Rafa Benítez (now unemployed)


Recommended Posts

Rafa doesn't get to pick and choose which targets we sign ffs  :lol:

 

He clearly has a massive list that he gives to the club, and then can do nothing but watch as the club fucks most of them up and only goes through with a deal if the player meets all the clubs' criteria (young, cheap, low wages etc) AND then the selling club caves in during negotiations.

 

To think that he could say "keep that 12 million for Murphy, I'd rather buy someone else with it" is fucking ridiculous.

I love this argument by the way:

 

"Rafa should be sacked"

"Rafa should have got better players with the money he had"

 

"Who should we replace him with?"

"Who should he have got that is better for the money?"

 

"We'll that's not my job, I haven't got the connections or scouts, etc.. "

 

Oh ok, so you're not educated enough to give better examples but you're educated enough to criticise that which you admit you have no education about? :lol:

It's all just opinions at the end of the day, we've got people saying now that Rafa didn't want those players or didn't choose them, which again is just an opinion, theres no actual facts is there.

 

We all debate and comment on all aspects of NUFC, none of us are experts are we, lets just close the forum and not bother discussing anything because we aren't all experts.

 

I'd be willing to believe a dignified man like Rafael Benitez over proven liar mike Ashley and his cronies

With that in mind, wouldn't it be a better idea to look at his non-NUFC signings and then judge him on that then, rather than take this stance of judging the NUFC signings you admit there are no facts on?

Lose to Cardiff and his time must surely be up?

 

Is this a joke or am I overreacting?

 

Who do you want to get in? Or should we listen to Keys and sack Rafa because he's not using his wages to spend 20 million on a striker despite not even getting 5 million an year?

 

Top four should be within reach, right? Or maybe top ten at worst? Sack Rafa because Ashley spends SOOOOO much....

It's not a joke. It should be, but it's not. It should be a wind up, but he really is that thick. We've all been asking him who he'd rather have in since 2016, he's yet to answer.

See what happens come the 1st of Feb

Rafa spending 300 million on Neymar and Suarez, leading to Newcastle playing super attacking football and winning a shock title?

 

Wouldn't be enough to get them 2 sadly and even if they were in our team theyd need counseling after having to play alongside Dummet,Yedlin,Manquillo,Joselu and Diame

Manager Rafael Benitez says Newcastle will struggle to "have a go" in this season's FA Cup because of their position in the Premier League.

The Magpies fell to 18th in the league on Saturday after defeat to Chelsea.

Benitez said he will rotate his squad for the third-round replay against Blackburn on Tuesday, as he did when the teams drew 1-1 at St James' Park.

He said clubs have to be "realistic" about their FA Cup chances when deciding to prioritise the competition.

"Who has a chance, a realistic chance? Teams in the middle of the table because they can have a go because they are safe," Benitez said.

"The other teams, you have to manage it really carefully."

Fellow Premier League strugglers Huddersfield, Cardiff and Fulham went out in the FA Cup in the third round to lower-league opposition, while Southampton were taken to a replay by Derby.

"Why you see these teams and they were out? Because the Premier League is massive," Benitez said.

"You have £130m guaranteed if you are there. So everyone is trying to manage the situation. You have to be realistic."

I thought Rafa was meant to get us as supporters? Who gives a fuck if Mike Ashley's team stays in the Premier League and what has the 130m got to do with anything, nobody is getting that except fat Mike, Rafa certainly isn't. Fuck me, pick your best team and try and win something, plenty of smaller clubs than us have won cups since we last did. 1969 for those of you too young to remember.

I think he gets that we care and want a team that tries and some hope.  I don't think he gets the history.  Talking to my dad who is 71 and literally has seen us win nothing (He doesn't count Fairs Cup as it was in Hungary). We've always had a maverick/entertainer in the team.  From Jimmy Smith, Tony Green, Beardsley, Gazza, Ginola, Robert, Tino and Ben Arfa.  Where is our talisman now?

 

You could argue it's finance but flair players have went for free.  Yes I'd like to win something but I'd rather watch a robert/Asprilla type than Ritchie all day long.  Ya ya Toure on sky tonight.  'If I'm a forward my job is to attack.  Do we do that?
