Left behind? Methods look dated?

Last 3 seasons -

Chelsea 12/13 - Europa - 3rd in league

Signed - Demba Ba

Napoli 13/14 - Coppa Italia - 3rd in league

Signed - Mertens, Callejon, Higuain, Albiol, Reina (loan), Zapata, Ghoulam, Henrique.

Napoli 14/15 - Supercoppa Italiana, currently 3rd in league, potentially win Coppa Italia and Europa league

Signed - Koulibaly, Michu (loan), Gabbiadini, Lopez.

Now lets see what Brendan has won.........let's look at his successful signings........

If Rafa is outdated, what is Brendan...prehistoric

Yeah, but he's won 2 major European Trophies since then, and a few cups.

That said, if Rodgers were to win the FA cup this year, he'd more or less be at the level Rafa's been performing at for a few years.

Without wanting to sound disrespectful, nothing that Shakily said is particularly relevant in today's football world. The game, the stakes, the money, the competition...everything has moved on beyond comprehension - it is pointless bringing up his old quotes. Conveniently, he waited until he'd won the top flight for the first time before saying it!

that's a fair point you make so I'm going to remove the shanks bit....
