[QUOTE="RoyalBlueStuey, post: 117256"] Squad rotation? Okay...................simple question. Did he pick that team at Craven Cottage to increase his chances against Fulham or to increase his chances against Milan. Also going to back to the Chelsea game in 98 : Were Chelsea naive not to rest players against Bolton because he had a European tie coming up the way Raffa did against Portsmouth? Two simple questions. No need to get all arrogant and start calling me small minded and retarded 'cause I think the game should still have a bit of integrity. You can pontificate about chips on shoulders all you want but basically your mindset has the league as an inconvenient afterthought 'cause your manager only cares about the European games. You can sit down there and milk the midweek glory but I'm guessing you aren't paying £35 a throw plus travel expenses at the weekend to go and see a bunch af foreign no-marks make ***s of themselves. The facts are Raffa's second string is a bunch of dickheads...in the bread and butter of the Premier League, those inconvenient games he has to play at weekend, people's clubs are getting shafted 'cause of his squad selections. As Warnock said...what goes around comes around. As to the Howard situation we wanted to sign him, they wouldn't do the deal 'cause they'd then have to face him in a crunch at Goodison. We agreed to keep the original clause in place...so basically the net result was the same. Them's the breaks. [/QUOTE]
