Re: Benítez quashes Alonso rumours
If Rafa wants to buy more rope let him. The bottom line is a league challenge or P45 next summer. His annual bluff/flirtation with other clubs will be laughed at if he doesn't deliver next season.

No it won't, that was this years mandate and he's gotten another year after failing to deliver on the league challenge.

Its all if buts and maybes at the moment,
BUT IF Alonso stays AND we get Barry and it was at the expense of say Nasri or Quaresma then Rafa might as well pack his bags

Re: Benítez quashes Alonso rumours
Rashid, what if Rafa wins the European cup next season? Would you still want him sacked if we fail to put in a league challenge?

Re: Benítez quashes Alonso rumours
Depends on the amount of money he is given Rash, we can't demand a title challenge if he is given a pittance compared to Chelsea/Man Utd.

Now come on Cardie, that's the most blatant attempt at making a certain forumite go postal that I've ever seen.

RedHorse must have been busy giving Radish that much rep AND giving him his daily dose of manlove.

Re: Benítez quashes Alonso rumours
He has the money for Barry though right? It's not just about money of which he has spent shit loads, it's about how it is spent. League challenge or he should go.

We'd never get away with a 6-6-3 formation, even if Uriah Rennie was ref.

We should keep Kewell and hide 4 players behind him.

Re: Benítez quashes Alonso rumours
Sky Sports News are running a story about the teams who have spent most in the last ten years.

Chelsea are miles away in first place then its Man United followed by Liverpool.

Only two teams can pay upto £30 million for numerous players and those two teams are currently first and second in the Premier League and are looking forward to also playing against each other in the Champions League final.

Re: Benítez quashes Alonso rumours
The £18m for Mascherano included his wages so knock another £8m or so off the right hand column.
