Rafa Benítez (now unemployed)


Recommended Posts

Nothing but one last desperate attempt at getting something done.

 

I think he's genuine though, He probably would consider extending his contract if he got the players he wanted. Next season he should have more money available anyway with the TV money available. Ashley basically has to invest around £20m and he'll get Rafa's signature on the contract IMO.

You also presume Ashley cares. He is here for the tv money then he will sell. 20m saved is a bonus. He doesn't care if rafa stays or goes that's the problem of whomever he peddles the club to.

 

On a more positive side of my newcastle caused split personality,  maybe Ashley will realise that 20m investment also increases the club's value. Especially if we stay up. No brainer minimum investment for maximum return.

 

The main problem with Ashley like my personalities it's unpredictable. He has always appeared to value his own opinion on footballing matters over the professionals he hires which has always ended bad, big surprise.

£20m saved is a bonus? Do you know how much relegation would cost us? I think he'll spend the money on whoever Rafa is asking for. It might work, it might not, but it's basically pocket change in the greater scheme of things. What's it going to cost him at the end of the day? He could either back the manager, or sell up and allow PCP to do it.

I do find it pretty baffling that he's entertaining the idea of extending his stay, unless he's confident that the sale of the club will go through.

 

He's said it depends on us signing the players he's asked for basically. So he can't really lose.
