Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has insisted that the only way for Rafael Benitez to win over the Chelsea fans is by winning trophies.
The former Liverpool chief has endured a mixed reaction since taking over at Stamford Bridge, with his initial appointment as interim boss proving widely unpopular among many of the Blues supporters.
However, Laudrup believes that Benitez simply has to obtain silverware to silence his critics in London.
"You can't change the mind of some people. But I still think there is nothing like wins," said Laudrup.
"You know how football is and results and more results will mean the past is the past and suddenly more and more people will respect him and less will be shouting bad things about the manager."
Chelsea host Swansea in the first leg of the Capital One Cup semi-finals on Wednesday night.
