Rafa in his final season started the mid table trend where we finished 7th (behind Villa) and we were knocked out of the group stages of the CL.

there is a very slim chance that could happen again.....but not being placed below Villa.

However Rafa we get told was sold short in the transfer market by G&H....Rodgers is well backed by owner and most fans

Rafa in as a director of football?

Fsg have always wanted one, brendan has been hesitant, his "poor" transfer dealings could lead to them revisiting the old structure..

I'm a big supporter of Benitez but I'm happy with what Rodgers is doing. As a club we need to work on getting big players and stop with the potential. That's my only issue.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

We didn't really go the potential route this summer did we, with the exception of Origi.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd say we did.

Can
Markovic
Manquillo
Moreno
Origi

These players with potential cost over £50m.

What I'm saying is, there becomes a time when buying potential needs to stop and you need proven quality. I accept that has been difficult with us trying and failing with bids for Costa, Mkhitaryan, Willian and Sanchez being close but for the players preferring other clubs but if that's the case, keep the money, there are other big players who will become available and we will be able to offer most for them with the money kept adding to the next transfer window. No point spending on more potential.
