Rafa Watch

[sean_lfc]

Will Rafa ever get another job?!

Of course he will, you think no club would bite their hands off to get him? Premier League isn't the only league in the world, and contrary to popular (UK media) belief, my opinion is that he's revered all over the footballing world.

Carlo's just about the only other manager in world football with that level of achievement.

Another stupid decision by Abramovich - Carlo Ancelotti, won it all with AC Milan, won a double as his employee vs the next young thing with Porto

I just hope Rafa isn't holding out for Spurs or Arsenal - I'd hate that.

I think this is exactly the 'problem'. He's a proper manager and most likely will take no **** from some yuppie Russian criminal oligarch meddling in footballing affair. Just my observation.

Will Rafa ever get another job?!

It's becoming more and more clear that the Inter job have done more damage to him than first thought. And secondly there could be quite a few club hesitant because of the way he has left his previously managed clubs.

He will get a new job, but I don't think it will be a top club.

[Daniel 7]

Maybe that and his control issues with the boards of two clubs too.

He clearly needs to come back in to Liverpool in conjunction with Kenny and Steve Clark

[Darkon]

that's what I meant by the way he left his earlier clubs

[Chris]

He's running out of options and the longer he's out of the game the harder it'll be to get back in. Cant see him getting a good job here, the media have made him out as worse than Glenn Roeder while people like Hodgson are idolised. What a bizarre country we live in.

He's already turned down Juve in the past and theres no sign they need a new manager anyway, Inter is obviously a no and the stint at Inter has probably ruled out ever getting AC if they need someone.

Barca will never employ him. He's rejected Atletico. Real will offer him it at some point but that could easily be at least 18months before it's available. Maybe could get the Spain job in the summer is Del Bosque quits or is sacked?

He'd get jobs like Zenit, Shakhtar etc if they ever come up but cant see him wanting there, he loves it here which completely limits his options. PSG would have been perfect really. Next bet bet is Malaga I suppose.

PSG would've been good for Rafa, as would Malaga. It's quite incredible how such a quality manager has a poor reputation in this country.

I doubt he will come to Malaga, although we have alot of Money, i don't think the owners want him, especially as they seem to like Pellegrini and he is still fairly new here. unless Manuel gets sacked, i cannot see Rafa joining, although i would love him at La Rosaleda

I would go to a Malaga game but everytime i'm over there, it's during the summer so the season isnt underway yet.

[Darth Marty]

Great person and manager.

He needs to come back to LFC in some capacity.
