Di matteo can offer attractive football

When the going gets tough your lot turn defensive, fact.

They can continue that way and then risk getting found out by other teams or they can start to mix it up a bit by passing more

Frimpong, we have a plan b, every team should have one.

Superb, that Chelsea Double side was attractive enough so I am not saying they were dull, but that side in terms of attractiveness ( I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder) was in my view not a patch on some of Fergie or Wenger's sides or even the Chelsea of Duff and Robben. A team can play great football and miss a lot. Another may score lots of goals from set pieces. Does not make them necessarily thrilling to watch.

The Frimpong Song

Stupid, stupid comment. It only happened this season because we knew man for man both Bayern and Barca are better then us, and we aren't ashamed of that as they are both fantastic teams and this was a transition season. So what do you expect us to do? Go out and let them play off us the park or should we adopt tactics which not only work well for us but gives us a better chance of winning? Better than what Arsenal do anyways, where's their football got them? I'd rather play ugly when we need to and be the Champions of Europe than win zilch for 7 years.

There's only so many goals you can score from set pieces. Some for eh football we played that season was magnificent we were like a machine. are goals not entertaining enough for you?

I'm starting to think the more big name players we sign the less likely it is that RDM is going to be appointed.

Putting sentiment to one side I think we will need a big name manager to handle all of the big name players.

I said Chelsea were attractive, but goals scored on their own do not prove the point. If Chelsea had missed 30 of those 103 goals, the football would have been exactly the same. Arsenal scored enough goals under George Graham to win 2 titles. As I said I have seen games where teams play great football and miss.

I'm starting to think the more big name players we sign the less likely it is that RDM is going to be appointed.

He´s not going to get the job. I´ll tell you that now.

Big shame and I´m sure we´ll live to regret it but if DiMatteo was going to get the job fulltime it would have happened by now.

Won't be too sure on that Superb, if Guardiola does turn out to be a no go then Robbie will probably get it

I´m losing a bit of hope. Even if Guardiola does turn it down will Robbie get it ?

I´m far from certain now seeing that 10 days has passed since we won the CL.

Clearly Robbie is not first choice to take over and it therefore begs the question is he even second or third choice ?
