For those who follow Spanish football, what exactly was Rafa doing wrong? Team selections? Too defensive?

 

Boring football. Results just weren't good enough considering the help from refs and their squad.

Bad performances more than anything. Never fluid in attack and always susceptible to conceding against decent teams. Only had 18 or so matches but not a single win or performance of note against good opposition. And generally looking cumbersome against weaker opposition.

 

Big fan of James. A top, top player and a handsome little fella to boot. A superior footballer to Isco in almost every way. Even in a midfield 3 I prefer him. His appreciation of the game and space is brilliant. IMO tactically James is much more flexible and appreciates position and team mates more than Isco. Isco takes too long to pass the ball and has less ability and imagination on the ball.

 

Isco's still pretty much a "free" player. A #10 or someone you just let do whatever he wants. For me, the teams more fluid and fast paced with the ball when James is in the team. IMO there's only a handful of players in the  world that are better overall footballers than James. Isco isn't one of them. At any position or this Real team James >

That ball from Shelvey then for Montero's chance, not a cat in hells chance Colback, Tiote or Anita would have made it.

Was just thinking that, a CM actually driving forward with the ball, and producing a pinpoint ball.

Truss Swansea to lose this one. That Roofe looks a canny player. I'll get slated for this, but we should try and pitch in for him. Knowing our lot though we will fall flat on this.

I agree - looked a very good player from what I saw. Naturally another team will now buy him though.
