    It’s not just the regular player power. It’s JT, the captain, Drogba, Lampard, Cech and the likes that we’re talking about. Those players bleed blue and actually are on speaking terms with Abramovich. If Abramovich can’t trust them, who have been at the club for almost 10 years at that time, who else would he trust? That group of players stayed together and had seen managers come and go, but they were still there. If they say something isn’t right, Abramovich would 100% follow them than the manager who has been there for a few months.

    Players power is very much present in the modern game. The Ronaldo, Messi, Neyma, Kylian Mbape, Benzema etc have that much power in today’s game. Chelsea hiring Benitez was a wrong appointment from day one. Neither the fans nor the players wanted him and it’s obvious it was never going to work. The owner and top management team of Chelsea are to be blamed for it. Those set of Chelsea players have that much power. They practically set the club on auto mode hence, any manager can come in and still win trophies. The fact that they won the champions league with a non proven manager says how much of a force the players were. Whatever they did to Benitez, he deserves it. It was a wrong appointment from day 1. It made both fans and players furious. Ofcos, being a manager, I don’t expect Mr Martin O’Niel to say otherwise. It’s what it is!

    It's amazing how everyone seems to have forgotten that Rafa Benitez finished 3rd in the league, and won the Europa league even though he was only appointed as an interim manager until the end of that season after Di Matteo was sacked, yet people say it was a disaster. What more was he was supposed to do? They were nowhere near challenging for the league title when he came in.

    With that squad, he achieved the bare minimum. Chelsea lost to Swansea in the league cup semi final because he refused to drop Torres. They won the Europa League, yes, but take a look at the opposition. Chelsea weren't just favourites, they were so clear of every other team they came up against. Let's not forget the fact that Benitez also lost the Club World Cup with his awful tactics. I remember it like it was yesterday, Benitez was a terrible appointment. The worst thing Benitez did was refuse to criticise Suarez for biting Ivanovic and lied about Terry by saying he could only play 1 game a week. We saw his true colours. He didn't care about Chelsea, and we didn't want him.

    Chelsea was a beast of a club and unique with the leadership. No one messed with Roman and had relationships with the players through JT Lamps Cech etc When a coach can only survive one or two seasons a time and many key players stayed long than 7/8 years then that had to be the leadership system and it worked. The domination and success was Roman constantly changing coach’s but keeping the key players. Roman was probably one of the only owners who had real football knowledge who was involved in all aspects of the club through Buck and Marina.

So clearly both financially before RA and domestic cups and european success and PL table position before RA AND on the Deloitte’s Money League accepted as one of the main measures show how wrong you are and only below likes of Man U Liverpool in UK.

    I don’t think it was a player power problem per se. the core group of players were immense and had the responsibility to carry on that winning ethos Mourinho instilled in them. The problem with Benitez was that he did not communicate with his players. Did not tell them why they were dropped, how they could improve etc. The tipping point was when Rafa was fine with being knocked out of the domestic cup and he was okay with it which is where JT lost it with him. If the manager had the right mentality and direction then the players wouldn’t have a problem. Look at Ancelotti, Gus Hiddink etc

    @@dondamon4669 Maybe they don’t purposefully lose but just can’t go over 100% with their performances because either they just don’t fit the system or the coaching isn’t good enough that leads to more mistakes, etc. or maybe just as simple as not feeling the respect, ie. not given fair chances or rewards based on performances. Could be a lot of factors. Feeling frustrated at the coach because you know you all can be and do better makes sense to me. (Also managers/coaches aren’t exactly the right equivalent to the real boss. The real boss at the top will always be the owners or presidents. Managers are more akin to well, managers or chief of certain branch or division for example. They can get you fired or transferred for sure, but only at the final decision of the real boss at the top who can also just fire the managers if the whole division just doesn’t function as hoped or expected)

    The truth of the matter is Chelsea got rid of so many manager it actively undermined the manager’s authority. I am a Chelsea fan, and the landscape changed after mourinho’s sacking (the first one). I really believe players were numbed by the sackings in the end. See how players ran the show under Avram Grant when we reached the final in 2008, or even under Bobby Di Matteo (even though he was respected and one of the lads). I am very much for a player to be happy and well settled in his environment, but not at the detriment of the club and other players. I believe JT was the guardian of what Chelsea represents. But I want a manager who can take charge and have the main say. I thanked Rafa for his work, but he wasn’t the right man.

Rafa as a managerial force was spent, and the players recognised that. I don’t particularly like it, but it worked. If more England players had had the balls, maybe they’d have ousted cappello, and won something.

    People bang on about this stuff but if you look at the context the players were right on the money all the time. Mourinho and Ancelotti they never wanted out - clearly the two biggest successes - and Mourinho is a very fiery personality so plenty must have disliked him, but put up with him because he was doing well. The ones they wanted gone like Scolari, AVB, Benitez were not getting results and were alienating top players, and the ones who just let players manage themselves (Grant, Hiddink, Di Matteo) actually had the best results of all, although their periods were brief, they showed Chelsea were a team that thrived on just managing their own dressing room and being left to handle it.
