We are bringing you news today that Rafa Benitez has reportedly left Chelsea after only a few days at the club, citing personal reasons for his departure. Chelsea fans may sound relieved after Benitez has left, but Roman Abramovich will now certainly be looking for a brand new man to lead the Blues.

Where will he find him though?

***PS: I will be using the first database as not used to new one yet :/ ****


Today we are delighted to bring to you the news that Chelsea Football Club have appointed former Fans Player of the Year Erland Johnsen as manager. He will begin his duties with immediate effect before our first pre-season match against Sheffield Wednesday.


The Return


It was pretty daunting. The club that I had learnt my trade at wanted me back. I had returned. And it felt good to be back. Finally I had found a job again. After the last four years, I nearly decided to quit but Chelsea called me and now I'm here.

It was completely different. Nobody here was here when I was, the only people i really remember were Ferguson and Wenger, and I wouldn't be seeing them for a bit.

I was about to meet The Boss, but I just walked around for a bit. Wow.

Then it was time to meet him: 'Welcome back to Chelsea Mr Johnsen' he said in his heavy Russian accent. And s quick as that, I was in my new office. There was a team report on the desk, with a note attached.



I thought that would be a good idea. The staff now, I wanted to get rid of them, and I still had my football contacts.


The Response


@dowley12: 'Great work from Roman getting this lad, hope to see what he can do #good'

@rioferdy5: 'Already heard a lot from Fergie on this guy, sounds like a great player and manager. Good luck to him'

@Joey7Barton: 'F***ing Norwegians, this guy is s***, I'm miles better than Messi, I am Jesus'

@JeFf123: 'Dunno if this is the right deal for Chelsea, could go wrong #worried'

August




I'm still in shock personally. That result at the end. Brilliant. I started August with a fairly poor attempt at playing football against City. It was such a shocking performance. We then beat Wigan and Swansea in two much better games, before I changed to the famous 'Banzai Tika-Taka' from our own FMRookie. Just look at that result. Amazing. All of this on top of a pretty good pre-season, lots of goals so far.

September and October




A very good couple of months although I am very annoyed to be out of the CAC. A poor performance in that led to me being knocked out. A great game against United though, winning 3-0 and also missing a penalty.
