This bloke made Longstaff into a £50m rather footballer.

 

I really believe it his mentoring and system that got Longstaff putting in those performances. Scary to think how well he'd have done if Rafa was here all way through.

Just love hearing Rafa explain the need for balance. It's not just formation and system, it's players with different attributes alongside each other to increase overall potential of the side. God I miss this great man managing us.

Still find it really painful. Hate that he left.

 

I can’t even watch these clips on here.

 

Same.  Can't bring myself to listening to how intelligent he is compared to the potato who's in charge now, coincidentally I've never watched one of that pricks interviews yet either.

I can watch watch Rafa clips ok.

95/96 can get in the fucking sea though. Agree with that. Can't watch a second of it.

Staggering to me that the most joy I've had watching NUFC in the Mike Ashley era was Rafa's time. The happiest I've felt since the 5th season (and SBR days prior to that) was when Jack Graelish scored for Villa and whilst listening to our match on NUFC's internet radio broadcast the news trickling out that we leaped into 1st place in the Championship. I bloody celebrated like it was us winning the PL, the FA Cup or something.

 

All I wanted was some hope, some pride and Rafa gave that to us. He demanded this NUFC be the best version it could be and wanted everyone to fall in line.

Great thread

 

 

Exactly right

 

Great read until you come to the replies, with people like Jay Jay and Paul Anthony piping up with the standard nonsense you hear from people who for some reason didnt like Benitez.
