golfpunk Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Avram Grant had a great record at Chelsea IIRC. Scolari wasn't given a chance IMO and should never have been sacked so quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mascherano20 Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yes Rafa sometimes drives me crazy with team selections and rotations etc. But to call him the worst manager at a top 4 club since the Premiership began is a bit harsh, imo. I mean he is tactically spot on in Europe most of the time and his European record is proof of this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kert Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yes Rafa sometimes drives me crazy with team selections and rotations etc. But to call him the worst manager at a top 4 club since the Premiership began is a bit harsh, imo. I mean he is tactically spot on in Europe most of the time and his European record is proof of this. Tactically he is terrible, when you have a side as strong as Liverpools playing your best 11 and 4 - 4 - 2 will beat most teams in the league. Yet Rafa seems to complicate things. And how on earth can he justify playing Ngog and Kuyt upfront when he has sold PROVEN goal scorers such as Keane and Crouch?? Don't get me started on his press conferences, can barely understand a word and he comes across as a rambling idiot most of the time. Calling Everton a small club just about summed up his attitude to the Premiership, and why he constantly throws away any chance Liverpool have of winning it. Its no wounder you drop points to the likes of Boro and Stoke if Rafa has that attitude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
russ the womble Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Would be good if Avram got another chance in the prem with a medium sized club, I reckon he'd do well. Rafa has had his chance at Liverpool really. Maybe one more season but really he's had enough opprtunities to compete for the title. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannan300188 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 On my game it went Fergie (June 2011) --> Phelan (May 2015) --> Mourinho (January 2016)--> Ole (caretaker 1 day) --> Ramos (Dec 2017) --> G.Neville (current in Apr 2018) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0x0r Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Phelan took the job in 2011, after Fergie finished 1st, 4th then 2nd. Phelan has managed 1st, 2nd, and is currently 3rd in his 3rd season.His first two years saw him break the 90 point barrier both years, with 93 then 90. He was really unlucky to finish 2nd to an unbeatable Arsenal, with the legendary John Mason in charge. But yeah, Phelan is my toughest foe, and I imagine I'll be fighting him and United for a good few years yet. Chelsea and the Pool have imploded though. Chelsea have finished 6th, 3rd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and are currently 6th. Jose's back, but doesn't seem to be much good in the league, but did lift the Champions League last year. Ancelotti was probably better than him, even if he did end up slipping to 4th and getting fired. Liverpool finished 3rd, 5th, 4th, 5th, 13th, and are currently 4th. Bento may well have saved them since replacing Benitez, who amazingly held on to his job until the 13th place finish. City, still under Hughes, are the not so suprising revelation, finishing 9th, 2nd, 7th, 2nd, 3rd, and are currently 2nd. How long will they stand for him being second best, not to mention tending to have bad seasons every few years, though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
