Homepage Article Rafael Benitez Appointed Everton Manager

[d34noj]

We beat teams who we were scared of, as we played backs to the wall football and scored from set pieces. As soon as we played teams we were"supposed" to beat, we couldn't dictate, and because they worked harder than us we struggled badly.

Ahh ok, so those wins don't count, I get it.

Seeing as the new manager is such a hard worker, with negative tactics - the lesser opponents obviously won't work harder than us this season, therefore even more wins, as well as the wins Ancelotti got us against the teams we were 'scared of'.

I'm definitely expecting silverware now.

The one sure thing this thread establishes is that in no way was this appointment in any way divisive.

Is it yours or Everton’s mate ? Just thought I’d confirm

I started it in West Virginia. It's my primary revenue stream. But they all buy jersey's and I link them to official everton store for thier merch. Organise trips.

Correct, both things are bad. Benitez and Brands out.

I'm in. lol

Yeah I get that and credit to you but they’re everton fans right not in a death supporters club ?

Such an absolutely ridiculous appointment in all aspects.

Talk of managerial influence is moot where Everton is concerned. The squad is slow and unambitious. No manager can get a tune out of our deadbeat squad. I do not know how that Brands bloke still has a job...he is useless

Not defending him ,but it appears he never saw a job description. But in this era of football contract excess he'll never do the right thing.

Are the two not synonymous? It feels that way sometimes.

I didn't say anything about this season, I was talking about last season. There are fans this season and so I wouldn't expect our away results to be as good. Similarly I would expect our home form to be better. As for the wins not counting, if your plan is to let the other team dominate and then score 1 of the very few chances you create, you're on dangerous ground.

Yet it worked against the majority of the teams we were 'scared of'.

It appears to me we were on safer ground doing that rather than trying to play attacking, expansive football as we got turned over ourselves - a lot like how we did to the teams we beat doing so.

We were on safer ground because we're not very good, and one of the slowest teams in the league. However there will be seasons where playing like that loses you most away games. I can remember seasons where we've gone away and set up to be hard to beat and ended up with 2 or 3 away wins all season. If that had happened last season we'd have been relegated.

If my auntie had balls she'd be my uncle.

Top and tails of it is, our away form was champions League placement easily, away form was relegation material.

With this group of players playing defensively, we got enough wins to cling onto the European spots right up until 2 games to go, I'm expecting the same, minimum - no reason at all not to.
