I remember when Rafa first came we were told his very presence would attract world class players. I see precious little evidence of it up to now. He hasn't half bought some shite players mind.
Imagine if he had just stuck with Colback and Mitro and saved the money on Joselu and Diame? All 4 are poor but in my mind Colback and Mitro probably the better choice on balance. He would have had 10m and 2 mens wages to attract a proper striker from somewhere. Ok maybe an aging player without sell on value, but whats the sell on value gonna be for Joselu and Diame?
Some strange decisions been made but hey, as we all know its not Rafa's fault. How could it be?
I see Ashley as a pimp,the managers he employs as hookers, and we the supporters and fans as the punters .
For years the pimp fed the punters a succession of cheap and disease ridden street hookers.
Being streetwise himself,he realised that the high rate of std's inflicted on them as a consequence would eventually piss enough off and possibly create a problem further down the line.
He stemmed any potential rebellion by splashing out a whopping 4 million quid for a high class but ageing hooker.
It worked a treat,the punters were totally seduced by the whores reputation and gleefully threw their hard earned money at her,seemingly forgetting the pimp was raking it in.
They still got the same old f***ing,but bizarrely took great pleasure in slagging off the old skanky street hookers of the past while proudly singing the name of their pimps latest employee.
At present,the pimp is still raking in the loot and the number of reported std's have fell dramatically.
Unfortunately the majority of punters have now contracted full blown aids.
Of course they don't realise it yet because it's not as obvious as an std.
No doubt the pimp his whore and his henchmen will be long gone by the time they rapidly start losing weight.
