andyc35i Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 It will be good see them because I was fuming earlier on when Redknapp said that the Newcastle fans were blinded by Rafa and the football we played during his tenure. Granted there were times when a load of rubbish was served up, but I remember those last six months being a marked sign of progression Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazarus Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Couldnt find all the xG type stats but found this https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/premier-league/formtabelle/wettbewerb/GB1?saison_id=2018&min=30&max=38&fbclid=IwAR0JiSOw4a60sgU0Jy74XNYLF86qc7azJWsVnBkf0evVYvjQnKG0pfAfKqo Basically states: 20th in the form table for the 1st quarter of season. 9th in the 2nd quarter 11th in the 3rd 6th in the final quarter.

GideonShandy Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Last 16 PL games of 2018-19 W 8 D 3 L 5 = 27 points GF 26 GA 17 Only four clubs -- Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Wolves -- got more points from their last 16 games. Took us up from 18th to 13th. Then Rafa left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlito Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Joined 3rd for goals scored from January-May 2019 I believe. I remember Rafa wanting to sign Almiron that summer but we haggled over the price from what I read. Shame we couldn't get him in to at least cover for the early absence of Rondon. Could have been another top half finish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 There's a bloke on twitter PB or something. Constantly arguing with everyone how Bruce is no better than Rafa. Pulls out screenshot of the league table and match results to back up his claims. He was still backing Bruce after last night. Some absolute bellends out there.

EmmaStone Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I don't have it with me right now but it looked like Rafa had some good performances in the past few months of his stint with Newcastle. There are a lot of problems in the the tracking because football is not a simple sport to track stats. However, people need to realize that he was so much better than what Steve Bruce is doing right now because they were at least competing for a good spot in the league and he was the one who stuck with Newcastle during the season they were relegated. It is tough for that to happen with the current lineup but there are sill some potentail to grow from any other player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paully Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 It’s obscene to compare the two as this buffoon shouldn’t be mentioned in the same breath as Rafa! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Steve Bruce is doing the reverse, taking Rafa's good team and starting well, then gradually turning to shit over a similar time period. Then the idiots in the press just look at the 2 points totals, see they're about the same and shout "But Bruce is as good as Rafa". Enough to make your head explode.

Still far better than anything we've managed since under Bruce. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/premier-league/formtabelle/wettbewerb/GB1?saison_id=2018&min=21&max=38 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
