hi there..as an observer of English soccer, rotationing system brings more harmful effects rather than positive effects. it causes the playing momentum to drop and break the chain of partnership and telepathic understanding between players.players need to play regularly, if possible on weekly basis without any interruption with regards to system for them to develop their understanding of the games and maintain their motivation and fulfilling their egoism factor.



my advice is that, for fringe players, the gaffer can make them play in low key competitions on regular basis until they are ready to be promoted into the senior team.



occasionally, give them the chance to play in the BPL games together with first team players.



look at chelsea under ranieri.havoc and disharmony.top players need to feed their ego.ego encourages top motivation. top motivation spurs the player to do more and impress the club and supporters.



motivated players get the result.



in simple word, mmm..yes, his is living on borrowed time.



anfield supporters are suffering.

First, we had the easiest draws? What! Have you seen Arsenal's groups over the years. Give me a break. Second, they were complete garbage today, and Rafa's rotation policy is super frustrating. Sebastian Leto has no business playing with the top club. Where's Babel or Alonso or Voronin from the start? Having said that, we're not gonna find anyone better to manage at this point. He has to stick with some type of regular lineup and give it a chance to gel. I think that if they earn no hardware this year, they have to look at replacing Rafa. How great would it be to get Roy Keane and stick it to Man U! Dare I suggest it.

Shocking perfomance,goodness knows why he picked some of the players...ALMOST AS IF HE DIDNT WANT THEM TO WIN! A great shame...an embarrassing performance from a truly great club.I would thnk he is safe at the moment but who knows if they carry on like this.Team ? What team?Too many rotations = no team...this was a bad one as several poor performances e.g Sissoko and Leto let them down badly.Watch your back Benitez ...........................

Sack him after one match, or because of his rotation policy? that's a bit of a over reaction ain't it? and who will you replace him with ? all the good managers are employed. I don't think he's up to the job sometimes especially tonight when he starts the match with Hypia on the field who has reached his sell by date, but he's won you a CL final and reached another CL final.. not a bad record.

Numbered for sure with this downward trend.....but there's still time if he gets out of his stubborn rotation system and do some serious thinking. Liverpool still not as bad as that Grant what of Chelsea?!

Rotation, rotation, rotation. Twisting and turning, screwing his team into the ground. Against Marseille Rafa's merry-go-round left his players stumbling about the pitch in drunken stupor. Couldn't coordinate one fluid move..... rotation, rotation, rotation.... just how do you build teamwork?
