2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Wat Tyler]

There's some sad people in this thread.

We just won away to a Championship team in the cup.

Doesn't happen that often to this club.

Rejoice. This is a good thing. ?

Is this a Plymouth message board, is that what we aspire to now?

 

[Milkman]

Yes we were awful then, but as far as I can see no one is claiming we weren’t?

I'm sorry, I don't quite understand the Benitez out lot still. Is there another manager out there that you think can make us play good football and win games with our current playing squad?

 

[mikel_88]

Just dont get his tatics like the wingbacks who dont even get foward to put crosses on. Again at points in the game midfield was over run, again set pieces we have problems. Yes we won but this game does not keep him safe

There might be a manager out there that won’t do any worse but also the entire fanbase doesn’t hate with a searing passion.

 

[Toffeepot]

I didnt expect anything else.

Hull had nothing to lose. They were bound to raise their game. That will be the best they have played all year.

We also had nothing to lose because we usually get knocked out at some point anyway. but regardless, Hull playing better doesn't that justify how bad we were? If you knew Hull would raise their game, why didn't our manager or the team know that and do likewise?

 

[Milkman]

Is that his masterplan? A team of 11 players scoring from 40-yards? That's some sound reliable football.

Yep, that's exactly what I meant by that ?

You're a brave soul to watch a Benitez interview mate, I just can't watch the bellend. I nearly broke my neck reaching for the remote to turn over when they said they were about to interview him.

I thought the drink would numb the senses, should have drunk more.

 

[Nymzee]

Yep, that's exactly what I meant by that ?

I thought as much. You do talk a lot of wham.

That's my worry. There are easier ways of doing it than we are. It's the same bloody problems that keep cropping up too

 

[NathDogg]

Quite right too:

punish your enemies and reward your friends.

That's everything youve been slagging the club off for and all that is wrong with us - it's sad it see but your nothing but a parody, and your blind devotion to this kopite fraud is sickening.

We had everything to lose. That’s why we were the main match on BBC. Fortunately we didn’t stick to their script.

 

[Connor]

Has to go really

 

[Toffeepot]

As far as I can tell, the only thing @davek aspires Everton to be is fodder for Liverpool's 'real' rivals to thwart their league challenge by losing or having the club ripped apart with no sign of progression, only regression. 'Some people...some people, just want to watch the world burn'

 

[ToffeeTim]

Stop hooking Gordon for goodness sake

It ruins our control every time

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Tell you what, Benitez whinges on about “individual errors” as a way of absolving himself of blame…

It’s only because of individual moments that he’s still in a job. When was the last time that we as a team outplayed someone?
