Dokko Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 1 win in 13. Been a while since he's been a success at a club. Biggest mistake of his career leaving here. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67514077 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Good draw today at Valencia. Looks like a typical Rafa start to a season? Staying in touch, not getting hammered...if his time here was anything to go by they'll win a few soon and be well clear by the run-in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Howay Rafa, would be class for us to come up against Celta Vigo one day in Europe or another side if he moves on. Top man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cf Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Based on this he's getting massively unlucky. https://understat.com/league/La_liga/2023 Unless there's some underlying reason for why they're underperforming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallihg Posted January 4, 2024 Share Posted January 4, 2024 (edited) Important win last night for Celta Vigo against Real Betis. 96th minute winner 2-1 Wor Rafa. They are now barely out of relegation zone Edited January 4, 2024 by hallihg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallihg Posted January 4, 2024 Share Posted January 4, 2024 This looks very doable and probably a perfect job for Rafa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 4, 2024 Share Posted January 4, 2024 Aye, posted in the Other Games thread. Seems a very Rafa season. Struggle early on, hardly getting thrashed, but never cut adrift. The second half of the season show top 8 form and finish well clear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted January 5, 2024 Share Posted January 5, 2024 Hope he can continue to turn it around. Given he’s managing Celta I’m guessing he’s spent very little. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paully Posted January 5, 2024 Share Posted January 5, 2024 (edited) Good luck senor Rafa! Hopefully he's sat in his Spanish house putting his glasses into his inside jacket pocket at about 2.40pm tomorrow! Edited January 5, 2024 by Paully Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 Just looking at Celta's results and it couldn't be more Benitez. No drubbings, just a load of tight losses. Hope he can see them clear if he gets the time. Were they expected to be in the relegation mix, for those that follow the league? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 Genuinely believe if he stays at a club for a few years he’ll produce good results and probably put together some serious cup runs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 They've conceded a ridiculous number of really late goals that have impacted results. They'd have at least a dozen more points if they could defend after ~85mins. Really hope it works for him there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted March 3, 2024 Share Posted March 3, 2024 Was just thinking how it was Eddie Howe beating us that got McLaren sacked and Rafa in. (that ultimately started the takeover and got Eddie in…) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
