Rafa Watch

[Craig_H]

I dont doubt that you want us to win, but i'msure that if Rafa came back, even if it meant results had gone wrong, part of you would be pleased, just because he'd come back.

Anyway, this isnt the time for this debate IMO, we've won at the pit and that's all i care about right now.

Well they can forget league titles from any manager until the stadium is built and we're profitable from that and CL money. With three clubs massively out spending you, no manager is bringing the league title to Anfield.

I can only think of 1

[Shaggy]

Oh dear.

Chelsea, City and the Mancs have all spent more than us this summer. In Rafa's period those three clubs plus Spurs comfortably outspent us.

[Vermilion]

Good Derby win against the bitters.

edit: oops, wrong thread.

You're at 3rd in both tables. Even if it isn't entirly accurate i think 'massively outspent' is a bit of a stretch, don't you.

You can hardly use that card when you genuinely do 'massively outspend' us and we more often than not finish above you.

Well considering i don't rate him at all then not very well. He did well/lucky to get that bunch of players to win an CL, but there was no true power house at the point in time. The Milan side had won 1 league either side of that in 10 years, Spanish football was at it's lowest point of the last 2 decades* and our football was amidst a power shift from us/mancs to Chelsea.

Aside from that he did well at Valencia (see *), but his finishing positions with you lot were on the whole nothing to shout about.
