Welcome to Barcelonaton FC
Not one of the media outlets have questioned him. They all think that it's the £500mill spent on garbage is the issue and not the manager.
The spend is the issue in terms of not getting success. It sure as hell not the issue to be a competent side.

I’ve tried but frankly he’s poison . I stand by and I’m ready to change my mind when we win 8 on the Run or when we just aren’t horrific . I Hope we beat Chelsea & then win the next 50 games but evidence suggests he’s wrong for us !
Frankly I hate him being our manager , he’s not just a RS he’s crap as well.

All teams get injuries. Carlo last season at Brighton got a point with a midfield of Holgate and Davies - this was the bench;
Iwobi, Nkonkou, Broadhead, Virginia, John, Tyrer, Price, Welch.
Much worse - he just didn’t cry about it.

He is absolutely trolling us.
Says this about allan:
He was not really bad but he was feeling something - and we cannot take any risk with any player.
Then straight after says this:
"It is the same case for Richarlison, who has a calf [problem] and at half-time we were thinking about making the substitution.
So can't take any risk with any player but takes a risk with richarlison by leaving him on. Also took a risk by getting mina rubber stamped to comeback when he wasn't ready. Then the reports he was pressuring Donachie to sign off DCL as fit when he wasn't.
He is a liar through and through.

That's not the issue though.
This issue is having a manager that can set up his team to look like one and stop conceding from set pieces for one. Baby steps.
The thing is he's tried to do this at every club he's been at. He's always in conflict with the owners because he doesn't get his every whim pandered to. Ashley rarely gave him what he wanted in particular (as bad an owner as he was). And Benitez had the Geordies eating out the palm of his hand because he was at war with the owner they hated.
The difference is Moshiri seems to cater to his every demand. He's never had that before.
I'm not against Rafael but he's being given too much power now.

I just don't want them to fire him and have no plan of what to do next.
I actually think he is benefitting from the fact that half the fanbase didn't want him in the first place. Criticism of him now by fans is taken with a grain of salt and the action is taken elsewhere(Brands)... Objectively speaking this form is relegation and unacceptable but he'll ride it out because 'poor Rafael getting a hard time from ungrateful Toffees just because he managed Liverpool, poor Rafael'
He's awful. Even Sean Dyche has more attacking fullbacks than us! Bottom of the form table with some of the teams in this division is just too much and if Moshiri can't see that then he can stick his Bramley Moore up his.....
I personally couldn't care less about his RS links - they are just the final cherry on top of the cake of reasons why he shouldn't have been given the job.
My main issue is that he's just a really bad manager
Come mate you're better than this answer.
He was & is NEVER ever the right appointment , personalities aside he's been finished for years.
Some may think just cos he got the gig we should go all out & back him....not for me.
Its like being given a retired Blackpool donkey to run in the Grand National.
Plain & simple.....finished & ultimately nowhere near good enough for this club.

I agree. The players when they are up for it tend to do well and get the crowd behind them. They seemingly do it all too rarely though.
Benitez however is just the wrong man for the job and is proving this all too often.

So that excuses chants about his physical appearance and country of origin?
We understand all that, but the minimum we expect, is a coherent game plan, which at least sets the team up to play on the front foot.
Instead what we have is Allardyce style anti football, hoping for a worldee to win the game, players who clearly aren’t buying into it and fans ( Geordies ) on the war path.
This is not a recipe for anything other than disaster.
It would be beneficial for everyone, if the fans at Newcastle turned on Howe and their messiah returned to them.
That way everyone saves face and he could ride off into the sunset of the Championship with his beloved Toon Army, blaming Bruce and Howe.

Look I won’t lie its part of it for me , I could pretend its not , but that’s not the real issue . The real issue is he’s crap and appears to want to ruin the club applauded from the sidelines by various flotsam and jetsam.
