Why set up so negative?

At home to Brighton for goodness sake

Will you ever learn Benitez

Close the door on the way out!
Brighton are a decent team - better than us at togger - but they were there to be had at today, definitley.

Benitez is a dinosaur and he's not even a good one. He's like one of the little, useless herbivores that just got gobbled up by a T-Rex.
 

He's a myth of a manager, we're seeing it with our own eyes now beyond all reasonable doubt.

Fluked two cup wins with Liverpool (in both finals they had players put in their career best peformances) but he was brought in to win the league. He got nowhere close to winning that and actually left them further away they'd been under Houllier. In 04-05 they even finished behind us FFS. 7th in his final year. It's just fashionable amongst that lot to blame everything from the latter years on Hicks and Gillett. It was them was it signing crap like Aqualani, Crouch, Morientes, Pennant?

Inter Milan, let's not even touch that one.

Won the EL with Chelsea with a squad that was even stronger than it had been 12 months before when they'd won the CL. Winning the Europa with them was the equivalent of us winning that Florida tournament in the summer.

He failed at Napoli, it's crazy how people try to spin it otherwise. They'd finished 2nd under his predcessor (Matterazzi). The squad he had was capable of being a strong runners' up in the league again and having a good European run. He achieved neither. And even the cup win wasn't anything special, Matterazzi had likewise won them one also. They didn't care a jolt when he left for Real.

His Madrid spell is considered their worst period of the past 40 odd years. First-teamers (Ronaldo included) were demanding his sacking otherwise they'd leave, even under Lopetegui or Solari it never got that toxic.

Newcastle, got shown up by Steve Bruce who achieved the exact same as him (a mid-table finish).

He's not elite and never has been, he's leaned on a few very special talents (Gerrard, Alonso, Cech, Lampard, Hazard, Cavani, Hamsik) to win big games and in doing so make him look good. When he has to build something he's useless and I can't think of one stand out example of a player he's had in the past 15 years who he made tangibly better. He's a money and credit-chasing bumhole of a man, with an ego the size of mainland China. Please get him out of this club and let us forget this ever happened.

How have I?

I've repeatedly said for weeks maybe even months that I couldn't give a toss if he was sacked tomorrow I just dont think he will be.

The fact I backed him at the start of the season like any reasoned Evertonian should doesn't mean I back him 100% week in week out.

Im just not part of the salivating pitchfork brigade who think this squad of players are any good/being held back.

….so you loved Benitez but don’t care if he’s sacked and you love Everton but don’t care if we are relegated.

Mmmm.
