Odd Rafa quote about Newcastle

[BG]

"There are reasons why we lost the gane but I can't go into them now"

 

What's that about?

 

I thought it wasn't much more complicated than missing easy chances.

Independent I think (Monnday's)

[Sheida V]

Maybe he thought it was down to individual mistakes and he didn't want to name any players.

[floyd the barber]

well rafa was going mental at riise on the touchline about 5mins before he gave away the penalty (it looked pretty obvious rafa was pissed with riise consistently playing hopeless high balls forward down our left hand side)

 

my bet....the Rafa quote is about Riise giving away a weak penalty.

[Shadow Moon]

according to the report on bbc sport, rafa also said:

 

"After the first half, the score could have been 0-3 or 0-4.

 

"But we conceded a stupid goal and then a stupid penalty, and after that, it is difficult to win."

Both their goals were gifts. Other than that, they never looked like scoring.

Riise was poor Saturday..couldn't string 2 accurate passes together.

This from the Echo - it's all a bit muddled, mind.

 

?The conditions are no excuse. We played well in the conditions in the first half. We were doing everything right until the second half. Then we started making mistakes.

 

?With the pen, John said it could be. It was stupid and you need to be more careful in the penalty box. This is a lesson for the future. You need to work hard always.?

And it makes me sick as a parrott to say that

Its very rare you see an interview with a manager or player that gives you some insight into what?s going on.

Most players are boring. Sorry to use Stevie Gerrard as an example, but if you re-run an interview of his from two years back against one today and it?s the same word for word. Rio is another one.

I actually think Gary Neville gives a good interview.

I know, I have spoiled it now haven?t I?

Yeah, I know what your saying, however I would take a boring interview over Ian f***ing Holloway.

"I always say that scoring goals is like driving a car. When the striker is going for goal, he's pushing down that accelerator, so the rest of the team has to come down off that clutch. If the clutch and the accelerator are down at the same time, then you are going to have an accident."

"I've got to knock that horrible smell out of my boys, because they smell of complacency."

"I have such bad luck at the moment that if I fell in a barrel of boobs I'd come out sucking my thumb."

"Every dog has its day, and today is woof day! Today I just want to bark!"

 

 

I can see why.

Exactly, and now, he has some sort of fame for this (they follow him on the champiosnhip programme and a column on the BBC website) so he keeps spouting his country bumpkin garbage

Rafa. He's a bad mutha.
