Incognito Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I think he'll be off but it wont be to Everton. He doesn't seem the sort that would manage a rival of a club he has a massive affiliation to. I don't know, he went to Chelsea. Remember the tension between the two clubs when Rafa was at Liverpool especially during their Champions League tie?

Big Geordie Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Just listening to his interview - he sounds a broken man, to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bert Shaft Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I'd like to see him stay if only because I don't trust anyone else to clear this squad of the s**** that is stinking up the dressing room. Yep, am more bothered about him staying than what league Sports Direct United are in next season. If he is allowed to fook off, it will be years before SDU recover.

Ted Maul Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Him staying (fwiw i think he will) will depend on what he's allowed to do in the summer. If he's given free reign then he's staying. I think fatty will get rid of him regardless of whether he wants to stay so he can save a bit of money. That clause was put in for him as much as it was for Benitez.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 What hurts the most is that he gave me hope and a reason to give a fuck again. I was even thinking of going to a few away games next season if we stayed up and he stayed on. SJP is dead to me, too much SD, wonga and cretins for fans foisting the joint out, but away from home fuck aye with Rafa in charge?! This actually hurts. A few months back I was hoping for relegation and laughing my tits off at the complete melt of a club we were. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

durhamunigeordie Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It was frustrating but I don't think he was wrong with the way he set up today. You can see he has us drilled defensively, and it worked, but of course as a fan you want to see people pressing and trying to nick the ball back. Do that and get it wrong and you leave opposition attackers open and that's what we've been doing most of the season. As others have said another five/ten games or so with him in charge and wed most likely have been fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Don't think he got it wrong at all today personally, people always seem to forget the alternatives to what he selects are as bad as what we start with. He got us to keep a clean sheet, probably was just hoping we would take our chances when they came but we didn't. That's not really his fault. Maybe De Jong could have been given more pitch time, that's about the only thing I can think of that might have made a difference. Might have.

jimmymag Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 pls stay Raf pls He'll look at what he's got in that dressing room and think it'll be difficult, if not impossible, to come straight back up with that shite and gracefully bow out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Bailey Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Such a damn shame that this class act was with us for such a short time.

ads Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Really intrigued to know what others think, be honest. Do you think Rafa might stay if we go down? Personally I've got a feeling he might. Depending, of course, on what assurances he receives moving forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I think it's 50/50 from his side but he's an expensive asset so he'll be fucked off in least graceful way possible by Cunt and the Shit Gang. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he does stay because it wouldn't take much to bring us back up as long as we get rid of the shite from the squad and bring in proper players who give a shit.
