2021/22 Rafael Benitez

Don't forget this is the man who told Peter Crouch to come deep for the ball rather than get in the box, then got angry when Crouch scored because he was getting in the box. Dont believe me?

Listen to his podcast.

Didn't he once drop Crouch after he'd just scored a hat-trick ?

With our best players available we also won 16/21 points in the first 7 games. After Chelsea, we have a run of very winnable fixtures. I’d expect to see us closer to mid table by that point.

Yeah like Brentford, Wolves, Watford, Crystal Palace...oh, hang on.

I don't get how we can't go there and be front foot.

Just pulled out an emotional win against an Arsenal side, the players have performed once the shackles come off.

Can't we just go to Palace and be positive? I mean, what was the plan, get the ball to Gray and hope for the best?

You starve Richarlison of all support, watch him get increasingly frustrated and reward his pulling the previous game out of the fire by subbing him for Rondon. Don't give him a chance to play alongside him or get some numbers around him, nah, just sub him off and then lie about it.

The reaction of the travelling support would be enough for any sane club to know his time is up. Not us though, because we've changed managers too often we're going to stick with the absolute control freak, dictator with his non-existent preparation and abysmal game management.

Totally agree and he does it because he's a negative delusional stubborn FSW with dinosaur tactics. He is outdated, delusional and stubborn a shocking combination. It's even worse than watching us under Big Sam.

Hes held to different standards and has been consistently

I can only surmise it's because he is an appalling, has-been manager.

I expected us not to roll over and get tickled by Palace. I expected more than 5pts from last 30

Cant confirm. Crouch was a decent footballer as well, but to ask your 6ft7 striker to come short and not get in the box is just ridiculous.

 

[Vedder]

Talking about us having control of the game. We didn’t have control of that game at ANY point.

We have never had control of any game this season..we are a reaction team...not a pro action team...

 

[Eggs]

….a great old manager of mine told me the best managers don’t take off their best players because they win matches even when not playing well. Things like that stick in your mind.

Richarlison off for Rondon will not only isolate the fans, it will further isolate the players. They won’t respect a man who has an agenda linked to his ego.

 

[BlueToff]

That's the point.

They should be this bad..not one bit

I guess you mean 'shouldn't', so in that case I agree!

Who is this guy?

Doesn't surprise me it's all about Benitez

 

[coollino]

Is this actually the real Gazza??!!

I’m curious, where are we picking up 41 points over the remaining 22 games given that we’re just about scrapping 1 ppg at the minute

Easy, just get 1 point more extra per game

 

[Ghost Rider]

Why is the fan base fragmented? It was a stupid, stupid appointment.

Because everyone is turning on each other.

Angry at the board? Better not protest otherwise you are a crap fan.

Want to give the manager time given the crap squad and less than Ronaldo makes in a month to spend, you are wrong.

There will be many blues who want to give him time and plenty who want him gone.

Personally, can't sack a manager that has been given what he has. You can't not sack a manager who can't get results in a tailspin for more than one out of 10. We are worse off either way you look at it, lose lose.

If we sack benitez going into the Jan window then we will get relegated , this club has proven to not know what players to sign. Go in with benitez and we have a fighting chance, or we are already down.

Pick your poison
