2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Efcjake]

Hi @davek

 

[davek]

Not as much as you have enjoyed Benitez destroying our club.

Benitez has been here for 4 months of football. How do you believe he's destroeyd Everton? IT WAS DESTROYED BEFORE HE STEPPED THROUGH THE DOOR.

 

[davek]

He's gone tonight nea

Gonna celebrate tonight

Nope.

 

[JammyP]

Bed. None of this is helping. We need Moshiri and Usmanov for their money. Benitez isn't holding it together. Would not have been my choice. But what damage would another change do?

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

calm yourself, have a little cry, and hope that the adults aren't panicked by the screaming in here.

Hey Kev, have you got any suggested reading material on how we can help people reform their views on Rafael's standing as a manager?

 

[tsubaki]

He should probably be sacked, but we won't get any better under any other manager with this squad. Our situation is very bleak. I've never felt so apathetic about Everton. There's just nothing to cling on to.

I disagree - this isn't a bad squad, but there has been far too much tolerance of senior players having bad games repeatedly and yet keeping their place. Half that side knows they will start the next game, even after this (and after Brentford, Watford and the rest).

More importantly though we've had a sequence of stubborn managers - you could understand Carlo given what he'd done in the game, but seeing Benitez, Koeman, Martinez and Silva try to get themselves fired rather than change course has to have had an affect on those players. If he is sacked, there probably will be a positive reaction though they will need to get the right person in (as well as sort out what Brands is actually meant to do).

We just got utterly bummed at home in a Derby, the first Derby at Goodison ive missed for about 30 years and guess what, im not even arsed, so I thank him for that at least.

Im cured.

 

[Carloblues]

Nope.

Deffo

He's finished, thankfully

 

[Runub]

I don’t know if it has been said before but worst run of results for 22 years. Sack him immediately!!!!!

 

[MACCA75]

How much did we hear about his thorough assessment of the squad. Files on all the players.

Well he must have decided that we could get by without James, Kean, Gylfi and Bernard. A squad that used to be packed with number 10’s now doesn’t have any.

He hasn’t got a clue what he’s doing.

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

"When we get our players back"?

Who exactly? Mina? Not first choice cos he's NEVER fit enough. DCL? Ok, the lad can finish, but he relies so heavily on things we seem incapable of doing right now, because Benitez doesn't have a clue. Who else? Name 'em. Holgate? Siggurdsson? Davies? Gomes? How are things gonna get better with that lot, if he can't get it right with what we already have? We're basically missing a forward, and that's that. How is it going to change after DCL gets back? He's already got practically our best line-up out there, and tonight is what we get. Not to mention Brentford, Watford and all the rest. Benitez needs to go, cos he's a 'kin dinosaur now.

 

[ClausThomsen]

Regardless of whether he goes tonight or not I'm just gutted that Villa beat us to the punch on Stevie G.

 

[Big Sams Undies]

Beyond belief that Kenwright & The Klowns appointed this chump in the first place.

Not been relevant in over a decade, played turgid football for most of that time and happens to be one of the most disliked Liverpool managers in years.

Too far fetched to be believed… Only at the Everton comedy club.

Well take your pick of evidence:

1. The table
2. the form table
3. our biggest defeat to the RS at home for 39 years

Any suffice

 

[kenada_blue]

Biggest home derby defeat in 39 years
RS have won more derbies at Goodison than we have
6th worst defence in the league.
4th game conceding 3 goals or more.
Conceding 10 goals in 4 home games.
