Geordie Ahmed Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Regardless of our takeover situation I'm not at all worried about him going to Everton. If our takeover doesn't happen I can see him leaving BUT don't see him going to Everton, I think he genuinely values his time at Liverpool too much.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Rafa obviously cares about Liverpool fans, but he's tough enough to be able to deal with any fall-out if he ever managed Everton, bear in mind LFC and Everton are not fierce rivals. I work there a lot and a customer for example, the husband will support Everton and his wife Liverpool. He is actually well respected by Evertonians. That said I would fear losing him more to Liverpool over Everton, even West Ham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Less than a goal conceded per game on average. Remarkable. Rafa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elma Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 In Prem games alone it's 20 goals in 19 games. That's half a season - projected to 40 goals conceded across a whole season. Bear in mind however that over half of the goals conceded (12) were with someone else's team and eight of those were in the first four games. In the subsequent 15 prem games we've only conceded 12 including Spurs (twice), Liverpool (twice) and Man City. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_NUFC Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I love how ruthless he is, as well. Didn't start with Lascelles first game. Then just dropped Clark. And Mbemba is forever in the shadows. Man's a fucking giant of this game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Give him a quality Striker, #10, LB and GK and I'd be ecstatic. Crazy how well we've done so far despite the lack of quality in so many positions. The collective and tactics can take you far, but add some more quality to it and it could be even better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Mitro, he's still delighted when the team win., wants to play and prove himself. Man, can you believe it, we have a TEAM, all thank to Rafa; and despite the fat controller.

And he's got those figures with a team pretty much doomed to relegation before he even came in, and a team just out of the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three of those six defeats were in the first four games with someone else's demoralised team. Will be interesting to see how the stats stack up after we hit the more difficult fixtures in a couple of games time. We're currently 1-3-1 under Rafa against the top six.

Tiresias Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Eh, we're better at defending than most the premier league (prolly in the bottom half for scoring goals though).

Stottie Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 We won't make it easy for them, but City are so capable on an individual level that a system alone will struggle to stop them. I can't see Blob not conceding at least once to 90 minutes of long-range City shooting either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
