As far as Operation Keep Ginger Jack out the team goes, that half couldnt have went much better.
But surely Rafa can see how bad the pile of s*** that is Colback is, surely ?
aye, made him captain
-
He's still got it - I'd have him back - be a free no?

http://www.rafabenitez.com/web/in/whats-on/merino-joins-manquillo-and-jacob/224/
Today we welcome Mikel Merino, who has just joined our project, and also Javier Manquillo and Jacob Murphy, who joined a few days ago in the middle of our intensive pre-season schedule, with training sessions and friendly matches. All three are young players, with great futures and much to contribute to our team, including making it more competitive for the new season. Welcome Mikel, Javier and Jacob.We continue to work in pursuit of our goal. COME ON TOONS !!!The man is just a class act.

Who assisted the second?

Anyone got this to work? Its just hanging for me.

Chill. We've got like a week till it's even August.
Well the manager is not chilling about it that's for sure
What's there not to get? Rafa mentions Ashley and money nearly every opportunity, there is clearly something going on.
It may be only July but we have yet to buy one player who is proven in the Premier League.
-
Anyone seen this guy play?
Is he strong?
Quick?
Good crosser?
Non of the above?
-
I think these loans between premier league teams has to stop I've just read that Chelsea could have six players on loan to other premier league teams which means six teams that will have weaker teams against them than anyone else, that can't be fair.
They've been doing it for years, buying up talent and then loaning them out to the 'lower' teams. It never used to be allowed to loan players to teams in the same league - no idea why it changed.

'we are asking for the money we can use'
Probs bedwetting but I still don't like the fact he's having to say this s*** in public.
Aye - not good. It beggars belief that the club gave the likes of McLaren 90 Mil to spend yet are penny pinching on Rafa.
-
If he can stay fit I have little to no doubt he could play well in the PL. Just an if the size of Big Sam's head.
About sums it up lol
-
Respect to Murphy. Good attitude, didn't whinge on, scored some important goals (Brentford away was huge at the time) and always tried his best.
Best wishes Daryl.

Nice to sign someone who actually WANTS to play for the club.
-
He must be looked at as more than a mere squad player, i mean we have Sterry if that was the case. I think he'll be pushing for a starting place, Rafa sees something obviously.
It's a punt nothing more - if it comes off great - else - not a massive amount wasted (In new world terms)
I don't think Rafa works like that, he's so meticulous with his buys, and yep he does get it wrong now and again as he's said himself. But nothing more than a punt ! With Rafa's big brain, nah not for me.
Yes Rafa would have done some homework on him, and will have his stats but it's still a punt as he's not proved himself at any level.

Hmm.....Well I thought Clark was shit when we signed him so...
-
Ha! Did Rafa get this guarantee from Ashley during a drinking competition?
Was just going to say - how drunk was he? Props doesn't even remember the conversation.
-
There doesn't seem to be much/any interest but it would be nice if we got rid of a few soon to give us some extra cash and space. Colback, Darlow and Hanley should give us another 15m to spend. Hope someone like Steve Bruce tries for Colback (dare to dream). Also some of the dead wood of course.
I'll be amazed if anyone wants Colback - how much is he on? When does his contract end?
-
Proper loved Hatem but can't help but thinking 'never go back' would apply here.
Absolutely.
I'm more along the lines of 'unfinished business'. If anyone can get the best out of him Rafa can.
Since when does Rafa work well, or work at all, with flair players?
Someone like Ancelotti is the perfect boss for HBA. Someone who'll encourage him to express himself and his talents on the pitch first and foremost, but he probably has better players already.
I am talking tactically.
-
he had a good game last night.
got stuck in, made space for himself well and played some canny balls.
Didn't see the game but heard he did well - Mr Ryder gave him 5 though - was he even there lol ?

On his day he's the type of player we're crying out for and I am guessing he'd be available on a free?
Like others have said though can't seeing it happening.
