2021/22 Rafael Benitez

What happened when we played against Potterball?

Potterball?
Oh ffs. You've turned into that other nob.

You're talking about brighton and Everton here. The size of the clubs isnt even a comparison. It shouldnt even be a comparison.
Lets see when we play liverpool next month if we sh!t ourselves before a balls even kicked. If our manager doesnt pray for a point. And set up for a plucky point.
Unlike potter who didnt give a fck they were playing them on their own ground last week.
Thats not a 1 off with him either.
Good coach. It just kills some to admit it. Fck knows why.

are you talking about the same Brighton we played off the park last month on their own patch?

One game doesnt sway me in the slightest. Why would it?
Im talking about years of coaching at this club. Why would 90 mins change that view. Are you even serious.

if you're complaining about the chap who's just got here, and comparing him unfavourably with somebody else who we've just played off the park I think that does present a slight chink in your argument.

 

[4737carlin]

That's your choice. Most will get behind him though.

Most are behind him, those who are not are in a minority, a loud minority i will admit

What happened when we played " klopp ball" last season

Yet he's clearly a better manager than current Ancelotti

1 game means zero

I dont even know wtf you're talking about.
It doesnt change a thing. Everton need a far better strategy long term and a bit vision as right now there is none. Its jump from 1 name to another because they are a bit of a "name"
Its been a complete disaster and i dont see anything that different in benitez over the next two years.
It will be back to the drawing board in 18/24 months having got nowhere.

so your solution is to jump to the latest flavour of the month after two months? I'm not sure that gets us to a better strategy, particularly as Potter aint coming here (why would he)

oops awks!!!

That the game Benny dismantled Brighton at their own place? lol

I dont mind Potter but his fanboy club rave about him like he's had them qualifying for Europe on a shoestring budget like Moist did here.

Brighton spend a fair whack and he's done very little other than have them playing easy on the eye football.

Who says he's flavour of the month, you?
His team took a lot of credits last season for their football.
The point is Everton go from 1 dinosaur to another.
There isnt anything wrong in suggesting they may look at a younger coach with fresher ideas and give him time here.

Answer the question about hughton and potter having the bulk of the same players and the difference in football.
You skipped the question. Funny that.

yes, he's the latest in along line. it was Bielsa last year, Wilder the year before. I'm perplexed that you complain about us jumping from manager to manager, and your solution is to jump to the latest on the hit parade. We tried the 'fresh ideas' with Silva. Had to be bailed out, didnt end well. You need an experienced hand to take over this shtshow. Potter was saying only a couple of months ago how hurtful the negative comments from the brighton fans was, Imagine him coping with the levels here.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

He's here for 3 seasons. Let's get behind him.

Depends on points, can see him gone before derby if results and form are negative. Be dangerous to have him at Goodison at that match in that scenario.

 

[chippy1722]

Take away the Liverpool connection with Benitez, and look at our last few managers. I don’t believe Martinez, Koeman and Silva had any right to be our manager, I don’t think they had done anything previously to justify coming here. Benitez and Ancelotti had the credentials to justify their appointment.
For that reason I don’t see how the board will afford him less leeway than the likes of Silva.
Unless the majority of the fans really kick up a fuss, and start marches and banners ( so called kopite behaviour) then he won’t be gone anytime soon.

He's the only manager in history to lose a game after the final whistle had blown.

He finished 16th last season and he's currently only won 1 in his last 6 despite Brighton having the 9th biggest net spend in recent years in the league.

Again im not saying he's a bad manager im saying he's over rated.
