The game has passed him by a long time ago and that's from someone who loves Rafa

 

Think that's probably true. Was excited to see him do something at Celta Vigo but even that looked it was a bit of a disaster.

Celta Vigo, Everton, the Chinese club etc - even Newcastle (except the first season, 8 games or so) - none of them had a solid spine of quality players and foundations. They weren't expected to do anything except escape relegation, other than China perhaps. You can only do so much with poor tools. 

Forest are actually a good club with history plus good players right now, plus are in Europe. Dodgy owner yes, so the job will be a pressured one from day one but he will make them solid again and he can be expansive once they are used to his drills. 

I think we forget, he knows what he is doing and is a much safer pair of hands than the likes of Ange or any of the other flavours of the month.

Think Rafa would do just fine in the right set of circumstances tbh, but those set of circumstances are already quite out of keeping with how football clubs operate these days, never mind how badly suited he'd be to working under Marinakis.

He’s finished.

We'll see. The consensus was that Moyes was too, all it takes is the right job. No doubt that Rafa's had a series of bad ones and probably needs to be more flexible if he's ever going to turn it around though.

As soon as Celta peddled him they won 5 out of their final 10 games. As many as they'd won all season under him. Then the following season they went on to finish 7th. At Everton he lost his last 9 out of 13, despite a good start.

 

Loved him at us, but he's been done for a while.

Didn't know where else to post this but it turns out Jon Dhal Thommason is a proper cunt. Did Shearer shag his lass when he was here or something. Having another pop at us the wanker.

Hopefully destroyed Sweden’s chances of getting to the WC and he loses his job, the pathetic flake.

It's probably because he blames Newcastle somehow for him fucking choking when he came here.
