One way he might find to save energy is to read the game better. He is always reacting rather than anticipating. How did his rise in credibility begin. Not through sound defending that is for sure. The number of times forwards run off his shoulder is frightening. More disturbing were the number of free headers City had. I have followed Chelsea through thin and thick for 42 years and have rarely seen a more insipid ,listless display from what are in the main quality players. Yes we need a centre half for the reasons given above and Coco the clown could give the team more than Torres up front, as well as a defensive midfield player of world class. I was prepared to give Benitez the benefit but he has told the players they are tired and low and behold they are now. What a surprise .Can you imagine Brian Clough saying that to the press or allowing one of his players to.What if they really had to work for a living. On another note if Sky are to put Stoke on live shouldn't we get a refund on the grounds that what they play could not be described as football.

I am close to 50 years of age, work on average 45 hours a week for a hugely smaller wage than these guys. I come home,cook,clean & prepare for the next days work. They dont know what work is these people. Tired!

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!

hat is arguably the least inspiring England I have ever seen. There is not a single name in that list that makes me think I might actually want to watch this team. Not a one.
