2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

No manager could succeed with this lot. It’s amazing some think Potter could get them playing. They’re completely brain dead with zero football intelligence or technique.

I'd quite like to get Bobby Martinez back in with this lot for a giggle.

Can't wait for January when we might sign a couple of decent players. Meantime let the Rafael haters wallow in their joy and self satisfaction.

Did you see us last season? Majority of our goals 2nd half of the season where set pieces or hoof balls to DCL / Richarlison then holding on for dear life to keep it 1-0.

You never seen Gray or Doucoure marauding through the middle.

Why do you think Doucoure was shackled so much?

Ancelotti had to play dinosaur / Alladyce football because this squad aint good enough and they wont be good enough whoever is in the dug out when DCL, Doucoure and Mina are out the side as thats our entire spine and what replaces them has less spine than a jellyfish.

Because he had an injury crisis in the 2nd half of the season. Or is that only an excuse for benitez?

Not really surprised we didn't see gray marauding through the middle though.

And doucoure missed 7 games on the bounce om the bounce in the 2nd half of last season.

But this is the problem isn't it?

WHO do these players believe in?

Wasn't Koeman
Wasn't Silva
Wasn't Ancelotti
Apparently isnt Benitez

Who then?

We gonna employ every manager in the world and bankrupt the club in the hope that these lazy dossers actually put some effort in consistently?

Its a rotten squad that needs ripping up - I back Benitez or whoever else was in the dugout to get rid of most of them over the next 12-18 months and bring in players with the right mentality.

With what? Magic beans?

Rafael won't make the Derby at this rate.

Marcel doesn't work January.

Starting to lose momentum again now. I fear our shot of getting back in this has passed.

Davies is not good enough mate.

Never said he was.

Hence my comment about making a point to the board / being desperate because the other two aren't exactly amazeballs either are they?

Do keep up my dear boy.

If you're still defending Benitez at this point then its because you care more about being right then the club itself. This is utterly indefensible.

 

[nsno-chris]

A failed experiment for a failed top end manager.

He’s an utter waste man

I don't think people hate Rafael. More what he represents which is this bunch of horrors.

Endless telegraphed cross after endless telegraphed cross, teams know what we are about, no plan b or any variance.

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Sure sign of being in deep sh1t when the “hope he’s making a point to the board” comes out. Some true undeserving dross wearing our shirt out there tonight.

In one.

Tongue in cheek of course, they're crap but he's got no real choice has he?

Davies being the alternative.

 

[coollino]

Oh god

Making a point with two months to go to the window.

There's literally no one else to pick.
Making a point is playing Onyango.

Bit of luck - thankfully.
