WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Talking about how we got the balance right in the XI. Says we finished 10th, then 13th and the next step should've been to push on but we didn't have that ambition. Was asked if he was surprised when we paid good money for ASM and Joelinton but dodged answering it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFCDoog Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 It’s beautiful and heartbreaking seeing him on here tonight. Since he went in the summer I’ve switched off from us, 25 years of support, 12 as a season ticket holder, reduced to simply checking the full time score every weekend, but seeing him again just takes me back to the hope we all had the last 3 years, that 5-1 against Tottenham, Fulham away with 7000 of us in that away end, beating Brighton 2-1 away, winning the title on the last day, beating Man Utd, signing Almiron and beating Man City and then it seeming like the club was about to be sold in the summer, so many amazing memories with him, above all, even when we got beat there was hope, we had a manager that believed in the potential of the city, whilst Rafa was here there was always that feeling that everything would be ok, we were able to dream, able to believe. Then he left. Despite everything I’ve said above it was inevitable it would end in heartbreak, I’ve not recovered from it, we’re doing really well at the minute table wise but I just can’t feel anything, we know now that Ashley wouldn’t commit to Benitez, Rafa said it himself just a few minutes ago, my biggest fault was having ambition, that says it all. We’ll be out the cup by February, we’ll finish mid table and the next season it could be about pushing on but we know Ashley isn’t bothered, we know Bruce is just happy to be there. There’s no hope that we can progress. It might have been stupid, but having Rafa as manager always had me believing there was a chance, no matter how small, that we could be everything we could and ever wanted to be, with him gone we know we’re not. Seeing him tonight and hearing how he still talks about us is upsetting as fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Rafa discussing the stats behind how many passes prior to a goal, possession % etc. fucking incredible man. Absolutely love him just wrecking the whole passing/front foot football bull shit. it's about balance and winning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely love him just wrecking the whole passing/front foot football bull shit. it's about balance and winning. The British managers lunch club will have been massively triggered from watching Rafa show then what tactics are all about last night. Can’t wait for the backlash on TalkSport, twitter and Facebook etc trying to justify themselves. Probably a few doing it on here too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
