Raphinha

[White Riot]

Shocking miss at the end. Was crap like the rest of the team. No big team is going to be after him if he plays like this every game

Will be consigned to the Woolies bargain bin with Conor Gallagher and Lewis O'Brien

What about Roberts? Can't even fooking dive right

Need to hire Grealish for a day to give him a few lessons in the paddling pool

[CanuckMightyWhite]

All the transfer talks, links to bigger clubs and the national call up got to him.
Hopefully this Spurs him on.

36 years and 7 months old James Milner looks quicker than our midfield did today

But please do not suggest that we buy him

His worst game in a Leeds shirt.

And still won MOTM for us today

Raph was awful today, no doubt about that.

Passing was poor, defensively didn't track the runners and offensively wasteful.

However I wonder how he feels?

Seeing his mate Bruno scoring 3 goals and his mates team making strong moves to progress by bringing in quality 1st team players like Sancho and Varane.

Meanwhile his team brings in 1 player and messes about trying to sign second division midfielders and not much else?

Players talk, players want to see progress and ambition, not just their own but their club also and nobody can argue we have really shown ambition and progress this summer.

If we go backwards this season players like Raph and KP will leave, its that simple.

Players don't waste their careers if they feel a club can't match their ambition so their is a bigger picture imo than just 1 match.

At least that'll put off potential suitors

Once things started go against us he began throwing his hands up and shaking his head. You can’t do that in this league.
He wasn’t doing anywhere enough to be getting annoyed with team mates. He was completely at fault for Fred’s goal. He was closest to Pogba and having chased him back to our box he failed to put a foot in to block a simple cross. It rolled perfectly to Fred for a tap in. He needs his arse kicked for that lack of effort.

Trouble is there is no one remotely close to challenging him in his position currently. At 50% he’s safe in his place in the team.

[The Subhuman]

It's one off day hopefully we move on...

[Muppet the Cat]

It's one off day hopefully we move on...

I think so (hopefully)

[Cjay]

When we needed quality our most talented player provided it.

Players like Raph deserve ambition.

He won't stay past this season if we don't show progress.

[1964white]

How good was Raphinha's strike?

[Irish Ian]

Raph is going to miss joining the Brazil squad due to Brazil being on the red list

[CanuckMightyWhite]

I would be quite disappointed if we don’t progress this season and end up losing Raphinha, despite whatever fee we receive for him with which we could upgrade a couple of positions. He’s in that age bracket where he can and probably needs to be part of our drive into Europe.

Insightful and nice to see him speak so positively about us.

Also gives an insight into why he works so hard on the pitch, he has had a tough life.

And the fact more wasnt made of that disgraceful tackle from Fernandinho still baffles me.

I think he's a really great and humble person. You can clearly see that he's well grounded, appreciates his blessings and values loyalty.

I feel there are similarities between KP and Raphinha, they are both wonderful personalities that can help us on our path to greatness.

It's also obvious that Bielsa has a tremendous positive impact on all of our players and everyone at the club. We'll never see the like of him again.

[White Riot]

I don't understand how that ba***rd Fernandinho got away with criminal assault and Cooper got sent off for a mistimed tackle?
