This is a forum where views can be shared surely ? And it is the Rafa thread as well.

Why can't people disagree with the pine-rs who yearn for Rafa's immediate return, considering we have a new manager in place?

I didnt say you couldn't disagree did I ?

I havent told you what or what not to post

Nothing, but after hearing you say it 1 million times it becomes quite boring.

I think admins should rename this the pining thread.  I've found a picture for it too.

Then don't read the thread.

It was boring when people like you were asking for him to be sacked every single day when he was the manager so I have no doubt you won't like to see people wanting him back as our manager - because sacking him ( as some "fans" wanted ) turned out well for us didnt it.

And until then we have to hear you every single day displaying your contempt for BR. 

Ok Bam

Glad we cleared that up.

I think there is a slight difference between wanting a return of favourite ex player to a squad and return of a manager to position which only been filled for one season so far

Anyway back to the actual thread "Rafa Appreciation"

Listening to Chavs fans this morning on the radio and the change in attitude from them is remarkable

Some even want him to stay

Imagine if Jose arrived and they won nothing

He took the Chelsea job with the aim of getting top 4 and a trophy if possible. He's done that and in the process becomes only the 2nd coach to win a European trophy with 3 different clubs. He can walk out with his head held up high and will get a job at another top club on the back of this.

I like what BR is doing so now isn't the time for Rafa to step back into LFC but with the swings and round abouts nature of managers in England I would not be surprised if the LFC job becomes vacant in a few years. I just hope that if/when it does Rafa is free as I think he deserves another crack. He turned us into one of the best clubs in Europe before and got us closer to winning the league than any other manager in the last 10 years so maybe with different owners in charge things could turn out different.

I for 1 hope he does come back to manage us some day. For those of you who feel otherwise you can go and do one. 

I agree with ya, him coming back one day was never in doubt, it would be great I'm sure. However, the constant comparing him to BR and pointing out BR's downfalls etc is tiring now. Not from you Tubby, but from some others.

as for Rafa, well done last night and massive respect to him for that!

He's done exactly as I expected there and to be honest some old frailties are still there.
You cant knock him as winning a european trophy is a great achievement so respect for that.
However the league form has been very hit and miss - especially given the quality they have at Chelsea.
Whoever takes over next season there should be aiming for the league not just top 4.

I think he did better than expected.  They'd only won 2 out of their last 8 games when he took over and were already out of the CL. Their season was starting to go downhill fast.

From 6th the previous season, they'll probably now finish 3rd and qualify for next seasons CL.
Out of the CL when he took over.  Whats the next best thing?  Motivate the players to go and win the EL and set up a chance of a Super Cup.
Did well in the cups too despite falling a little short.
Got a few goals out of Torres. 

He's laid the foundations for the next manager.

And I'm sure with the £100 million from the russian sugar daddy the new manager will reap the benefits....
