2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[ToffeeTim]

If they dont play what use are they to us?

Maybe you like having a lead swinging face gurner and a man in the treatment room clutching a purse rather than two strikers who...erm...play football.

We don't play football. We hoof it to an appalling centre forward who can't run.

 

[Groucho]

Got a few matches coming up between now and May, and I think all of them are against top 19 sides.

So we were told, though since he’s left (and how he left) I have an increasingly hard time believing that.

Forget that washed up Dutchman's spin. HE was to blame here...him and the other washed up Dutchman Koemageddon.

It was last Monday night.

What about my Sunday Dave?? Or the week before Arsenal, and the week before that, and the week before that, and the week before that

 

[ToffeeTim]

Kopite WUMs. Or Athletic writers

Just read today's article they have up about Benitez. Think I've had my fill. I want facts and reporting, not editorials in support of Benitez.

...because those two arseholes wont get out of the treatment room.

Forgoing two years worth of wedge is not spin; I bet Benitez won’t do that.

I thought Benitez had sorted the injury issues. Who is he going to deflect the blame onto now?

Has he ever taken responsibility for anything going wrong in his time here?

Yeah, poor player playing poor football.

Who'd have thought that could happen?

That's why we need Benitez signing some of their replacements in january.

 

[d34noj]

Because Brands signed absolute tripe.

Because Moshiri signed Benitez.

Strange how that absolute tripe we signed was 2nd in the League this time last year under a different manager isn't it.

*INJURIES/LACK OF INVESTMENT blah blah blah. Excuses excuses. More players this year to choose from, bar the ones he's hounded out of the club or ostracised.

 

[nsno-chris]

Amazing that injured players are now being blamed instead of the dinosaur tactics

lol

You dont believe he's done that do you?

Poor manager can’t motivate players or come up with a formation that isn’t hoof and, well not run because he doesn’t let them go past the half way line.

Has he ever taken responsibility for anything going wrong ever?

He's here; he'll be backed in January; he's staying.

Sorry.
