It’s almost like people don’t want stuff to change. I just have missed the last 7 years when we were good. Next we’ll have people moaning when Benitez punts Davies out the door.
The football operation, every aspect of it, has been terrible for years, but people are so preoccupied with their hatred of Benitez that they’re now defending Brands.
I defended him as well for a long time, I thought he was shackled by FFP and unlucky with injuries, but the injuries kept coming season after season and he kept compounding previous recruitment errors. Hopefully whoever is in charge of recruitment will be strong enough not to give Michael Keane a new contract and not keep rolling Coleman’s deal over every year because he can’t get a right back.
