The shape we play and amount of drilling Rafa puts in makes them look better than they are imo. Still rather have these lads who are looking to improve and try hard than previous over the hill cunts mind I think i agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26161 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Good quotes from him here. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2018/03/19/rafa-benitez-sends-message-mike-ashley-newcastle-future-have/ Quote “Have I enjoyed this season? No, but maybe the word ‘enjoyment’ is different in English. I’m really pleased with my job. I like it. But enjoyment is when you score eight goals in the Champions League against Besiktas, a record. It's hard to see us achieving anything like that with Ashley at the helm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 Sadly nothing will change while Ashley is here and I think Rafa knows this, if we stay up we'll have one more season and he'll be away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19728 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 i'm starting to think he might see out his contract, even if ashley doesn't fuck off. he's an honourable man and he seems to have a connection with the club. leaving us in a better state than he found us, considering the lack of investment, would, in itself, be a big achievement.

Whoever that is wonders why people take issue with him calling the players "useless cunts" after a loss or disappointing draw. As if his was the rational behaviour of a grown man.

Five aside. Absolute crackerjack and no mistake. you’d be knocking the ball around a bit ‘warming up’ and pass it to him in goal, always in goal, and he’d keep the fucker for ages, practising his throw outs against the wall. Off the wall and back to himself a dozen or more times. This while the rest of us chat amongst ourselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 12736 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 We had a kid like that for a while. Scored once and did a Pat Lampard in the corner. Thought he was taking the piss until we realised he wasn't laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heatonrifles 18 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Innit standard characters of any five a side set up I guess. The lad who only ever plays upfront constantly blasting it. the kid who had trials but fell short. the Scott sellars the lad who can’t play at all and you wonder why he does it to him self week after week the cattermole etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 I've been looking at lineups from last season and comparing it with this season and that game at the weekend contained 7 players that featured regularly last season in The Championship. Yedlin Lascelles Dummett Shelvey Ritchie Perez Gayle If this isn't testament to the job Rafa has done this season I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic the Drug Wasp 6 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 He's the best manager we've had since Keegan and I hope we can see what he can do given the money to add quality. I subscribe to the school of thinking that we know what we're talking about as well, as a collective. The mackems, even still now, probably don't understand our optimism after 'winning relegation'.
