How is he being rational?

By painting a false picture that he has walked into a club in total chaos that needs total leveling? Look at the finishing positions for the last 7 years. This is not a team that has been battling relegation nor should it be with the players at its disposal.

Yet the pigman has successfully deceived a certain section with a narrative that justifies him cementing his own place, blaming everyone else around him and that an incredible achievement would be to finish 15th - a position seen only once since the Walter Smith days.

Agreed total falsehood about how poor we were. Any normal run of home result from last season would have us in champions league. Falling away from that position is going backwards.

It's a result business, x10 with Benny in charge when we are losing, won't change!

“I always say that it is a privilege to be trained by professionals like Ancelotti, as it has been now with Benítez. They are very high-level coaches, one of the greatest in history, and they obviously make a difference in our career."

- Richarlison.

Another Kopite.

Oh so the lad is back in the good books again

Pretty sure I saw you demanding he was sold a few days ago

Your boy's favourite Venezuelan, who just today has been promoted as a big success by Rafael's army.

Not my boy. Not particular on him. What I recognise is the managerial musical chairs has not and will not help this club. I am willing to give Benitez a fair crack of the whip then judge. When I say fair I mean have money to spend to bring in his players and not have a restricted market of freebies. I have also said I find it understandable why we are where we are as despite how the ones who do not want to give Benitez a crack, we have had a horrific injury crisis and he has had to use the useless squad he inherited. I recognise adversity and he has had it.
My boy?? Give me strength.
Come on Rafael

No, he isn't. But at least he apologised to his manager and has now praised him.

There's a massive difference between Richarlison and a certain rat about to be punted.

Another corker from Dave “Benitez is no hero of mine” K

That ‘rat’ had been a model professional until our current manager slithered onto the scene.
Bore off Janus.

He's gone.

The lengths some are going to to defend this man is hilarious. Any other manager and I mean anybody, would be under severe pressure after our run of results and quite right too.

I'm struggling to see the end agenda, what are they hoping for, relegation or a last day great escape, neither of which are fun.

Results talk and his are disgraceful and the way we have shipped goals under a defensive pragmatic manager is laughable, the gamer has changed, I hate saying that as it's 11 v 11 but when some teams play football and others don't you tend t chase shadows and that is us this season.

It's the whole Liverpool connection. They think it is all about that and bedsheets, and feel they are on the high road. They grant him powers to do something they believe he can, though he never has, and perhaps we don't need, because they're all effin' high on the high road.
They do all this while ignoring the football

He's in hospital at the minute, be careful with the comments because it doesn't sound to good. Not covid related.

Where's this reported mate?

If true, I wish him a speedy recovery. I don't want him as manager but wish him no ill will.

I'm not seeing anything about him on twitter but been a few comments on here that he is in hospital or not well.
