Guest reefatoon Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 He’s obviously finished. Good job he didn’t get the opportunity to earn a shit load of sports washing money here and flop. Lucky escape now that we are able to keep Bruce. Thanks Premier League. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Bottom of the league with 2 points in 5 games. Needs to come back to Europe like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Wonder why it's all gone wrong. His stock will have plummeted now, you'd think. Didn't work at Real Madrid. Then Newcastle - and all the utter wank that comes with associating with this piece of shit club, plus the agenda that mounted against him from the media - then failure in China. Makes you wonder what calibre of job he's likely to get when he does come back to Europe. Some lucky twats mid-table in Spain, Italy or France will end up with him, I reckon.

Then Newcastle - and all the utter w*** that comes with associating with this piece of s*** club, plus the agenda that mounted against him from the media - then failure in China. Makes you wonder what calibre of job he's likely to get when he does come back to Europe. Some lucky t***s mid-table in Spain, Italy or France will end up with him, I reckon. Given the foreign player caps, I suppose he's at the whim of how good the Chinese players are (by the sounds of it shit). I can see him ending up at West Ham when Moyes is inevitably sacked.

Raconteur Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I don't think he'd go to a soulless club like West Ham He'll go to a place where all of his assistants are hired, and his "project" is implemented. Could easily be someone middling-but-ambitious - and West Ham spend enough to pretend to be ambitious... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chicken little Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I don't think he'd go to a soulless club like West Ham aye, in terms of culture and history and passion it would be just too much of a step-down from dalian professional f.c.

wormy Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I don't think he'd go to a soulless club like West Ham Wasn't it well-documented that he was close to going there before Real Madrid stepped in? Besides, say what you want about West Ham and that stadium but I wouldn't call them soulless. Certainly no less soul than the iteration of NUFC he gave a chance, either.

If Valencia ever gets decent ownership, I can see him going there. He is revered as a god there obviously due to his history. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Rafa himself admitted he didn't treat all his playing well at times as a younger manager, he learned that players were different and had to be treated as such. That's why he's so good, he still learns now, evolving as a manager. I've no doubt he'll be learning from his experiences in China. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Big shift of culture to China though. The amount of stick I have seen him given online (not here) by our own fans the past few days is truly shocking and mental. They truly get what they deserve.

rgk_lfc Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Would like to see him at Borussia Dortmund. I think they are far more likely to hire someone from Red Bull family - Nagelsmann, Hasenhuttl or one of Klopp's ex-coaches - Marco Rose. Rafa just doesn't fit their style of play.

Lotus Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I agree with you fwiw. I think he’d bring a level of pragmatism and I think he’d get them to win a trophy or two as well. But, as you said, think they’d regard him as too old school. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
