Let’s get something straight. This wasn’t just a “ discussion “ about tactics. Words were said, from both player and manager, that created a chasm that was uncrossable. Either the player or the manager had to go…and the manager isn’t going anywhere.
Not yet anyway. Maybe in the summer.
 
I don't see anything wrong in senior players questioning tactics and playing style when it's warranted (and it most certainly is in our current situation!) - Benitez's ego just can't handle it.

Good teams allow discussions, challenge of leadership's decisions and collaboration in all walks of life, busines or whatever.

Having a bunch of cronies and yes men doesn't work in business or football teams - we've got enough of them in the boardroom and look where that's got us.

Think the conversation may have gone like this:

Tony Benitez "I am the manaher, you must do wat I cey and play how I cey for this clooob!"

Lucas Digne "je suis Everton, we should be doing much better than this and playing a different way, your tactics are not working Mon grosse crotte."

Davek Benitez "get out of this clooob, traitor!"
You missed out the stage directions where Benitez is chewing on his frequent continental breakfast of cheese and cold meats, at 3pm in the afternoon.

We know more than anybody that if a player doesn't want to leave then they don't, we have tried to bomb out numerous players and they are still here, decent player but took the first offer he got, great love affair?? Not sure about that, good money for the player to actually turn a profit on him, and probably the best way to raise money without damaging the team to much.

So because he actually wants to play football not sit in the reserves this is a bad thing ?

Tosun isn't staying at Everton because he loves the club. He's staying at Everton because we're the only club dumb enough to pay him what we're paying him.

How you can put Digne in the same bracket as him is beyond me.

How have I put him in the same bracket? But this he has been forced out the club stuff is nonsense, you can go if you want, ok bye, if he really wanted to stay he would of simple as that, really don’t get the obsession with players who have done nothing for Everton, played in really poor teams been part of some of the most embarrassing defeats in memory, but writes a nice note
