2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Marius57]

If we lose vs Brentford he is in trouble.

If we lose vs brentford and haven't picked up points vs City, he could be in the same position Silva was in when we had to get allardyce to "save us" from relegation.

Be interesting to see how his fans react then.

 

[Marius57]

Nope, don't think any of them done/doing a good job. This was only in reference to you:



It doesn't matter that we were 2nd at one point, what matters is we finished 10th and were booted out of all the cups as usual.

I understand people want rid of Benitez for cause he's a kopite, but if you were satisfied with Ancelotti then you have no ground to stand on really - little has changed.

Ancelotti saved us from relegation though. What's benitez done?

Joint 9th mate. As you say, benitez is joint 10th.

Good god

Back to this argument yet again. Not wanting benitez and wanting everton to won are not mutually exclusive.

But neither is ignoring all the reasons why it has been difficult for Raf. I mean, you literally act like he has spent hundreds of millions, inherited an amazing CL winning squad and all his players are fit a raring to go.

Not being funny mate but what do you expect him to achieve after 13 games and £1.7m spent?

As mentioned previously, I'm not a fan of Benitez but I cannot buy the narrative that we were much better under Ancelotti.

But, but, but the injuries

Spent buttons and had loads of injuries. I mean, its 3 months in ffs, what do you think he should have done in this instance?

Yep, all our best players. If you liked Raf, you would be all over this as a genuine reason for dip in form

Injuries. Ancelotti had injuries when the decline started under him. Yet you keep throwing it in how awful we were in the 2nd half of the season and not accepting that. Its hypocritical

I would like to add, I do not particularly like Raf I just think the fools having a go at him, given the circumstances are just fools.

I dont - I cant stand him

As he absolutely should be.

How people would accept us going 1 win in 10 is beyond me.

Remind what injuries he had. I mean, Raf has had every best player in every position and more in a period of weeks, Pickford is the only one who has been free of injuries. What was Carlo injury list? Holgate and Gomes?

 

[Efcjake]

Futile as it is talking to you, I will reserve judgement until the manager has some money to spend, a squad to pick from and no injuries to practically all his best players. Call it groundbreaking if you will, or perhaps common sense.

I call the waiting futile.

He'll be sacked soon.

Exactly
