In your opinion. Stories get leaked to press everyday, days or weeks before they're announced. So people get used to the idea. It's basic principle of comms.

In my professional opinion, yes. What you’re talking about - effectively floating an idea to see how it goes down - is common, but clearly hasn’t happened in this case. The press have not been briefed on this by the club, that is incredibly obvious. The stories have come from people close to Benitez, not the club. What the club are doing appears to be akin to treating your partner like crap in the hope that they get the message and finish you so you don’t have to do it yourself, it’s dreadful from a comms point of view.
 
I’m going to go out and say, on the basis of no knowledge whatsoever, that I don’t think it will be Benitez. I’m probably completely wrong, but I hope I’m not.
 

This club is doomed

Only Amanda and gin can save us

They're not floating an idea, they're going to do it - unless something dramatic happens. How do you know club hasn't briefed anyone?

Chelsea fans gave him a hard time etc its bound to happen - the irony is we have had players who became stars Reidy was a red all his family were.....
Johnny Morrissey started on the Liverpool ground staff we pinched him for £10,000 - bill Shankly had a fit as he was on holiday, threatened to resign if they pulled a stunt like that again - Moggsy gave us ten good seasons - no moans about him being a red then....
Sheedy, Beardsley, etc etc every player we signed never let us down...

I know it so hard a former LFC manager - we are maybe clutching straws, but if he fails then he will be sacked like the rest before him .....

This really. Everyone is getting upset because of the ‘small club‘ jibe....but tbh at the time he was probably right. Those of us who have been around long enough know that we were the big club and the RS were the little club, but times changed, they won a load of trophies and we messed about, we had a great time in the 80’s, then one cup, one bleeding cup in years. I’m as proud an Evertonian as any on here and have seen it all, but if the club think Rafael is the man then who the hell are we to disagree. I still think a.n.o. will be lined up, but if it’s Rafael then so be it.....
