Defo Red for the hands round Coles throat. OK, he never did it violently but you just don't do it, so a red for me.

Colloccini's eyes never left the ball, so nothing deliberatly malicous in the 'attempt to get the ball'. A Yellow and a penalty would have been the right thing to do.................but injuries happen and it matters if it was deliberatly reckless or not.

He has now been in charge for 12 premier league games and under Benitez we have 22points... at the start of this season under RDM we had 24 points from 12 games. Since Benitez arrived we have been knocked out of the Club World Cup, the Champions League, League Cup and very nearly the FA Cup. Who thinks he is doing okay? What has he turned round?

I agree with that Robert M.

The team might have been better with Piazon fit than Torres out of sorts.

I am loving the way Ba gets stuck in.

Torres was dreadful against Swansea for 80 minutes and then Ba came on and was excellent and nearly won the game for us single-handed. Apparently Benitez claims Torres had a virus and so shouldn't be blamed. Which only begs the question why Benitez had him on the pitch.

I wasnt happy when I heard he was coming to chelsea, but he seems to be doing well, we have a good squad and were winning games, so not much to complain about as yet, the only thing is, the second he makes a mistake he'll get fired

u may that but look at how he is turning around the team. he might get this job on a permanent basis if the team continues to play the way they are doing. he's an experienced manager and that's what counts.

As a long standing Chelsea fan I was not happy to see Rafa given the job. But credit where credit is due, he seems to be the first manager we have had who has recognised that Mikel is a very limited player, and also that David Luiz would make an excellent holding midfield player (something I have been advocating for at least a year).

Who cares? Neither of them play for Chelsea, the current European Champions.

So this comment about Nasri is on the wrong board, David. Try posting on either of the Manchester boards.

And, by the way, while discussing cowardice, would you say what you said here to Nasri's face? Up close and personal?

Well done, Fritz for supporting Chelsea since you were four years old.

I have only been a Chelsea fan since 1966, and while we are talking age, I am 74. I was a late starter.

In support of the Benitez boo boys, they are allowed to express their view at matches in my book. Not least because they have probably paid between £50 and £60 pounds for their ticket, and are supporting the club with deeds. While we here on the internet only support with our thoughts.

Di Matteo was special both as a player and as a manager. It is right for the fans to honour his name.

I personally don't like what I have seen of Benitez on tv over the years. It is not because he managed Liverpool, it is not because of anything he said then or since. He just is not Blue.

Not yet anyway.

But I have found in life that some of my best friends are people I did not like at first. So, we'll see.

As for what the red half of the Premier league think. Who cares?

This is about passion. That is what football is about. And those expressing their dislike of Benitez are passionate and not disloyal. They are at the games after all.
