Rafa Watch

He'll (He'd) certainly struggle to win the Champs League in his first season

the only problem with rafa is that he overachieved so much first time that it'd be massively difficult to pull that off again. thats without the media against him and the 'never go back' rule...

klopp or avb for me. obviously wouldnt say no to pep but think thats a pipe dream

If Rafa was to be considered, it'd have to be out of all the context of Kenny going, the 'never go back' scenario, the new owners, etc.. and just on 'is he actually the best candidate for the job, given where we are now and what we're trying to do in the future?' - nothing else.

AVB - I think he's a good manager, but he lost a lot of that credibility with Fat Fwank and the whole Chav saga... Came across as out of his depth with established players and cliques. Plus, think of all the **** we'd get from the Chav fans... bleurgh...

Klopp - best option for me, no ties, no baggage and established over a number of seasons not a 'one hit wonder' or 'LMA winner'... plus he probably doesn't like Smints...

Guardiola/Cryuff combo is actually what LFC deserves, mind...

I didn't realise how many Rafa fans there were on here. 56.8% on the Poll within the next manager page. I wonder how indicative that is within the entire fanbase... Its a massive majority.

That doesn't even include all the indifferent fans who still love him and want to see him back but just don't think this is the right time.

That argument that there are as many fans that don't want him here is complete bollocks.

It's maybe a coincidence but any Liverpool fan I know in person that has a bit of sense about them want Rafa back, the few that I've heard that don't are the sort of supporters that would be lucky if they catch us on MOTD once a month nevermind watch matches live. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that everyone who wants him back speaks sense, some of the idiots want him too, I just don't know a decent supporter in real life that doesn't feel the same or can put up a valid argument against.

If it even is an 'if' then I will have serious doubts about the direction our owners are taking us. I'm not saying that he has any divine right to be given the job but he at least has to be an obvious candidate.

Ya flamin galaa!

I've never ever said stoked before. It just seemed to fit.

I just hope they make their own decision and don't get influenced by us fans, if they appointed Rafa, and i doubt they will, it needs to be a decision they're 100% happy with and want, it's easier to work with and back a manager then.

Still think it'll be AVB or Martinez, but ready to be surprised too.

at this point i'm just watching, trying not to get attached to any of our options. in my eyes we're in pretty good hands and it's nice to be able to just relax and check it out for once.

I would like Rafa to be our next manager but if he is appointed our next manager I'm not sure it will be the right decision..... How does that work?
I think it's my heart saying YES but, my head is saying no
