    i know what i would prefer to watch

    negative footy has nothing to do with results its the way in which you play
    But Pboro, we have to be down to earth and realistic here.

    We would all love to see the team play the way KK had them playing, but the problem is with Ashley more than it is with Rafa.

    You are looking at about £250 million at least at today's prices to build a team compared to what KK paid at his time, and remember that he broke the ten world record to bring Shearer home.

    Could you see Ashley sanctioning that, even for regular Champions League football. and would Ashley sanction the huge wages those sort of players would demand to stay here. Answer, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER.

    Another point is that how many clubs in the Premiership play that way now.

    Answers on a postage stamp.
