The Official Rafa Benitez Appreciation Thread

Miss him. Hope it won’t be too long. @Rafman to confirm.

he gave us hope. He connected with the fans like no one since Keegan.

hope he comes back. Him and the fan base (bar pouchie) are symbiotically linked.

 

He won't come back unless there's a takeover. If there is a takeover I'm not sure I'd want him. Wish we had him over Bruce though

I just wanna see those specs get tucked into his top pocket again.

 

Unfortunately Duncan Castles is unfortunately wrong.

I've done better than the great rafa

 

And WUM might you be?

 

Not a very good one.

 

I would love to know who it is

 

I don't.

He's joined Southerner on my block list

 

Steve Bruce? Yeah, I've blocked him too.

 

I think it's Southerner

 

Him and Rafman are my only blocks

They add nothing

 

Rafmans funny I think

 

I must be one of the few who doesn’t want him back. The football under him was no better than now.

 

I don't want him

But i don't not want him, i that makes sense

 

I agree and disagree.

For me Rafa is light years ahead of Bruce in all respects.

Conversely, the style of football wasn’t easy on the eye but it was played relatively effective given the quality of players we had. That being said I much prefer the Keegan approach, real Roy of the Rovers stuff and would hope to get that style of manager but probably not the right type just at the moment.

 

Understand your point, but just ask yourself who you’d back to keep us up?

 

Unintentionally, which is tragic

 

Under Rafa we always have a chance in a game. Under Bruce we perpetually have no chance at all.

Bruce is beat before the game starts where Rafa installs self belief in his players.
