Barcelona for four years and orchestrated the most successful period in the club’s history. He had told the Spanish press that he needed a year out of football, and has been succeeded by his assistant Tito Vilanova.

Tonight, Pep coaches Barcelona for the last time in the Spanish cup final. Speaking before the match, he said “For the next month I have to charge my batteries. I will rest and I will wait. I will be ready, if one club wants me, if they seduce me, I will train again.”

Roman Abramovich is known to be a great fan of Guardiola’s and is believed to have already sounded him out. Maybe something he said has changed his mind. If we can persuade Guardiola to come, who’s next? Messi?

    Alberto di matteo will be very upset if pep gardiola sign as a chelsea manager.. Di matte deserve happiness becaus he has brings so much happiness in stamford bridge and all cfc fans

    pep would be a good addition as far as rebuilding is concerned. Di Matteo has done a good work, but still all went down to the word ‘luck’… On a long term, dat could easily run out

    Even though I like RDM, I’d rather see Pep in charge of Chelsea next season.

    All the respect to Di Matteo, ALL the respect! And even though I like him a lot, I do not think he is ready YET to manage Chelsea. I just hope if we do part with Di Matteo, that we part in a good way so that the door is still open when he is ready to return in the future. Give hime a couple of years to manage other big teams and get experience. And then we can hand Chelsea into his hands without being nervous!

    Guardiola can never succeed in chelsea.i am a chelsea fan 2d core.(1.)he is nt good in transfer market.(2)it is nt easy 2change d style of playing of a club.chelsea’s style of play is quite difrent 4rm dat of barca.(3)guardiola is nt special,he succeded in barca jst bcos he had d materials(players) already which di matteo can easily do wt such players.give di matteo a chance 2buy d type of players he needed,behold,he wil win d champion’s league bak 2 bak.

    RDM leading chelsea through was realy a miracle. God realy did it for chelsea. I think to give Pep d manager wil bring more honour to chelsea lets not be sentimental.

    mike
    i think you are a very wise man
    all power to RDM

  18. Tohode doji says

    Roberto di mateo should remain chelsea fc manager for three season, rdm is the right man for us.

  19. Triple k says

    Roberto di mateo should remain in charge of chelsea boss , he brought a fighting wining spirit to the team, he has a good relationship with the players allowing them to play what they have in mind. The club owner should allow the man to continue doing his good work what others could not achieve he achieve it in a couple of months.

  20. Triple k says

    I love blues!

  21. Morgan says

    RDM and Chelsea didn’t win by Luck like some people want to emphasize it. Even if Robben had scored from the spot kick, Chelsea would have equalized. Against Barca coming from two goals down with ten men & a makeshift defense is no luck but right tactics and efficiency with less traditional wing play (MAN U & ARSE) style.

  22. Okieez says

    Ya!….i think robeto di mattio should be given d job…coz chelsea is chelsea n no1 can change dat……for instance obi as a male…is a boy….n neva will obi b a girl…obi…can only get matured to a man still a male…relate dat to chelsea; chelsea pattern of play can only b mordenized……but can’t be changed entirely….solari,anceloti n avb all tried it it didn’t work…..n moreover RDM is a chelsea legend …..just as DD wanna become….n robeto knw d pattern of play of chelsea…….so i think giving him dat position as d manager of chelsea will b a gud tin dat has every happen to him n chelsea…..remember guyz u reap what u sow….so let us all give him a massive support….1 love to all my bluez fanz i love ya’ all.
