Retool Time

Just a few quick thoughts on priorities for the offseason. 1. Yes, I think we can all agree that a suitable partner / replacement for Torres is a must. As we’ve read and heard nearly everywhere lately the Mancs can toss in their offensive pairing of choice more often than not while we’re forced to push the likes of...

Rafa Benitez almost quit

I thought as much! Over the last couple of months when Rafa was refusing to sign the new contract, many had suspected that he may just quit. I recall reading some reports that talk of Rafa quitting was not true but now he has come out and said that the thought of quitting had crossed his mind. It was only natural to think that he...

The next 2 weeks will be critical as Rafa decides on his future

Rafa’s contract saga could finally be resolved in the next two weeks, according to Rafa himself. The boss wants his contract sorted out in the next two weeks with the American owners. I hope that this time around everyone agrees and we have no more drama and Rafa signs the contract and everyone is happy and life can go...

What is going on with Rafa’s contract?

Your guess is as really as good as mine! I am getting sick and tired of this! Who are we to blame: Rafa or the American Owners? I think it has now boiled to the fact that Anfield is no longer big enough for both Rafa Benitez and Rick Parry. One of them has to leave and I hope it is Parry. There is no way we can afford to loose...

Is Rafa right to field a ‘B’ team against Everton in F.A. Cup?

There is suggestion that Rafa will rest key players for this weekends F.A. Cup tie against Everton at Anfield. I am not too sure if this is a good idea. Yes, our priority is the league and then the Champions League but surely we can not take the F.A. Cup lightly especially since it is against Everton of all teams. We have to win...

Is Rafa losing it now?

I was quick to come out and support Rafa for the stance he took last week Friday against Sir Alex Ferguson. I thought that was a once off and the last we would hear from Rafa but he has continued further now and I think he is loosing it now! The Spaniard questioned whether Manchester United chief executive David Gill should be...

Rafa’s attack on Sir Alex: Well done Rafa

As I watched Rafa’s press conference before the Stoke game on Saturday, I could not help but get up off my feet and give Rafa a round of applause. Someone needed to come out and ‘attack’ Ferguson and I am glad is was our own manager who took matters into his own hands. Ferguson has been getting away with a lot,...

Rafa named manager of the month

Congratulations to Rafa for being named manager of the month for October. We won four straight matches in October and we are currently joint top of the Premiership. “I am really pleased to receive this on behalf of my staff because they are doing very well. People like Sammy Lee, Mauricio Pellegrino, Xavi Valero and Paco Di...

Give Rafa a new contract!

Reports over the last 48 hours are suggesting that Juventus are lining up Rafa Benitez as their new manager. Now our American owners have not given Rafa a new contract and if I were Rafa I would be worried as to why are they not giving me a new contract. It is no secret that the owners approached Klismann once upon a time and that...
