magvicar Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 There's room to batter both managers, Bruce and Rafa and I'm basically saying Rafa wasn't all that. If people believe he was some kind of messiah then that's entirely up to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magvicar Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Just now, MrRaspberryJam said: Agreed, no idea how Bruce dismantled it so easily. Rafa dismantled it by some of his choice and by obvious relegation departures of players who didn't want championship football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 (edited) Rafa helped create the basis for Howe imo. Got players in who gave a shit and 'got it', revitalised the support and helped make it clear that Ashley was our barrier to success (if anyone couldn't already figure that out). It says something that the likes of Murphy, Lascelles and Ritchie still play a key part in our squad. Howe has taken us to the next level and whilst that is largely down to his dedication and desire to be the best he can be, it is somewhat down to the character of those already present at the club and having backing from the board. Anyone slating Rafa is looking through some sort of bizarre rose-tinted glasses for me. Edited April 11, 2023 by Heron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was handed a good old pot of money to get deals done. If you want to buy a car with no cash but you have a gold watch that will cover the cost then it's still a buy for what the buy was if someone else offered cash. This net spend is just a smokescreen.

I mean, obviously 9/11 was an inside job, the moon landings were shot in a studio, and JFK was assassinated from the grassy knoll. No-one is going to argue those.

Is this a kink? You know you can get people to hurl abuse you and degrade you in real life right. They'll even dress up in leather and stick a gag in your mouth if you pay extra.
