That would be ideal but.

We would need a proper ambitious owner before that could happen Kev.

Just say he will stay. As long as all of the lads get a free bike and a pair of ****ty old shin pads. Also pick up some glasses for Joselu. I think he has been playing with two glass eyes.

Hopefully as long as Rondon stays fit we won’t see much more of Joselu

I would love to see Rafa stay and build up a decent squad but that depends a great deal on how he is backed in the next window. Ashley is a gambler but won’t want another relegation.

I think the lack of decent transfers in the Summer made the majority of sane minded fans realise we faced another relegation battle before the season even started.

It will go down as another Ashley to u if he lets rafa walk

we goy ki shar rondon fernandez and a few others
3 of those have proved good signings when rafa plays them one is ok

noy many teams have spent well and improved

we didnt spend a lot but the squad has improved

from last season

rondon has improved te front line better than joselwho
ki given us options in the middle we didnt have last season
fernandez should keep lascelles out and is a very good player
and sher gives us some biye
not many brought 4 player who improved the team from te previous season




ki has given us more in the middle

I'm in two minds about wanting him to stay.
I personally think his ego and stubbornness is a mixture of a mild help and a major hindrance to the overall squad set up.

If he could walk into my office (assuming I was owner) and promise me he would set his squad out to entertain in terms of setting them up to go out for a win instead of setting them up not to lose, then I'd be more inclined to hang him onto a 3 year contract as a starter.

I'd set him a budget based on that premise of maybe an initial 50 million cash plus his own wheeling and dealing, but with strict instructions that further transfer dealing will be with much reduced cash outlay and based much more on him selling to finance.

I'd tell him that all player sales will be his kitty with maybe 20 million a season added to it if necessary.
There would be a wage ceiling that I would not cross, no matter what. I would never go over a set wage budget and any player coming to this club would then be under no illusions about trying to hold the club to ranson, which then waters down the mercenary potentials.

As it stands with Rafa and Ashley is this: If Rafa signs a new contract then he's go no excuses, because he will have surely covered it to walk away in the event of his deal not being met and the club would certainly be under no illusions about no honouring it.

I think this was more than ironed out last time and is why he hasn't walked...just bemoaned. But anyway, new contract and new chapter, maybe?
Or new manager and new start?

I'd be more than happy to keep Rafa if the Bournemouth game was the stall set out in the main, especially at home against ANY opposition.

5 years. With a plan in place for those five years backed up with watertight, spending promises to accomodate Rafas plan to be a regular top 6/CL places challenging side by the end of it. All transfer profits reinvested and a cut of the sky money. Proper sponsorship payments, investment in youth, training facilities, and SJP freshened up. That would do me.

Rafa's not stubborn just to.be a cnt. He sees these players every day and has reasons for his decisions not to mention a CV to back it up. Hes a seasoned manager who has forgotten more about football than all of us know.
