Rafa rips into Ferguson

[mersey86]

Any possible repercussions for Rafa from this?

Rafa is a very clever man. Was well able for Mourinho's games and will be for Ferguson too.

This is all obviously aimed at referees. Referees are now under pressure to not look like they are favouring United. They will think twice now before giving a 50/50 decision in United's favour. Also the FA will now have to investigate if United's staff are seen speaking to the ref in order to influence him. Brilliant.

The way he pulled a sheet out of his pocket with all his facts made me laugh.

Welcome back to the land of the living.



No doubt the media will try to whip this into a Keeganesque 'Rafa Losing the Plot' type scenario but I think Rafa has been very clever here. I look forward to seeing the actual footage but from the transcript it sounds like Rafa is the one playing the games.

I agree that this could work out excellently for us but not unless we beat Stoke!!! If we can have a solid victory then no matter what the result of the Mancs vs Chavs is we will be looking strong.

If things don't go well for us and then the Mancs beat the Chavs all the momentum will be with the Mancs. The Stoke game is HUGE for us and we need to beat them to give ourselves a massive boost and real belief that we can stay where we are.

Thank you.

This press conference should have been done before the game in March - not now.

I disagree. By doing it now the attention is on the Mancs if Rafa had done this in March it would of put all the pressure on Us.
