Rafa in frame

[HughieG]

i wont
im that sure rafa has found his level

he gets linked woth a lot
proabaly his agent

but doesnt get a lot after the madrid debarcle

even west ham side stepped him

I think West Ham were pretty interested but Rafa knew that potentially it would be a step to the side at best going to the Hammers (though Pellegrini will probably get more money to spend than Rafa).

Rafa signed with us very shortly after having managed one of the biggest clubs on the planet, it's hard (impossible) to say whether his stock has fallen (though it naturally did because he went from RM to us). It's true that no top clubs seem to be coming in for him and he's probably not at the same level as Guardiala, Mourinho, Klopp, etc. (anymore/yet) <-- that's not necessarily true, but could be.

i agree
the game moves on

this is why a lot of clubs dont stay with long term managers

he was found out at madrid in my opinion any way
just as the everton manager was whn he went to manure

players have the control
but you cab see from some of rafas decisions this year
he doesnt like players with opinions or dont do as he says

he wants to be the big man

I just don't think Ronaldo and Ramos liked his approach and they do have an enormous power at that club. But he did manage to have them on an unbeaten run for the first 11 games of the season and have them top of the their CL group. So not all that bad. It's just Real Madrid all over again. Very good isn't good enough.

And so it should be. He is the boss after all.

There has to be rules and regulations and it is the job of the man who is in charge to make sure these rules are apllied.
