Gallowgate End

It’s definitely time to be concerned if that is the case. Duncan Castles(Journalist) said they told him they don’t expect it to announced until at least next week. Basically could be a few more weeks.

Looked shocking when he came on earlier still got a nice touch but everything physically is gone.

Marca say “No”. https://www.marca.com/en/football/international-football/2019/12/04/5de7830e22601d6e4b8b45f0.html Someone, maybe you?, keeps posting that Chinese law stipulates that he can just walk away. I’m dubious. Keep hoping that somebody back the idea up. That article is from last year he now only has 17 months left on his contract he’s not on a long 4 or 5 year contract. I reckon he’d be cheaper than is being made out. Apparently he tried to get a mutual termination in January when the China FA changed all the rules meaning they can’t buy any expensive star players anymore and all their signings have to be low wage capped signings. But apparently the owner convinced him to continue instead of leaving but since then Covid has hit and they haven’t been able to start their season. Will Dalian be wanting to continue to pay a manager £1million a month for doing nothing since November or will they think to cash in. I don’t think it would be that hard to get him you’ve potentially got a deal that suits all parties. I guess that’s what George Caulkin meant by incredibly complicated situation.

Burnsie. Can I ask why you have multiple Twitter accounts, which you use to talk to yourself & back yourselfup on? Can I also ask why you blocked me for calling you out for your racist behaviour? Can I ask why you were threatening a teenage (underage) girl on twitter after she exposed the dm's you were sending her, are you not married with a kid? But most of all. Can I ask if you ever found those aliens? You. Are a wrangun, not many people on here will know but they will eventually. You should ask him.

Funny how Bruce admitted the players demanded he play Rafa’s 3421 formation but aye they think Bruce is great

Sounds like they’ll give Bruce till the end of the season then Rafa coming home

This, not sure why but Poch excite’s me more It'll be the style of football. As much as I like Rafa, given a "budget" I want entertainment like Bayern V Chelsea which was a whole new sport, Ajax a season back, Barcelona with the advent of tika taka, not just winning but great to watch aswell. IF (?) We are to be the richest club even given FFP winning is pointless ,for me without panache.....could Rafa do this? Yes. Rafa Benitez is the highest goal rate Real Madrid manager in the last 60 years produced their biggest goalscoring win in Champions League history(8 v 0) and their biggest La Liga win in sixty years(10 v 2) It’s just a myth that he only plays defensive football and that Poch would be more attacking than him if both had a good team/financial backing. Rafa’s goal rate at R Madrid(2.76) Rafa’s goal rate at Chelsea(2.06) Rafa’s goal rate at Napoli(1.96) Compare that with Poch’s goal rate at Spurs(1.91) The only reason Poch would excite some people more is because the media describe Rafa as only a defensive manager when in fact he’s one of the most approach adaptable managers in the world he chooses the approach best suited to the group of players he has. He was too attacking at Real Madrid if anything but proved he can play very attacking football with a 2.76 goal rate. Control c, control v. I notice that time away hasn’t made your debating technique any less relentlessly tedious... I was just answering his question.

Barkley in a Gerrard type number 10 role that Rafa put him in behind Torres would be interesting to see. With his double pivot behind of Sean Longstaff(In his Rafa form) and a new signing like Soumare alongside him.

It won’t be he said he’s going to coach for another 10 years and into his 70’s. I think he’ll go onto manage Spain or England when he’s in his late 60’s said he wants to manage a national team at the end of his career not while he still wants to be on the training pitch/coach players all the time. A whole decade left for Rafa he’ll end up being the Spanish Sir Bobby

Very raw I think he needs way more coaching than Sean. Other way round for me. I think Matty has the most talent, and can be freerer to express it, Sean needs more discipline and intelligence which requires more support from coaching and players. Disagree I think Sean is way more talented those few months under Rafa he was sensational as one of his pivots. Matty has just popped up with the odd goal rather than complete performances.

Very raw I think he needs way more coaching than Sean. Sean Longstaff will have a better career I think.
