Homepage Article Rafael Benitez Appointed Everton Manager

[AmericasToffee]

Do you think the kopites would let FSG appoint Jose Mourinho?

Like they'd have a choice

What the main things he said in presser

 

[AmericasToffee]

Maybe it's time we stop comparing ourselves to them?

It's really bizarre the obsession with the Reds.

Been gone for a while with alot of work and family stuff going on. Was devastating to see Carlo leave and I would've preferred someone like Galtier.
That being said it is what is at this point so I hope Benetiz does well

Going to be hard when we have just hired one of their heroes pal.

You're going to hear about them every match he manages us.

When's their next ESL fixture pal? They didn't just roll over and accept it.

You've got to live in the same city as them mate.

So, what do we expect from his first season, Europe, a cup, or is it going to be a case of "Look at the players he has to work with" "Judge him when he gets his own players in" blah, blah, blah?

Depends on signings. He has a better squad to work with than Ancelotti in season 1. With 3 or 4 additions we can definitely be looking at top 8.

No offence mate but I think you have to be a local to totally understand

Being an outsider in all this but i think Rafael is a really good manager and will do well for your mob , he knows the game and as managed some big clubs

Mostly badly.

Like any other manager, Rafael will be judged as Everton manager on the results.

November 30th is the first test.

…my take;

Do I think he should’ve been considered by the Everton Board for this appointment? Absolutely not.

Do I think he’s a good Manager? Yes.

Do I think he’ll be a good fit for Everton? Yes, I think he’ll be fine.

Am i content Benitez has been appointed? Certainly not.

 

[Tim's tourettes]

As a 43yr old life long blue and local fella I really hope Benitez does well. That said, a little bit of me has lost some passion for the club over this.

 

[Toffeelover]

Felt a bit like paying a visit to a sink seeing him with an Everton scarf round his neck.

 

[davek]

Stubbs before on the radio saying he felt let down as a fan.

FFS, he helped sell Rooney to United.
