BBC Sport - Danny Mills: 'Rafael Benitez 'almost perfect' replacement

[Donald Twain]

Rafael in.

Good , tell him to bring the wine list please .

They should be sacked when they spout crap like this, it is so outrageous, Brenda 'pumpkin head' Rodgers are they serious? Robbie Savage is the worse I think he just sits in a dark room and decides what is the most stupid thing I could say that will get everyone's attention. There are that many ex players chasing easy cash someone with power in the media should sack one of them and state it is for pathetic comments and that would make all the others think before they speak.

I actually wouldn't object to Rafael. I can see why a lot of folks would though. Personally I think it'd be funny to see how he handled the inevitable questions about being in charge of a "small club"

Another pundit who wrecks my head

Apart from his Koppite connection, Benitez has just got a side relegated that, in theory at least, should have been good enough to stay up. He had time to 'work his magic' at Newcastle but I'm awfully glad they've gone down!

 

[magicjuan]

So, we employ another manager of a recently relegated team?

That seems to work doesn't it......

Norfolk enchants

 

[Abertonian]

To be expected, RS media will start worrying that with money we could get someone decent in. Rafael is perfect for them because they think he'd be some sort of double agent.

I give Danny Mills's musing on the game the same level of attention as that humongous conked whopper on soccer Saturday.

Jenas?! Haha how is he a pundit. The man achieved the square root of nothing on the football pitch.

Ratcliffe: We need a proven manager this time - but Mourinho doesn’t fit the bill

In his opinion.


Also ex RS putting forward ex RS managers.

Joke.

I voted no, I think he needs to explain why Benitez is an almost perfect fit for Everton. Apart from the fact that he lives locally Mills hasn't really fleshed out his argument. On his reckoning I should be a surgeon as I live near a hospital.

 

[JammyP]

Amost perfect...

 

[flibbyflob]

If we wanted a fat Spanish waiter we would have kept Bobby and given him loads of pies over the summer.

Having Benitez manage Everton is too big a price to pay just to see him embarrassed, club should come out with a statement saying we aren't interested in Benitez, we are looking for a "big manager" not a large one.
