DJ_NUFC Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 We simply don't have the players to play a great style of football. Other than Shelvey, Ritchie and Clark - we don't have anyone in the team who can play a fast paced, loaded attacking or passing style of play. If we tried to play like that we'd lose matches because they'd constantly get caught out. Rafa has set up this team to their strengths, which is why we're top of the league. If we tried to play the way some people want, we'd not be. love rafa, but think KK may have gotten a little more out of this team in terms of entertainment (possibly at the expense of a few points). This defence under KK would mean a 4-3 / 3-4 every week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't directed at you but I think we need to get away from comparing things to KK. Great memories but it was a loooong time ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, it was the goals that dried up that cost us particularly away from home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard he hasn't even become an English Citizen even those his vermin family have been thieving healthcare, education and jobs from hard working English patriots long after he qualified. Pretty sure he once went to Scotland too, absolutely disgusting. I heard he only eats straight bananas get rid Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Highlight of the match last night was how passionate Rafa was, not angry, just upset that we had been hard done by and it felt great to have a classy bloke like him fighting our corner, a bit like when a big brother sticks up for you.
