The same players that have helped relegate you twice in 8 years. Responsible for losing 6 Derby games in succession and fuck off to bigger clubs at the earliest opportunity?

You must be ower the knot with that!

Absolutely. Charlie Austin and Loic Remy went to QPR by mistake, for example

And Rafa could 'choose' to manage many a London club. But he's been to Chelsea, arsenal and spurs don't need him, and the rest would be a side step at best

Looking at Rafa's PL record. jury is still out tbh.

He had that one good season with Liverpool when they finished 2nd but there was a few 4th 5th and 6th place finishes with a lot of money spent.
Chelsea he took them over and they finished only 3rd quite a way off Man United who won the league
Went in with the Mags when he could have kept them up but took them down.

Hardly a glittering career CV in England. Dare I say it, he's rather overrated and his achievements have been somewhat glorified,

I think he was class for Liverpool - 1 CL, another final, finished second.....

He really didn't even spend that much when you consider the net spend. His problem was Hicks and Gillette.

He has never been the same since he fell out with his old assistant though - or was it more the guy wanted to become a manager on his own?

It is worth bearing in mind that he never won any LMA manager of the year awards, while Moyes has three.........

PUMPED - FECKING PUMPED :lol:

It is a good barometer that his peers felt Moyes was doing better work at Everton than the Mags gaffer did at the 'Pool.

(He also lasted longer at Man Utd, and did better in retrospect, than Rafa did at Real!)

We did, before we played Everton you were a premier league club and come around 9.40 pm after we beat Everton you weren't as we made it impossible mathematically for you lot to catch us

Based on yous not being good enough to be in the same league.

How can going from a lower division team to a top division one be a side step. Are you Lee ryder by any chance

So bourmouth, Burnley and stoke are bigger than villa, Birmingham and Leeds? (And us two)

Aye he did well in the CL but that's different from the meat and gravy of the PL. His record in England isn't actually that good.
