2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[jazzy]

Which premier league club has a teenager starting in the central striking position for them IF everyone is fit?

Same question for the centre back position.

I don't think anyone is suggesting that Simms or Dobbin should start if DCL or Richarlison are fit.

What most are objecting to is Benitez giving game time to Rondon ahead of Simms and Dobbin.

Yeah sure and you belive him?

Gylfi Sigurdsson - 45mil
Davy Klaassen - 25mil
Cenk Tosun - 20mil
Theo Walcott - 20mil
Yannick Bolasie - 26mil
Morgan Schneiderlin - 20mil
Ashley Williams - 13mil
Alex Iwobi - 28mil

Big mistakes.

I mean, we know for a fact that tosun was moshiri and Walcott was allardyce. Iwobi is also moshiri.

Siggy has actually contributed a fair amount of goals and assists and won us quite a lot of points even if he was more expensive than he is worth.

Klaasen was koeman.

Don’t think brands signed a single one of them like

This is what I hate most about the anti-Brands brigade. They don’t even know who we signed under him.

Genuine question, how can you say the last 10 games are not relegation form?

i dont wanna resort to insults and mud slinging as this is what has been created but just how can you justify that statement?

We’ve been in the bottom 3 of the form table since matchday 5

If they are good enough, they play its as simple as that.

Age is irrelevant.

yeah but what about him signing Brett Angell and Newell? Dutch fraud ruined us etc etc

More importantly - only one (Iwobi) was actually signed after Brands arrived.

I just dont get how some of the fans can say it isnt relegation form when the evidence is right there in front of them!!

it defies logic!

I didn't even think about that, it's been a long week ?

What a fraud brands is, couldn't even sign our mistakes.

 

[sageyefc]

Holy moly, only against him because he’s a kopite though right

Rondon played well in the derby though, he then scored against Palace, he had good chances v Brentford as well which show she’s getting in the right positions. I could have bought the argument for playing one of the other two when he was blatantly unfit at the start of the season (although Simms wasn’t fit either then) but people are hanging on about it like it’s the craziest decision ever. It’s a decision most managers would make. They’ll nearly always go with experience over a completely untested kid to start games if they have the chance. It’s not absolutely crazy for our manager to do that especially given Rondon’s previous form in the league before he joined us.

Once again, it’s huge overreaction to small decisions rather than looking at the wider problems at the club.

I suppose he signed Gylfi whilst he was at PSV then!
