The only club in Europe that run themselves on that basis are Real Madrid and look how thats helped them.
Since Rafa has taken over we've got the best spine of a squad that we've probably had since the late 80's to the begininng of the 90's. We're probably one of the most feared teams in Europe. He's also done a lot of good work behind the scenes at Anfield which varey rarely gets a mention. All this with a fraction of the budget that the top six sides have.
what about chelsea? Inter?
mancini was sacked even though they won the league, but they are a much better team this season.
as for us being feared in europe, your just another deluded fan living in the past. we got knocked out in the group stage and we havent exactly been flying in europa have we?
I agree we have a great foundation for a team, but for me raa isnt the right man to utilise it
