Wouldn't be shocked if there's an element of truth in this.
The way Rafael was treated last season didn't make sense from a footballing perspective.
Rafael - LVG Didn't like me

Predictable.
No other reason to play valencia ahead of rafa other than a personal issue.
----------------------------------
The reason I am pretty sure was height. LVG highlighted that we were a short team and many of his selections last season saw shorter players on the bench in favour of taller ones.

Don't take this the wrong way, but are you a bit of a whoopsie?

Ah that made me laugh. A bit of whoopsie! Oh, Betty.

One word; Fellaini. So it ain't your curly haired barnet at fault, Rafa. Try harder.

I love Rafael, going to miss the little fella.
Impossible to know what was going on in his head but he seemed as passionate about the club as I was.
I hope he has a brilliant career and we almost regret selling him (just about don't regret it because Darmian plays so well! )

It is quite possible that LvG recognises that Rafael is a championship level fb - just like his brother is.
nothing really sinister in that, just a fact of life.
grow up and move on I say, and best of luck to him.
