Guest neesy111 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I loved how the attackers became very fluid as the game was more in our favor and the result pretty much settled. Almost as if the restrictions were off - go have fun and entertain the supporters. It's good all of our main attackers are scoring goals now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Benitez will be gone before the end of October. Still time I suppose. He's actually not posted since we we're 3-1 down against Norwich Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Pretty sure If we get beat on Saturday he'll be back to let us know Rafa isn't the right guy for the job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Top class manager and top class bloke! I wouldn't swap him for anybody! He totally gets it and I hope he's here until he retires because if he is then we will definitely have ended our ridiculous trophy drought! I have heard from a reliable source that he is really enjoying life in general up here and, perhaps equally importantly, his wife is growing fond of the area too.

Benwell Lad Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 PNE boss Nearly Will Gompertz said :- "This time last year, their manager was at Real Madrid, they are a fantastic side" What a difference a year can make ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankpingel Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I have a bit of a browse on opposition teams forums and they do the obvious of comparing there team against ours. Unfortunately, for them, they've missed the most important part of why we're doing what we're doing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, for them, they've missed the most important part of why we're doing what we're doing. Brighton fans make me laugh, "they're not that good they lost their first two" ignoring that it might have something to do with our team having so many new faces.

The College Dropout Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Rafa was like that with most players, you'd often see him laughing with players on the training pitch. He's still not an arm around the shoulder man though. What NUFC don't have, and we did, were local players who thought they deserved to be told continually how good they were (ala, Houllier). You'd probably have a problem if Shearer was still there. You've seen it for yourself now anyway, when the players have played well Rafa will tell them where they went wrong, ever the perfectionist. It's early days yet, hopefully your players will still feel the same two years down the line. Players like Mascherano, Hamman, Reina, Luis Garcia, and others, all loved Rafa. Even Xabi Alonso loved Rafa until Rafa tried to sell him. Aye it;s the johnny big bollocks he struggles with sometimes. If it gets to a stage where we have genuine world class players at the club and performing for us - he'll have succeeded anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 The fact he's a top level manager and not an absolute cunt is something of a miracle really. Honestly can't think of another manager I would swap him for at the moment. Considering my first tattoo TBH. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 funny seeing that post from paully, i thought similar when i was watching the goals last night and hearing about the attendance...we've somehow contrived to get the right manager for our club at the exact time we needed him wouldn't swap him for anyone else because i'm not convinced anyone else could overhaul the entire club and culture around it like he is atm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
