2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[MACCA75]

So this is Moshiri’s interference again?

Is it interference? Rafael has got rid of the director of football and the recruitment department.
Benitez probably had no ideas outside of Patrick Berger and Vladimir Smicer, so Moshiri has decided to do it himself.

well that was the talk the other day yeah, that RB didn't want him

But I thought fat kopite pig was pulling all the strings? Hmmm interesting.

Well exactly, but Moshy gets bored

Not relegate them in the first place? He had 10 games in charge and took over one point from safety with a game in hand.

Loads of time then. The agenda here is daft. He needs to shape the squad, we have had loads of failure and until we go into the new season I will not judge too much because he inherited a mess.
I suspect his ruthless attitude is exactly why he was brought in. God knows it needs razing to the ground and rebuilding. You can't do that in one go though and you can't get relegated.
Looking at some of the Gray and Gordon play though, I see the green shoots. At least Benitez has the balls missing from the team for years.

Which league do you think that we will be in?

Unfortunately, now we are only missing the ability to win games, defend corners, dominate possession, keep clean sheets, play on the front foot, and a few other little things like that...

Correct at the time of going to press.

Same one.

Once we've limped to safety and are inevitably out of the cup, get this fella gone.

If he doesn't get a win on Saturday against Norwich then surely he can't go on. If he fails, with the next game at home against a Villa side including Digne, the Goodison vitriol will be next level.

Just minor little details mate.

But we have someone who has the balls to get rid of the trouble makers.

And by troublemakers, you mean players with the balls to stand up to a manager blatantly ruining the club they love?

A tactically inept, outdated, selfish & stubborn manager without the courage to change his archaic management style to suit the modern game.

He gets rid of players who speak against him not because he 'wants rid of the troublemakers' or because they don't fit his style - he's scared people will listen, see they are right and he'll get the sack... Which he always does, and inevitably will at Everton.

Its a logical thought that he needs a win Saturday, but given what’s been happening, it’s pretty clear he’s the horse Mosh has chosen to back. We’re stuck with him for better or worse I’m afraid.

I hope we sing his name.

Been a good week , got a cup run going, punted deadwood, a nice away win and an addition to the squad will be the icing on the cake

You are 100% on the wind-up.
