    Rafa Marquez or Crapa,as he is known around here,MUST go this summer because:

    1.The front office plan of signing a Mexican player to attract more Mexican/Hispanic fans to RBA is not working because they are still on European teams nuts like no ones business and the Real Madrid game at Yankee stadium will be sold out and full of them

    2.Takes MLS as a joke and makes it look obvious he is not interested in playing

    3.Has gotten suspended 11745309 times and will get suspended another 11745309 times again

    4.Frees up a DP spot

    No one will argue with you about Marquez. No one likes what he has done during his time here and I don't think anyone will defend him.

    I knows before hands when Barcelona let Marquez go with not condition at all, that they was undoing a big problem that they was have in hands and in effect, Crapita has been acting like that, ...Like Crap....

    But the RBNY problem isn't end at that, Backe and Soler if they have not a excuse to sit Rafa they have to play him, and bringing Caprita Cone to the pitch, Backe have to play McCarty out of position and playing McCarty as a CAM, another injustice is committed, Backe have to play Lindpere as a LW and that make him sit Lade too, so, the roster become a mess and like that we will start loosing games more frequently.....

    I'm not sure you'll find a single RB fan who would want to keep him at this point. He provides a few skills that are a rarity in MLS, but there's just too much that he does poorly to consider him a net positive.

    Yeah insanely injury prone, really unprofessional, and underachieving. What a clown he has been.

    I totally agree. When he plays, he looks like he doesn't want to be there. He always has a negative attitude when he's on the pitch. The Red Bulls don't need Rafa for them to win a championship.

    I don't think we've seen a player be so injury prone. He can't play 2 consecutive games.

    Now maybe you can understand why my fight against the signing of old people like Henry and Rafa, they are all time on the DL, both of them hasn't play not 50% of the games playing already....Because they are to old and with more scratches than a 25 years old model Ford....

    Just cause you are older doesn't mean you are injury prone.

    How about a 20 year professional hockey player? Surely they should be broken and never play. Age doesn't matter its the person.

    Hockey and Body Ball (Calling Football); This people remember me of the prehistoric big Armadillos that live 50 million years ago, the way they are protected; in soccer you are necked comparing to a hockey player....

    I think Rafa would do better playing in Mexico. Not sure why he doesn't fold up and head south.

    If we are stuck with him, I'd actually like to see him play in front of Dax with a healthy defense. If he had no defensive responsibilities, his passing accuracy could tear apart defenses and feed Cooper and Henry pretty nicely.

    I will give him credit for his DC game. If he keeps the lucha libre theater to a minimum, focuses on the game and puts in the effort, he'd kill it here. I can't understand why he hasn't figured that out yet...

    Those pads cause injuries because they are used as weapons. How about Bernard Hopkins? He would surely be dead by your standards.

    Playing him at front with McCarty behind could be much better, not the solution but over there he will not interfere with the game and we will have our defense much better served with McCarty as a destroyer..... But really I believe will be something to see.... He is superior skilled than Solli, Lindpere, Ballouchy and any body we have on the team capable to play there as a CAM... Who knows....and beside we don't loose anything and could win a lot trying just that....Because he isn't going any place and to keep him for 18 more month as a Pain in the Ass, will be a reasonable thing to try..... Of course if Conde and Pearce are ready to play and he isn't needed there.... And you know what, maybe that will avoid the need of Henry to come all way down and miss the action at front....

    Any respectable organization would have got rid of Marquez long ago and wouldn't think about keeping a dead beat like him around for another 18 months.

    He have a guarantee contract, he will not resign to a 6.8Millions of Dollars for nothing in this world, so, the only way to get rid of him will be if the RBNY buy him for those 6.8Million and ask him to resign, do you think that the owner of the team will just look and see and congratulate Backe and Soler for they fantastic job?....

    Sell him, trade and pay part of his contract. You do whatever you need to to get rid of a cancer like him.

    I know injuries are an extremely unfortunate and random to any player but I can't help to think that his lack of effort in training(pure speculation on my part), in the game, taking care of his body and his attitude towards the MLS/NY is a big reason for his injuries. I find it amazing how he gets struck with one injury to another.

    I'm sure if this was the world cup he would be training and preparing his body to the max to get ready. He's collecting his Social Security checks here..

    Just tell Backe how you will do it, and I'm sure that he will give to you a couple of 100,000 of Dollars for the favor...Because if he hasn't done this yet, is because he don't know how to do it....Be nice and make him a great favor.....
