Luis Aragonés is up to it again

By: Ryan | October 12th, 2007

Since we now have a lull in La Liga, it’s time for Luis Aragonés to make a fool out of himself again. This time he isn’t spouting racist remarks, but he is basically giving it to Raúl, hard.

He says.
‘Sabes a cuantos mundiales ha ido Raúl?’
Do you know how many World Cup’s Raul has been to?
‘A Tres’
Three
‘Tu sabes a cuantos Copas de Europa ha ido?’
Do you know how many European Cups he’s been to?’
‘A Dos’
Two’
‘Dime las que hemos ganado?’
Tell me which ones we’ve won?’

And he keeps repeating ‘Dime la que hemos ganado’. It appears as if Luis Aragonés is fed up with all of the Raúl talk lately and wants it left alone.

But really? He went to three World Cups and Two European Cups and we didn’t win. But we also didn’t win with the team that we had there, and with you as the coach Luis! You can’t possibly blame the losses in the World Cup and in the European Cup on Raúl, it’s just not possible.

Does he really think in his right mind that Raúl shouldn’t be playing for the NT? Everyone and their mother is calling for him to be on the roster but Luis still thinks that it is a bad idea. I do have to give him credit though for sticking to his guns, even though it is just a ludicrous decision. He’s a stubborn guy, even though he says in an interview with the REFE ‘No me parece que sea tozudo.’ ‘I don’t think that I’m stubborn’

His ability to turn the Spanish National Team into a three ring circus is shocking. Remember the whole telling Reyes that ‘You are better than that ‘negro’? (translate that at your own liking). Just watch here to see Luis at his finest, having his normal ‘talks’ with the players which normally are sessions where he berates them.

Really, it is time for Luis to go, as I’ve already mentioned here but we won’t see it happen will we? Until someone at the RFEF takes notice and has the cojones to do something, we will be stuck with this guy for a long time.

Maybe this weekend we can change up the formation a bit too instead of playing 4-4-2 always. Hell, throw Raul Tamudo, Luis Garcia and Torres all up front and see what we can do, or even put 5 in the midfield and spice it up a bit. Lets change the tactics just a bit and see how it works.

Unfortunately, I think we will all be buying the domain www.fireluisaragones.com?? Sometime soon. I just checked, the domain is still free.

PS. Check out this picture of ‘el niño’ holy man he looks like he is about 12 years old
Torres looking like a kid
