LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I'm sure Rafa would rather the club offered him his current £6m a year salary but used the £9m left over to upgrade the training facilities. Basically the same point as chopey who posted at the same time. Not that I believe they've offered Rafa £15m for a year contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 It’s the sticking plaster approach to everything they do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 £15m Looking forward to the knackers bringing it up like gospel when Rafa leaves. "Turned down £15m man, didn't want to be here man. Get behind Sherwood and the lads man" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 That's the national press, Chronicle saying 'United sources' are denying it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribesman Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I said it before, but a 1 year contract extension for Benitez is pointless. It doesn't remove any uncertainty and the club will have the same attitude as last summer in that they won't give Benitez money unless he commits long term or that's what they say. Its either Benitez leaves or signs a new 3 year contract because I think most people are fed up with the Benitez contract situation being an issue every week.

Guest chopey Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I still think if he was going to sign he would have done so by now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I still think if he was going to sign he would have done so by now You’re probably right, but it’s entirely possible that Ashley genuinely thinks Rafa is going to fold and accept his terms, and is surprised there is an impasse.

Tiresias Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Hmmm I suspect he will prefer signing a one year deal tbh so he can leave if the promised investment doesn't happen. The club will want to tie him down longer than hang him out to dry with usual lies about transfer budgets etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Am I allowed to give it hope that the 1 year extension is to give new owners options? In the event they don't want him, they only need to wait a year (not sure i'd want such owners) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 1 year deal would be the worst as it just prolongs this waiting game. Finish it one way or the other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tribesman Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 More points than last season. More wins than last season. Less defeats than last season. More goals than last season. Better goal difference than last season. Yet we have finished lower than last season because other teams have invested in their squads. With some higher quality signings and getting them in early for pre season I think we can aim for 60 points next season if Benitez stays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
