Rafa Watch

[kris90210]

Wonder if Fergie has had his hand in persuading some English clubs to look elsewhere...

Doubt it mate. The media have done that job for him. Doubt he'll get a decent job in this country now. His best bet would have to be Spain, Italy or maybe even International.

[Lee]

Back to Spain would probably be the sensible thing for him.

I'm not saying that he needs to lower his expectations, but I think he needs to realise how few jobs there are that match his requirements.

Should never have been sacked here ffs.

[Tee]

A bit far fetched I know, but whatever.....he should go about getting together a consortium of billionaires, buy out FSG and then do what he thinks is best for Liverpool FC.

[paulg]

He should never have had the rough ride from the media that he had. It's disgusting that they basically victimised him, purely for not arse licking them.

Do Milan have any money these days?

I know they sold players to PSG for big bucks but I can't remember seeing that they've re-invested in anyone of any great quality.

The media were pecking away at him for a few years. It was "rotation bad, zonal marking bad" instead of "four legs good, two legs bad." If any of them had a mind of their own they were drowned out by the crowd. I remember James Lawton coming out with a vicious load of bile when Rafa was sacked despite having blown smoke up his arse a few years earlier. What happened in between? Did Rafa not return the favour with a few quotes or an interview? Or did he want to suck up to Fat Sam, Fergie and Harry? Rafa needed a spin doctor to manage his media coverage but Hicks and Gillette were never going to help him.

They have some decent younger italian lads like El Shaarawy and Nocerino and Abate, but in general their defence is awful and they don't score enough.

el shaarawy. might as well call himself goombah soprano.

[Daniel 7]

Hey, Boogatz!

[little dave hedgehog]

what?

Some Rafa love about today.

I miss the old goatee, besides Kenny our dugout hasn't quite looked right since he left, he really really needs to come back.

Shelvey, Sterling, Suso. All parts of his legacy just starting to shine through, not to mention Agger, Skrtel, Reina etc that still are it's crazy.

I bet him and Suarez would get on like a house on fire.

Needs to come back one day.

[Icon]

Just thinking exactly same...

Completely agree.

I like Rodgers and we've played some good football with him as manager, but I'd have Rafa back now if possible. I just trusted him on and off the pitch. He's proven and I just believed in him.

[Daniel 7]

Is it...starting?

10 games?
