Apart from the odd few voices Rafa is loved by the fans and DIC would know this .And werent we top scorers last year ? i know we were first to get to 100 goals so how does that make rafa limited as an attacking coach ?
Because If DIC come in they be looking to invest 500 mil in the club.
No way they going to keep a manager who has been not great in league and sets up teams to draw vrs teams like villa.
They will bring in some one who is agressive and can spend a transfer budget of say 80 mil a season 3-4 top players rather then 10 stop gaps.
Rafa has had to buy stop gaps due to not having 80 mil pound to spend on players every summer - look at the players he has got when he is able to spend big - torres and masher to name two - he knows the players he wants but unfortuantly limited budgets have meant he has had to settle for second choice - not his fault yet despite all this we are still up there with the best - just a couple more 20 mil players needed - give rafa the money to do that and then you will see us .
Set up for a draw after loosing our best striker ? yet brough another striker on ?? maybe he was abit cautious with the sub for yossi but he didnt start that game going for a draw - he picked the best 11 he had and we had chances to win - they just werent taken - keane for example.
You are missing the my point he has had the money ever season to buy top players but due to his ideas of rotation he buys many players over a few top players.
Any one who defends last nights game gets no respect from me at all.
It was one of the worst teams i have seen setup ever end off!
How much has he had to spend this summer then ? seems to me he has had to sell ti raise cash to get players . last summer was the first summer he really had a chance to spend big and did it very well indeed .
And lets not go into rotation again as every club does it - but the difference is the mancs and chelsea have better more expensive and higher quality options to bring in do rotate because they have been able to spend more money . yeah rafa could blow his whole budget on one player every summer - what happens when that player gets injured ? and how many games can that player play before beiing fecked - take arsenal for example last year - started off great but had no options to bring on throughout the season and faded aw\y due to tiredness.
and if you think yesterdays came was set up the worst ever you got a very short memory as remember GH teams,evans teams, souness teams being far far far worse than that . getting a draw at a top 6 team was a good result at the end of the day .
I was talking about in rafas era with setup.
Yes he had to sell to buy but that doesn't meen after he has sold he didn't have the cash there to buy a few top players.
he sold players and had enough for a 20 mil pound striker and a 7-8 mil left back (which was needed ) and now it seems a 8 mil left sided midfielder which is definatly needed plus a few kids .
so this summer he has got top players just like last summer bar voronin .
