I would rather see Kuyt taken out of line up with Babel on the right, Keane up front on his own and Gerrard sitting behind Keane in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

I reckon Rafa will play Reira in the centre, just behind the cf, and leave Keane and Kuyt on the flanks! Rafalogical! :O

Is he going to be a substituting forward? Is he going to substitute into one of the wings? He doesn't seem to have a firm role in the squad now anymore.

Right wing mate gotta be Kuyt on bench or up front till torres is fit.

I wouldn't hold your breath on Rafa playing Babel at RM.  Just a feeling.  :glare:

Is it possible to predict where anyone will play when Rafa's in charge???

1) The top-class left winger we've all been waiting for.

2) An average left winger - a slight improvement on what we already have.

3) A complete waste of money in every sense - no better than what we already have.


My money's on option 2.

No - my mate was speaking to a City fan who said he was good and City DID want to sign but couldn't afford him.

According to Balague, the problem for him at City was that they utilised him as a wingback. That gives me more faith. Still, I'd better not give Rafa ideas...

City signed Robinho and We signed Riera. Of course they (City fans) gonna say he's good especially after all that ( they  pity us...just to make us feel better). Our standards are getting lower everyday,....thanks to Yank d1cks and that f@cking clown.
