Will R*fa Last the Season?

Very serious question.
Don't think for a second that Roman won't have what he did to José's treble-winning Inter in the back of his mind.
Do you think he'll risk finishing out of the Top 4 and losing all the spirit in the dressing room to keep this clown until summer, or ax him if things don't start picking up within a month or so?

No. He won't make it. Roman isn't that stupid and if we keep this up, he is gone for sure.

What a joke.. RDM should have stayed ffs Wish he'd come back but he's got too much dignity in him to do that

Maybe I'm being optimistic but I can see him improve. Nothing dramatic like last season but I doubt we'd crazily decline

I doubt we will.

The team loved and played for RDM, Rafa won't be able to recapture that.

i've gotta say, Roman's business model is very effective so far...as long as he doesn't mind spending money every time he fires a coach. That being said, I am actually glad now that RDM is gone [mu's perspective]. Rafa probably can't and won't be able to do anything as well as RDM, and he'll get fired eventually. Hope that RDM can come back...in the future.

This thread is worth discussing in the general section.

Take Pardew pls.

LMAO, no thanks.
But chin up, you only have to wait it out a mere SEVEN years til his contract is up, eh....

Cold

Speaking of Pardew:

"I am talking to him(Cisse) and trying to calm him, tell him that he's still the same player and we are still very confident in him," Pardew told reporters.

He added, "It's only been a small period if you compare it to, say Torres' period, but you would have to say it's something we are going to have to keep an eye on because we don't want it to end up like poor old Torres has ended up at times.

That has to be one of the most irresponsible, impulsive decisions ever. Second being City giving Mancini a 5 year deal when he was likely 30 seconds away from being sacked in the first place until Aguero came to his rescue.

Agreed it was retarded but i'm use to retarded decisions under Ashley lol.

One thing about Roman at least he never gives his managers long contracts lmao.

Might help if he stopped playing him on the wing and hoofing it to him expecting him to be Drogba 2.0 and bully defenders

Cisse is a fantastic finisher and has fantastic movement there is nothing wrong with him he's just being horribly misused.

He would score shit loads for you actually well before Rafa took charge and cared more about 0-0 draws than winning games lol.

For the sake of the club I hope he lasts... it would be shameful n highly imbalancing to change managers like this..

....which is why Robbie never should have gone in the first place.

I agree on your points, personally thought Newcastle was going to take another step forward from last season. Didn't expect Pardew to tactically regress like he has. 8 more years huh? should have at least put in opt out clause in there.

Well at least Cisse is not going through a "Torres period". I do rate him and higher then BA personally. Watching Cisse out wide is like watching Cavani on the wing for Uruguay. Absolutely pointless.

He will last, I guess it's going the right way in a silly way. Setting up the foundations first, but still his dropping of Mata was the most retarded thing ever.
