Rafa did a fantastic job. Got players playing again. Torres found some form, Luiz having his best spell since arriving and Mata playing the way we knew he could. Pity about the bad apples in the side who think the are above themselves. If you wonder sometimes why Chelsea have went through so many managers over the years just think of the names Lampard and Terry. Dispicable towards Benitez.
He did a good job for sure and if Chelsea wouldn't have qualified for champions league and not won a cup, he would have been a failure there, so he did his job.
However, for some reasons he remains quite controversial. Yesterday I was watching some French pundits taking about the replacement of Ancelotti at PSG, though, most of them thought that he was one of the best readily available managers, it looks like fans are not very interested or excited about it. Difficult to understand especially when you look at the PSG managers before Ancelotti.
