What Ashley statement basically ment.

If Rafa buys the players and they're not played or shipped out or sent to Coventry etc, then of course they're down to Rafa. Why would they be down to anyone else?

Unless you can tell me which players were bought without Rafa's consent?

As for the loans...of course it's a case of luck whether they immediately hit the ground running. Look at Dubravka and Kenedy....then take a look at Slimani.
All down to the lucky dip.

Haha...okay then...dismiss the fact he wanted a keeper in the summer and finally got one and it improved results. Ignore the fact he wanted Kenedy in the summer.

And if it's all down to luck...you can't blame him for any signings...it's a lucky dip!
Plonker!

Imagine if he'd brought in Sels in January and not Dubravka. Have a think on that.
