      Untrue. He has simply squandered a lot of points that he (or at least his management and coaching team) deserved.

      They have prepared very well for games, have been playing well but lack fitness and Rafa must have the worst in-game management I must have seen in some time. No better example of this than the Barça game.

      Even the staunchest of Barça fans would tell you that there was only one team on the park for the first 80 minutes. Celta played them off it but then played right into Barça’s hands with the most stupid tactical decisions (given the squad and the situation of the game). A tactical masterclass to a tactical disaster class in the blink of an eye. Panic and pressure of such a strong position. How ironic.

      Barça deserved all the 3 points that were only Celta’s by right. Barça didn’t play badly to be second best. Neither did they do something unforseen nor extraordinary to turn the game. It was all Celta’s credit earlier and all Celta’s blame later. One of the biggest throws I have witnessed recently.

        You are kind of making my point for me here TBH

        He’s not a complete donkey but he frequently makes bad decisions that swing games away from his team
