Thank you Rafa

I cant believe im saying this but he has gone far up in my estimation I hope he gets a top job somewhere.

 

i go with that, third and the europa, it looked like he went straight down the tunnel at the final whistle? shame if so, im sure he would of got a deserved round of applause.

 

He has regulated the squad well. I'll give him that

 

Fair play, bye bye.

 

Yeah, cheers for not completely ****ing our season up. You did better than I expected you to.

 

He is a decent manager no Ferguson or Mourinho but still a decent manager.

 

It worked in the end. He leaves with a great deal of respect from me.

 

I'm pleased to see him get at least a little credit for what he's done for you guys.

He's done a top job in my book - 3rd and the Europa? It's not 6th and the CL but still - damn good

 

Has changed my view of him, thanks Rafa you done a great job and many thanks for that

 

No, he made the humble decision not to come out for applause, which was the right decision.

 

Rafa done well in the end. Still wouldn't say he done amazing and an out of this world job but he done a good job and i thank him and wish him well! Gets a 250k bonus off Roman for 3rd as well so enjoy!

 

Considering the number of games we've had to play, he has worked a miracle! He gets a thumbs up from me

 

I second that -he steadied the ship during an awkward transition period given extra spice by unwanted distraction (clattenburg). We managed to stay competitive bar one competition and managed to put something in the trophy cabinet so thanks Rafa & I wish you well in your next venture.

 

I was cooking earlier and indulging a a vodka tonic or two, when this same thought occurred to me.

Then I remembered the article on the bbc the other day that showed his and RDM's record side by side.

Both had a 57% win ratio and played near the exact same number of games.

**** him, Robbie would have done just as well.

 

Since Boro and him saying he was leaving and the crowd stopped reacting it's 67% win ratio. I said at the time that it hurt us and it did. Luiz and the players are speaking highly of him so I'll go with their views.

 

That's a bit more of a favourable stat, I have to admit.

 

I'll hand it to Rafa his rant after the Boro game took guts but it paid off.

 

He certainly leaves with more respect from Chelsea than when he arrived. And with another trophy on his famous CV.
He did a decent job, and good luck to him.
Hope he gets a decent job.
Funny if he went to Everton! He thought the abuse from Chelsea fans was bad haha

 

Fair play lads. He's a good man at heart.

He wouldn't get mass abuse if he went to Everton.

He did a lot for us, and still does with Hillsborough.

 

fair play to him. best wishes from me for his next venture.
