Abramovich wants L.Blanc to take over as manager. £8m a year contract.

Another risk appointment if it happens. Shall we give it 9 months this time?

What's Laurent Blanc done in management to earn a contract like that?

Going to cost a lot to get rid of him at the end of next season

Benfica boss Jorge Jesus has pledged to react to an apparent jibe from Didier Drogba by beating Chelsea in their Champions League clash in Lisbon.

Drogba feigned fear in a video on Chelsea's official website after they were drawn against the Portuguese side.

What a touch of class from Chelsea to feature a video of a player feigning fear at playing future opposition on no less than their official site . Gr8 display of respect, similar to when their chairman Bruce Buck mocked Liverpool. Goes without saying that Benfica and Liverpool are both historically far more successful in their domestic leagues and in european competition than the Ches.

No wonder everyone hates Chelsea. No class.

Are Chelsea going to rue those red cards at Loftus road if they miss out on the fair play league spot in the europa league?

Considering that Fulham are yet to receive a red card for any of their players this season makes the above irrelevant

[Extended-Phenotype]

Frank Lampard apparently had a gastric band fitted.

The reason he wasn't being picked by André Villas-Boas was that Lampard's abnormal stools were distressing the rest of the team.

Hope you're all cheering on the last English side left in Europe this season tonight.

[Alan Partridge]

Nah, Benfica for me m8. History and Tradition > Money and Free Flags.

[3 veesinarow]

Nope. I'll be watching Apoel v Real - much more interest in that one.

[1871 Royal]

Nope. I'll be watching my grass grow, much more interest in that one.

Corrected for you.

It's an even bigger LOL when the Mirror is reporting £9m!

What's Laurent Blanc done in management to earn a contract like that?

Unbeaten with France, and the title with Bordeaux, he has a good record to be fair, but that would make him the highest paid manager on the planet, insane.

Benfica 0 - 1 Chelsea

So a manager who's been told his contract won't be extended until after the Euros but wants an extension now is being linked with Chelsea? I wonder why.

Good result yesterday, probably should have won by more in the end though.

Good display from your boys last night. Should have been more than 1 nil though. Also hats off to Roberto's team selection. When I heard the line-up I feared the worst.
