Robster Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Why would he tell Ashley to fuck off a few weeks after he gave him a massive job? Because the club is an absolute shambles and the entire playing staff are a disgrace. I hope he doesn't of course but he must be wondering what the hell he has got himself into.

durhamunigeordie Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Not that impressed that he still hasn't worked out that Sissoko is currently our best LB option. Three games in a row he's ended up moving/having to move him there and weve looked much better for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I find it hard to believe anyone seriously thinks Rafa will walk away. He'd get slaughtered in the media as someone who was quick to take the job then cut and run as soon as the going got tough. In any case he doesn't strike me as that kind of man, he's retained a massive amount of respect in Liverpool for being the exact opposite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously at the end of the season there's a good chance he'll walk away since that's already been stipulated in the contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Hung out to dry by the players each match - will never question the man as he has a set of stones to take this job and his self belief and winner's mentality will have him absolutely fuming at these players. We were doomed for relegation when we hired McClaren this summer and failed to sack him in the window. We also failed to sign any right players for many windows - it's been a slow drop to relegation for some time. I have belief that if by some massive luck for us (which we never get) and he stays on and is allowed to gut the club and rebuild it, we'll be back where we (the fans) deserve. But I feel for him because he's a winner and he's the hardest task in the world right now from a manager's perspective - the most shit set of players amassed into a premier league club in some time.

loki679 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 First thing i'd do is tell them that if we get relegated not one single player will be sold. They either get the club promoted again or they rot for a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 The way the club is set up means players come to us for the wrong reasons and stay with us for the wrong reasons. There's no pride in playing for Mike Ashley's nufc, which is why anyone with any pride ends up somewhere else and we're left with this spineless bunch. It's no surprise to find these lot are beyond even Rafa's help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odear Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 First thing i'd do is tell them that if we get relegated not one single player will be sold. They either get the club promoted again or they rot for a season. I would imagine most of the players we signed from the summer and January will have clauses in their contract. But that would be a great idea otherwise. The puzzling thing is that with the euros coming up, you'd think some of this lot would be really trying to play well to make sure they start matches for their countries. The way it is now, I can see the same players just turning up for the wages in the championship. They couldn't give two shits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
