Poor Rafa....

After dropping two games from the first 3 fixtures, it appears the sharks are circling Rafa. I do have to chuckle a little...first at the fact the heat is actually on him after playing 3 games!! This is a very long season, granted dropping points early is never a good thing, but to call Liverpool out of contention before the end of August is ridiculous. Of course this could not happen to a better manager, as I have stated over and over again, were it not for the 15 minutes of craziness during the Champions League Finals against ACMilan...Rafa would have been sacked a long time ago. I do not question his ability to strategize and execute tactics during a game, for that he is one of the best, I do question his ability to manage a team over a season and understand who to buy and sell. Best example for me last season when he brought in Keane let Voronin go out on a loan...then sells Keane back to Spurs in the winter and realizes he is a few strikers short....hmmmmm smart. Maybe Rafa could have used the 11 goals Voronin tallied last season....
