Happinesstan Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Has Rafa got any history of this kind of thing, just out of interest? I'm pretty sure in his career he must have encountered numerous mavericks that haven't adapted to his philosophies. Obviously the ones who disappeared into oblivion vindicate him, but I wonder if he has ever (choose my words carefully) passed on a player who went on to become a star. Disclaimer: I'm not saying Mitro will go on to be a star. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Rafa sid in a recent talk in regarding Mitrovic, saying he’d score lots of goals in this league if he played up front every week and we got crosses in but we don’t play that way so he wouldn’t score so many goals. Meanwhile the ones he picks... they don’t either. Hmmm! I’m not a fan of Mitrovic, but it does piss me off seeing Joselu get so much game time this season when he’s been utterly shit and is utterly shit and Mitrovic hasn’t even been given a sniff. I’m happy for the lad and if we go down and lose Rafa we may actually need him... stay up and keep Rafa and we could get some good coin for him to reinv... well to stop us doing a Leeds.

By the look of this, not when he was at Liverpool: http://lfcstats.co.uk/rafatransfers.html One or two questionable signings, but pretty much everyone he sold either went on to do very little or brought in a good price or both.

Some fun nostalgic names in there. Didn't realise Salif Diao played for them for 5 years. Remember when everyone wanted a Senegalese in their team after the 2002 World Cup Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 thomas's point was that the argument hasn't changed, it's the same questions and the same answers over and over and over again and it has been for ages. Don't let that distinction stand in the way of yet more strawman 'my voice is being oppressed' bollocks though. Strawman argument right there. Nah.

Yorkie Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I have no boggle with either the pro-Mitros or the anti-Mitros, but there's a surprising amount of chitter about a man who'll never play for us again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not so sure about that, Rafa's future at the club is far from assured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Murphy scored some important goals, but as a player he was none existent in most games in terms of performance. Not a chance he'd be of any use in the Premier League IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
