remember the leicester away gama a couple of seasons back when we won 2-1 and we stayed back singing for half an hour.
the players were coming over to our corner to celebrate and Rafa would be pulling shelvey or lascelles back just to give that extra bit of feedback - in a lush arm round the shoulder supportive dad kind of way. was superb.
the guy looks flat as fuck and out of ideas.
i honestly think he's just waiting for the sack and it'll come as such a relief for him.
he'll happily take his pay-off quietly and retire.
bet he never in a million years thought the job would be so pressured and difficult. he probably thought it would be a piece of piss with all the money ashley had spent and he'd become the local hero we'd waited years for.
absolutely floundering.
hasnt got a clue.
spouting pure fucking waffle.
stick a grunting pig on screen and it wouldn't be any less informative.
the man is a joke.
but hey, he's a nice guy.
rafa had arranged 2 really hard working players (yes, i'm including ayoze) buzzing around a beast of a centre forward.
people forget that last few months of his was a joy.
never thought we'd get stuffed no matter who we played. knew we'd always have a chance.
did you read the pre-match interview with bruce. it was just so negative.
no wonder they go out looking scared shitless when bruce is telling the world that every team we face is a really strong team with good players and we have to try keep it tight and see i we can nick something..
brighton winning at villa. you just know bruce's spiel before we go to villa park.
"they're a good team, spent a lot of money, top 6, some great players, we cant go toe to toe, got to keep it tight etc etc".
caught jake humphrey's half time talk. he nailed it.
where's the response to the southampton debacle. i think he also asked what they'd been working all all week. also ridiculed the "fans expect champions league" quote.
good lad.
miggy will be dropped due to him travelling back from international duty. bruce is probably sighing with relief on the inside as he has a ready made excuse for not having to make a decision as to where to play him.
i remember panicking after losing our first 2 games in the champo.
but Rafa was calm, and came out saying he knew what he was doing, stuck to his beliefs, and the rest is history.
fucking hell why the hell has he had that run?
Justify his transfer fee?
to desperately try and save ashley and nickson the shame of admitting they completely fucked up on this one and should've listened to Rafa.
Not sure what we’ve done to deserve this absolute shower of local journalists.
john gibson's not the greatest, but he's a level above the other spineless sycophants.
wish they would let him into one of bruce's press conferences.
