2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[banno]

What a disgusting comment! Take a look in the mental health thread, or Karls and some of the struggles good lads and lasses are suffering without the the likes of trying to make their lives that bit more difficult. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Oh for Gods sake behave.

I’ve always tried to give the benefit of the doubt to the manager.
I wanted our club to move forward so I was of the opinion that we are stronger if we stick together. I wanted Rafael to do well.
Today was an eye opener on 2 things
1. He cut his nose off to spite his face by playing Coleman on the left. No balance to the team and it showed after about 2 minutes. No change as the manager is too stubborn.
2. The defence is shambolic. The coaching frankly isn’t good enough. We concede far too easily especially from zonal marking. That’s on the manager and coaches. We can’t sustain this

I think this is a bridge too far now. The end could be soon.

This club really gets me down

We've returned to marco silva in that.
32 goals conceded. We're on course for 60 odds goals against this season if that ratio continues.

Exactly, we are needing a mass root and branch clearance/rebuilding and for the fans and owners to be patient as they were back then.
We won't even win the toss with this lot, I'm not for a minute saying Benitez is the answer but he deserves until the end of the season so we can take stock taking into account the January window.
We can do without bedwetting talk of relegation from you because that is not going to happen by a long stretch.
As for flawed and blinkered it was you that suggested Chris Wilder more than once as our manager, really? Where is the logic behind that one.

In all fairness i'll say what i want. This manager will most certainly, take Everton into the championship, if left in charge for much longer. Chris Wilder would do a much better job than Benitez, you know and i know it.

That doesn't mean, that he's my first choice for the job though. But he'd have the team playing with heart guts and passion imo. None of these things, are happening under the current manager.

Michael Keane will see another manager fired. He’s an utter disgrace.

The thing is, Benitez is building the defence around him. I dont get it.

[stretford blue]

Are they the good points

 

[Nymzee]

Would he survive if we lost to Hull?

 

[Rich1878]

FSW will be sat in front of his fire tonight sipping on Sangria with a smug grin for another job well done. Undercover Boss

Probably scrolling through GOT having a proper chuckle to himself aswell

 

[banno]

….I don’t think it always works like that. With the likes of Koeman I think we still employed him & paid his salary rather than pay up his contract.

That would have to be the case if Everton are to sack him just to give a new man a chance. Whatever way it will be messy

 

[Armaghtoffee]

I can understand people being disappointed and pissed off. That part I get.

The part I dont get is after every defeat the posts rammed with "he's got to go now" and "That's the end for him after that".

How do people think that when we know this owner is 100% behind Benitez and he's allowing him to reconfigure the club behind the scenes and now spend tens of millions of his cash?

I dont get it. It's wasted energy.

If we're not in decent shape by the end of the season I'd say we need to rethink the manager situation. But there'll be no change of manager between now and then, and it'd be highly irresponsible if the manager situation did change. One false move and we really could be looking at spiralling to the bottom of the league.

Keep your heads. New players will be coming in and players like Calvert-Lewin will be back up to speed and we'll get our good results again.

Not getting this at all Dave. You have long labelled Moshiri as a ‘carpet bagger’ and now want us to trust him and the manager who has reaped 6 points out of 36?

Very inconsistent logic.

 

[kithnou]

Would he survive if we lost to Hull?

You'll find out soon enough.

 

[T LEAFE]

Can't even watch his interviews

It's all bollocks that comes out and a total disrespect for supporters

 

[tommytowne]

When silva was being appointed i was posting on here why. I couldnt see what he had done that warranted him the job.
Its not a case of wallowing in stats. Its my own two eyes watching a forward thinking coach's team. I pulled chelsea out. I could have easly just said brighton going to liverpool just before that. Took the game to them. Should have actualy won it.
I want to see Everton do that. Sick to death watching Everton go into games like that and roll over so embarrassingly from virtualy the first minute.
Im not suggesting potter could do that with this lot. But then im not saying give him the job for 5 minutes. Like i say no guarentees but we cant have the attitude of we always get it wrong. He looks the best potential i have seen. His teams impress me. He's at brighton lets not forget. Not barca.

Like you I'm sick to death of watching us fail. Whatever we seem to do turns to cack. Benitez isn't the answer that's for sure. Getting soaked today seeing another failure is soul destroying. I just hope we get it right before it's too late.

 

[banno]

Challenging the likes of Brighton and Brentford! Are you even a blue?

Yes a true blue. Sorry for having a different outlook on things than you.

 

[BlueToff]

We are spiralling to the bottom of the league. 1 win in 12 confirms this.
As for your belief that Mosh is 100% behind the manager, like most things you post, that's just hot air

Tbf to @davek it really isn't.

Moshiri has gone balls deep on Benitez.
