I take your point, he is similar in terms of playing style. However they are night and day in terms of pedigree of clubs managed and what he has achieved and won in the game.

Not sure we could turn our noses up at Rafa. It’s a bit contradictory from me but the guys a winner.

Also don’t think we have a snowballs chance in hell of attracting him to Selhurst.

Rafa Benitez has managed some of the biggest clubs in the world and has won the League and various cups in different countries.

Newcastle under him were not the easiest to watch but he did get them promoted back to the PL the season after they were relegated.
His overall record in football management is impressive.
I don't expect to see him on the managerial 'throne' at our club.

I think you are probably right.

Lescott hitting the nail on the head on BT. Hodgson needs to find another way of scoring goals other than relying on moment of magic from Zaha.

Abysmal performance again. Who would have guessed. Passing horrific. Getting murdered in midfield again with playing just the 2. Hopefully Hodgsons not the only one who hasn’t noticed.

Side note. Old safe hands Hodgsons palace has conceded the second most goals in the league.

He has to go.

We're looking worse and worse.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Sorry Roy in the words of Catherine Jenkins “time to say goodbye “
