2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Toffeelover]

Knowing Benitez it's a win against UTD and a turgid draw at villa

I go along with Benitez, take one game at a time.

Getting knifed or shot.

The more creative posters might combine all three. It is quite exciting.

Nil satis...

Villa should be doable. QPR and Norwich very winnable. United hard buy no defeatist attitude is required to get anything.

I hope Benitez's expectations are not dialled in.

Yes, but we shouldn't expect the haul we've seen in the last 4 games and LC.

You think that having your house robbed is worse than having your life threatened ?

I think having your house ACTUALLY ransacked by armed raiders who physically threaten your daughter and steal your valuables, is worse than someone hanging up a badly scrawled sheet outside the wrong house and a police presence around your house for a few days. Yes.

Good job really, his Plan A stank the place out last night.

Isn’t that the point in having a plan B?

Our players cower before opposition fans though.

Yeah I think I read @EFC_FRANCIS's post wrong and he was referring to us playing away in front of X teams home fans.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

You could conversely say the same about our away performances last season with their home fans.

Just mentioned it above mate but 'Yeah I think I read @EFC_FRANCIS's post wrong and he was referring to us playing away in front of X teams home fans.'

We also beat Leeds away last season

Drew at Brighton though, and very much played for the 0-0.

Exactly, so we can't really compare the 2 managers just yet, we started last season free flowing goal scoring and then tailed off, same could happen again, lets wait and see

I'm not going to pass judgement on benitez until the final whistle in the last game of the season. Still way to early to be deciding one way or the other. Promising start but we said that last season.

You should be banned from coming on here for life mate with such a sensible post. lol

 

[The binman chronicles]

Southall said the same thing of mk.1 Kendall, he would come off the pitch thinking he had a great game and Howard would say what about this kick that went wayward and so on. Constantly trying to strive to get a pat on the back.

I refuse to fully commit to a manager until their second season isn't a complete disaster. The signs are good with Rafael though. I feel better about how we're getting results than I have under the others even if there are issues. Just no more 3 CBs please.

 

[Kev The Rat]

Not my manager

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Not my manager

Oh no whatever will the club or Benitez do about such a devastating revelation lol

4 point from those 2 games? I'd take it.
