God knows!! I dont think that was ever properly explained either! Dont think that did Carlo much good either seeing as the two of them seemed to get on and managed to make things work.Board being their usual stupid selves

Its kinda a scary thought...even scarier that someone somewhere sees him as an ideal replacement!

Exactly if he does go...you dont want whoever it is who takes over (not Rafa) to go down the same 'oh everythings okay the players want to be here and will play well' route.Then as it gets going realise they're in a bad situation and have to wait ages till they can make changes etc ir paid to play football and paid a hell of a lot!Need to remember that and sodding start They need to get their acts together.

Depends what team turns up..if they go the way they did against Valencia then we have a good shot..perform like today and gana be embrassing. AVB today picked a team which pretty much is capeable of results...if they didnt play like shite as well then we would've gotten a result!

Think so.We were pretty poor at some point then everyone else got a bit worse

Yeah thats the thing,I'd be happy for him to play young team and bench the others but its never gana happen because a few complaints and volia..

Newcastle can go level again with us if they win...we've gotta a better goal diff but still they've appeared suddenly

Its gotta be hard as well coming in midway through summer with little time to acces their weakness and work out fully what sort of players he needs.Last if he stays he'll have a clear idea

Probably find it hard finding someone to deal with the egos and the fact after a bad run they could easily be gone

Early April fools/really really bad joke..bloody hope so

Should've played..he may not be the best player but he does try and sometimes gets lucky..and couldnt been worse then any of the ones out there today

I think we need a sodding miracle really....oh god B'Ham away...we're shite there as well!

A mistake which no doubt be made by the next manager because they do tend to perform fine to start then as soon as the season gets going surprise!

Pretty much are! Lets steal Van Persie then everything be all good! He's keeping them going at the mo

Defintly been watching Torres to much lol..trying out do his misses!

And make the players realise you cant play like shite and expect magically a top 4 finish.

I think it helped Arsenal and whoever else went crap...this time it aint happening and we're struggling

Yeah against Man U,City,Valencia they turned up and played bloody good..then the games after you could tell the approch to it was exactly that 'its only so and so doesnt matter if we dont try we'll somehow win' then lo and behold not so much

The games following his benching were some of his best performances this season.Just a shame for whatever reason AVB feels he cant do that anymore.It done his fitness good and done him good really

Exactly!!! You cant replace the manager when the problem will still remain! They'll play well for a few games then go back to being shite as they have in the past

Exactly 18 months ago...been a while since then.They were pretty shit last season..espically the last few games clearly didnt a crap then and just carried on from then really it seems.Turn up to the odd few games as a team and the rest of the time...indivudal performances

Waiter!!!! Oh lordy him on the touch line with his mental hand movements...media have a field day if we did hire him! He aint exactly dont wonders since leaving Liverpool..or did much while he was there!! Okay won three trophies but two on pens! And then kinda fucked around with things the rest of the time

I dont think it matters who we get at the moment...the players seem to be part of the problem.....and agree he might as well bench the ones who arent perfoming and bring on those who want to play and will make an effort!! But then again player power and all that crap that keeps happening....that never happen And bog off Rafa.That is many steps backwards!

Exactly.They made the effort,we fucked around.Defintly deserved it. Just depressing...and the attitude of some players is just pathetic.Feel sorry for Cech one of the few who seemed to want to win or least get something out the game

When only team goes for it no shocker about the result.Its beyond a joke now...feel sorry for the fair few players who wanted to win.Cech espically Team that was fielded in theory should've been capeable of getting a result....and you'd think they'd respond to being under pressure as well.Apprantly not! Fans deserve better...the ones who went all that way defintly deserved a whole lot better! Yet we're the ones peed off and the players just walz away with their dosh..
