What makes me laugh is that certain fans who start topics like this, and have knee jerk reactions when we get rubbish results, they all of a sudden start analysing Rafa, the team, Gillette + Hicks etc, the whole god damn show
That was a mighty piece, but regardless of what climate Rafa is working in, players up for the challenge, or what have you, the simple issue and solution to this problem is this:
We have players who are not good enough to win the league. It's just about quality. I think Rafa has got a core of players who are outstanding: Reina, Carra, Finnan, Gerrard,babel, ALonso, and Torres.
The rest are just not good enough.
When Mourhinio came to Chelsea, he won two league titles on the trot. Reason? he had quality all over the park. and with quality comes consistency.
What is annoying about Rafa, is that he thinks rotation is ok, and cannot see the problem. trouble is, the players replacing other players are not neccesarily of the same ability.
We need Kaka, Ronaldhino, or similar calibre. players who perform consistently, and can open teams up.
up and coming players, just forget it. we need to break the bank.
Its so simple, it slaps you in the face like a kipper.
