Shola was sound, he could score goals and hold the ball up well. In the Roeder days he was spot on as well. Absolutely not having that Joselu is even close to Shola in terms of ability & goalscoring, like.
The whole thing is a joke. It isn't 'constructive dismissal' as technically they aren't sacking Rafa, however they're definitely making his position untenable through their actions.
