Good luck Rafa . We We have beautiful and amazing memories with Iva when he was coaching Liverpool, because we will never forget the Champions League title we won. Best wishes. 🩵💙
@
Rafa is king of the underdogs
@
His way of playing football doesnt work nowadays but he was a huge coup for Liverpool at the time and brought us the CL. Always be a legend
@
Would absolutely love Rafa as new manager,a change would be welcom. Also would take John Mcglyn as a Scottish choice.
@
As an Everton fan I hope Scotland don’t appoint this fraud. He has no man management skills or appetite to make players better. All he cares about is money, especially the pay offs he normally gets after doing a terrible job. Speak to any fan barring Valencia fans abd they will tell you the same. Even most Liverpool fans can’t stand him.

Wouldn't be a bad appointment
@
I think Rafa would be a good choice and the Scottish fan's would welcome someone of Rafa's stature in the game.
@

You could have the best managers in the world take over the Scotland job and it would make no difference at all when you've only got dross to work with.
@
Rafa must be skint
@
Excellent choice. Counter attack would suit Scotland and he will play to the teams strength rather than ask them to try and play a style they don't have the players for. Also a knockout cup expert
@
Or championship imminent & karma 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 can't wait 🎉
@
COMES back to LFc again please bring back SALAH to mane again too.
Trenton etc & 21 titles trophies begins
@
Rafa football philosophy will suit scotland to the bone..strong, defensively compact and counter attacking. Scotland arent among the elites in european football, rafas underdog mentality, tactical astute and getting the best out of players at disposal could help unleash scottish football to the next level.
@
Worst manager in world football history....Scotland can't be that desperate???
@
Unfortunately, he's conservative enough both as a person and in playing style for the SFA
@
1) Spain vs France will be like barcelona vs realmadrid a tactic based team vs stars based team hard to predict.
2) iraola has 2 challenges 1. his dream players who were badly trained fitness wise the last 1 and 1/2 years 2. Isaac wirtz and frimpong are bought for the taste of previous managers he have improve them polish them.
3) alonso on the other hand will have a huge task he will have to build a new team using old and new players he needed a year at leverkuson he might need 2/3 year to make them title challenging.
@
🤣🤣🤣🤣 special agent Rafa 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

No nation without a home grown manager have ever won anything

So true to form Scotland should go ahead and employ him as it will make no difference 🤣🤣🤣
