Seriously did anyone really think Rafa was going to come here? I was stood next to him at the Pizza Hut and said "are you going to Napoli or what?" he said "what" so I assumed he was coming to Stoke. as you do.

Looking that way (hopefully) - I'd be happy with either but would prefer Martinez. Really don't want Hughes or MON.

Strikes me this Napoli chairman likes jumping the gun I'm still not convinced. When was that pic taken and why no official picture. I think he's calling Rafas bluff and the media are picking up on what he's said. Why would Rafa not be there for an official pic. There's something fishy going on. I'm not saying he's going to Stoke but didn't Rafa say he was taking a few days in London with his family.

Hang on a min. Has he been sorting all this out from the Moat House then? I smell a rat.

I'm just not convinced by this guy atNapoli why nothing on Rafas site or Chelseas. He's trying to put pressure on him I tell you. Let's not forget he's got form. Why no details on the contract.

That's really disappointing I thought the board would move heaven and earth to get him. ITK my arse.

Curiouser and curiouser. All joking apart it seems odd, the Napoli guy has done this before, and sites are being careful to reference him as saying it. Probably right this time but fishy.

He was never in our frame (a wish list for some) and thankfully we do not have to listen to his dull interviews.

Well it's been entertaining on here with all these dreamers thinking Rafa would come to Stoke. He wants to win stuff; particularly European stuff. So Stoke was never on.
No problem though we can now focus on real potential candidates.
Like for example Mourinho, still not confirmed at Chelski. So we must be in with a shout. Surely?

What I'm saying is everything that's been announced has been announced by the Chairman. Where's Rafas quotes? I'm not saying its not going to happen its just all a bit strange. Nothing on Rafas site.
