Mick

He played well and one tackle in the second half was timed brilliantly, his goal was the icing on the cake for him.

That was class, it was noisy anyway but it went mad when the news was breaking.

Can see Mitros Red trainers at the back following Rafa to soak him :lol: Mitrovic throws an empty champagne bottle which was a bit stupid, you can just see his arm on that clip.

I was one of the only ones who didn't celebrate and I was trying to find out what was going on but couldn't get a signal like everybody else. I sent texts without reply and eventually phoned home to find out nothing had happened.

A bloke next to me came in during the second half, he thought it was a 3pm kick off.

If we don't sign anybody else he'd be even more important to us.

I was wondering what was going on, was that just after Brighton scored and the Barnsley fans were taking the piss? I'm sure that was the first time I'd heard them all day.

He looked like the player I was watching when he was away in Africa. He had flicks, pace, ball control and directness. He was really unlucky not to have scored.

A lack of pressure maybe, you can see he's been gaining confidence for weeks and today he did everything right. He was finding space, he had pace and he wasn't worried about taking players on with the ball or them taking him on.

His link up play with Yedlin was brilliant.

Confidence has made a massive difference, he was all over the pitch today.

The flick for his goal was outrageous.

If it wasn't for Perez Atsu would have been player of the match, he was brilliant today and we really should keep him.

He can't change the past but he make sure we've got a better future if he wants to. Somehow we've ended up with Rafa and only Ashley can screw that up, he had better not.

He was absolutely outstanding today.

Rafa Benitez, winner.

The club will hopefully have the full 90 minutes at some point which is better than nothing.

A new thread with a link will do, get it done. I'll wait until they decide to have some more swipes at Rafa. Shouldn't be too lo... They have another Mag at Work thread

I'm sure we will.

You had an account just before you deleted it and re-registered.

A new thread with a link will do, get it done.

Moyes would have kept us up apparantly Much better than the fat Spanish waiter.

If they do it should be done during our game, that will set them off.

I'm surprised nobody has bumped that.
