The search for a new manager begins? Surely its just the next name down on the electoral role?

I wish people would understand a good number of Chelsea fans do not want Benitez as manager no matter what his title. Guus Hiddinck was a temporary manager and Chelsea fans didn't want to see him go. The title is irrevelant is the person. Benitez insulted Chelsea fans while at Liverpool, there was no need to but he did it and then he came to Chelsea full of arrogance saying he did it to show support for his club, still trying to figure that one out. If he had apologised at the start and said lets get on with it things would be different but he hasn't. And why has he all of sudden got a problem? The title 'Interim'? haha I don't think so. More likely is the fact that Roman has told him he is going. And now Gourlay saying top four is a priority, not with this numpty in charge. We will be lucky to get in the Europa league. Look what he has done to Chelsea. A Champions league winning team struggling in the league. Look at all the trophies he has lost. Above all though his record is WORSE than Di Matteo. If he wants to be loved by the fans he has to earn it and like Inter fans he has no chance.
