54 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20160901/benitez-reveals-all-about-uefa-coaches-forum_2281670_5856123 We move into an international break now, but you're still working. You are attending the UEFA Elite Club Coaches Forum in Nyon - what are you hoping to get from the conference? The conference is always very good, very useful. I have been a few times before to this meeting. Some of the top coaches from around Europe at the club level are here, there is a lot of talent and experience at the table. It is a good chance for us to get together and to have discussions about the subject that affect our clubs and our leagues. It can maybe be things like rule changes, refereeing, tactical trends and styles, regulations for domestic and European competitions - it depends what are the main topics for each season that we want to discuss. What do you think are the major issues that need debating this year? We have been talking about subjects such as the away goal rule, substitutions, time-keeping, electronic communication and video assistant referees, as well as discussing statistics and tactics like the influence of possession or the counterattacks, and the impact of substitutes A lot of information, numbers and ideas trying to improve the game. It is virtually unheard of for a second-tier club to be represented at a forum like this, isn't it? Yes it is unusual, but I think it is very good for Newcastle United because I am representing the Club at the top level, at a prestigious meeting like this. I can make sure I can bring back to Newcastle experience and information from the conference to help the Club. It will be a good opportunity to meet up with colleagues including Arsene Wenger, Luis Enrique, Unai Emery, Massimiliano Allegri, Carlo Ancelotti, Mircea Lucescu and other familiar faces. Do you enjoy a good relationship with other elite managers across Europe? I have good relationships with many managers. We speak often on the phone and we share knowledge and experience with each other, which is important and very healthy for all of us. It is always good to keep learning and keep improving, sharing ideas and helping others with advice and knowledge. I enjoy the conference and I am proud to represent Newcastle United this time.

Guest RafaelBenitez Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Like or not lads, Rafa likes a hard working battling midfielder. Sure, against Burton Albion at home, he won't be needed, but Jack Colback will have a big role to play especially away from home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Rafa will use Colback when necessary because he's here and he's a decent pro. But I have no doubt he knows that he's extremely limited. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Colback isn't hard working at all. He's a lazy coward who deliberately hides so he doesn't receive the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Just thought I'd put this in here... I don't think Lucas will come to NUFC, but if he did, Tiote + Lucas in the middle would be unreal! I certainly hope he doesn't mean unreal in a good way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dabe Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 It's astonishing how different he is to the absolute fuckwits that preceded him. Bet Pardew has a hotline to other shithouse PFMs but doesn't engage with those "Johnny forrins" about tactical trends and the like; British managers are no doubt in an echo chamber of narcissism. So pleased with Benitez yet frustrated at the last 8+ years of dross (sans a burst of Keegan and smattering of Hughton). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
