I actually don't know what it is. 
It's Rafa mate. C'mon even you have to see it now, it's blindingly obvious. How can a team that was only 4 pts off the top last year, scored the most, had the highest goal difference and played several decent teams off the park all of a sudden turn into a side who struggle to eek out results against the worst of teams and have an abysmal away record?
Rafa didn't inherit this squad. If he did he may, just may, get some respite. He built his squad, took them as high as they could go (performance wise) last season and now they're on the way back down again.
I honestly think you just need a fresh start.
Yeah. But also, how can professional footballers not pass a ball 10 yards? Look, Rafa has to accept the blame. Even I'll acknowledge that. But those players have been utter sh*te for him or for whatever reason.
Agree that we peaked last year (and it still wasn't enough). I just think that if we get a new manager in, then it's another 5 years before we could even possibly challenge for the title; and that's hoping that we could actually improve and not spiral down.
I just so badly want Rafa to succeed to f**k over all the doubters. I genuinely believed it would happen after last season....
If Rafa was sacked, I couldn't argue with it. We have simply been awful all season. But I want him to walk through the storm.
