Homepage Article Rafael Benitez Appointed Everton Manager

[Toffe3m4n]

everton is a poor side, i would bet my house against em if they were to play the colombian league, clearly they wouldnt win it at all... most ppl from england love to think they have the best teams and players.. well youve got money to BRING said players to play for english teams, your standar english player was mediocre at best, having until now recently , some kind of sucess (euro).

having said that.. only a few everton players would be starters in top colombian teams (millonarios is not 1 of those, despite having finish 2nd last tournament) ... once again , everton brings mediocre players , not too far from top colombian teams, as it was clear from the everton vs millos game (with only 2 games played in the colombian league, so the fitness thing dont cover the horrible ball game displayed by everton).

get down from your high horse, be humble. yes theres quality in EPL , but is severely concentrated in what ...5 teams (or those big six), after those... let the devil choose, the suckiness begin to be the norm, and every team is somewhat equal.

Haha, okay mate lol

Apparently he's arranged for a team dinner at his house and before going through the house all players will need to take off their shoes and kiss the red carpet at their feet!

Remember when you wanted City to beat Everton? I do.

Not once have I wanted Everton to get beat, there are ways for him to get sacked without Everton suffering.



The 1994 Cup Winners' Cup proved to be Graham's last trophy at the club; the following February he was sacked after nearly nine years in charge, after it was discovered he had accepted an illegal £425,000 payment from Norwegian agent Rune Hauge following Arsenal's 1992 acquisition of John Jensen and Pål Lydersen, two of Hauge's clients.[4] Graham was eventually banned for a year by the Football Association for his involvement in the scandal, after he admitted he had received an "unsolicited gift" from Hauge.

Yes, so Liverpool wouldn't win the title...that's a bit different from wanting Everton beaten every game to get rid of an Everton manager.

Like a lot of those shouts mate young centre back at Norwich Omobamide, good player keep an eye out for him, young centre half.

I see Aaron Hickey has made the breakthrough at Bolonga.

Abraham would improve our options significantly surprised someone hasn’t snapped him up at 40mill. I like Ings as well.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Counthino on loan late on for AM.

Aarons, not sure the juice is worth the squeeze - would be a big fee - any time I watched him in the PL it was always Godfrey I was left impressed by.

That's good to know. I think we were both onto him at Hearts. Looked a player at 17 and you have to wonder WTF English clubs are doing watching on while talent like that gets snapped up by an Italian club.

That's true to an extent Dave. But wanting our team to lose so that that lot don't win the title makes us seem really insignificant and small time. Its like our primary concern as a football fan is what is going on over there than over here. I don't give a rats a*** whats happening with them lot. If we lose a game and that means they lose the title then it makes losing easier to swallow but as a fan I want the mentality of wanting to win every game regardless of what that leads to rather than being more obsessed with what our results mean to them

LOL

Isnt even top 5, hahahahahaahahhahahahahahahaha.

Its not THAT mad of a shout. Valderrama, Ortiz, Asprilla, Valencia, Rincon, Higuita, Falcao, Cordoba, Yepes etc. He would deffo be in the conversation though.

United fans want City to be denied a title by all means necessary...does that make them and their club small time?

Two footed as well and can play across the middle and the opposite flank at a push.

Probably better for the lad himself that he is playing ball though.

It feels most people hate the manager, hate most of the players, hate the board, the club and most things about it at the moment.

My take on it is we have some really good players despite what people think but we arent a team. If you put our best 11 players man for man against other sides we arent that far off but we need to be organised and play as a unit.

If Benitez can get us organised and our better players to play well consistently we could go well.

He's got a tough job turning the fans around and expectations are about as low as I can remember but normally when expectations are low we tend to do better so who knows.

Reminds me of Hansen.

Just turned 19 still only a pup.

He has guts to tell James that he don't want him but has no brains to tell half of the team who are useless?
Ok, sell him. Buy more donkeys

That's it, if they take time and effort to move on James, while keeping on the useless ones, it's really worrying for our preparations this year! Even if we're going for 4-3-3, it won't always work with Gordon, Richy, Townsend, Gray as the wide attackers. we need James-DCL-Richy together for one more season

in that instance yes.

He'll be better than Robertson and Tierney.

 

[Neiler]

He definitely has the potential. He will get a good defensive schooling in Serie A as well.

Steve Clarke i believe has been keeping in close contact with him, which is unusual for an International manger, he knows his football does Steve Clarke.
