title but for rotation, which as I've said (IMO) is utter .

Why then ?

Or wht is it largely down to ?

We used many a midfield combo, many a striker combo, numerous players were used in that period.

It's not my theory to disprove so I have no need to drag up the comparitive stat's, you're welcome to.

Numrous factors in varying proportions, the quality of the squad springs to my mind as one of the most pertinent factors - particularly quality on the wings, quality full backs who can overlap, and never ever having a striker of the Owen (because he wanted top leave), Fowler (because he was well past his best), Torres (because we couldn't afford him or anyone of his level of quality at the time) calibre in their prime, until now.

well you are the one questioning my comment so i guess we can just accept I am right or you would disprove it, just like wih my job eh?

:laugh:

i love the way you backpedal when you know you are wrong and if you think you are right you back up what you say with stats etc

It's not my theory to disprove, as I've said I don't subscribe to the view that we would have challenged but for rotation.

I know we used various midfield/attacking combo's in that period, that I know.

I don't know the comparitive stat's because it's not for me to prove that rotation/"Rafa style" doesn't work and inhibit consistency, and hence our ability to challenge for the title.

Even if you were to provide the stat's, it would form merely one dimension in analysing a period in which we were consistent.

TBH, I don't know about you or your job, but I know vice-presidents don't do 'Peewee behaviour', that much I can deduce.

yeah he spent 150million but we couldnt afford torres until now

Correct.

well consiidering you seem a staunch suporter of this method, try and prove how rotation does work ?

Not just in theory but from what we've seen of it and our end standings at the end of each season.

It's old ground Bamaga, I'm not going to repeat myself in every thread. If you wish, PM me if you're that interested - I'm sure if you asked nicely I could provide you with a few links to threads containing the relevant information.
