Minhosa Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 What’s the Rafa contract situation in a nutshell lads? Sure one of you will know. One year left in China after this summer, based on his original deal, on huge money and has been a heavy influence on their planning and infrastructure investments. Would cost a huge amount, in manager terms, to get him I'd think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I think and hope it is Rafa. He started something, he should be able to finish it and with proper backing this time. Unless there was some elite, outrageously good manager like Ancelotti, Klopp or Guardiola available. Which obviously isn't going to happen. Then I can't really think of anyone I'd want more than Rafa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Has to be Rafa for me regardless of what level of investment is going to be put into the club. If the investment is significant anyone else that would never have touched us with a barge pole previously is here only for the money. It may read overly dramatic but Rafa gave me my club back when I’d all but lost the love for it. I believed in his vision and with any level of investment with an intention to be better I believe he is the right man to execute it. Should have just quoted this, actually.

Don't think I'd have him in the conversation with the 3 very unrealistic names I listed, no. Although I have just had a total block and realised Ancelotti is currently at Everton Maybe now we're owned by a country. We'll be quite a big draw.

He's been learning English for a while and has been waiting for the 'right job' in England since he resigned at Juve. He's won Serie A six times since the 2010-11 season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I would prefer we looked at alternatives to Rafa, I take all of the points about him having a blueprint and unfinished business etc, but i just wouldn't go back, it very rarely works. We've fond memories of Benitez and rightly so, but i'd leave it there, personally. Pochettino would be my first choice, I don't know enough about Allegri's style, but its obviously a very impressive CV! but Poch would be the one i'd go for. I feel the same, I'm surprised by the current poll results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
