I'm very confident about the future with Rafa- he's clearly gonna get a few new players over the next year or so and i think the way we've been playing has been pretty good. Losing to man-u and Chelsea away is to be expected more times than not (isnt it 1 win in something like 12 games away to Chelsea). Also Bolton away is a very tough fixture- don't get me wrong i expect to be running these teams harder when Rafa has had at least half a year in charge, but at the moment i dont think we can of asked for much more.
