2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[trueblue84]

He's practicing spelling his name properly with a plate of Alphabites

He keeps having to open another pack because he eats them all before he gets to 'G'.

Would rather have Rooney or Lampard in the dugout than Benitez atm tbh

Think I'd rather have Chemical Ali in the dugout than Benitez rn. Surely he couldn't do more damage than Bennyboy?!

I think;

Sack him tomorrow - we finish midtable.
Keep him until the end of the season - we finish midtable.

The concern for me is someone who I figured would be interim/under a Director of Football could be given the opportunity to try a rebuild in the summer

Sack him tomorrow, the atmosphere around the club immediately improves, the feel good factor gets us a few wins and we can start preparing for life after Benitez.

With the atmosphere amongst the fans and the bad will he is engendering amongst a large proportion of his players, added to his stubbornness and tactical ineptitude, if we don't sack him, we may well yet find ourselves dragged into a fight for survival. If that happens, do you really have faith in this team to slug it out with Burnley and the barcodes?

Thank jehova he's not named El Whazi. Would you wanna be the one to tell Rafael he could just turn the 'M's upside down instead........

Yup. I look forward to more hard-hitting journalism and tough questions like "so Rafael, are you pleased to have added a signing?" and "are you hoping for a win at the weekend?" etc etc.

(Legit hope he throws a wobbly though and goes on a bizarre rant about Gary Abblett or someone) ?

"Why aren't you playing Richarlison?"

"I tell the team that the fans expect them to honour their club. As manager of the club I ask all the players kiss my feet, but some refuse...ok, but I am a professional. I say we are in a good moment, we have strengthened with new additions - Nathan, Vitaly and we can see improvement. Rondon will start tomorrow"

He wouldn’t have got that far mate, he’d have eaten the lot, then the plate and then the table.

When the ball is in the air, in the box, it’s like a hand grande has been lobbed in.

Often the funniest things are the triest words.

I can literally hear him saying this?

A proper plan now there's an idea other than the stadium I don't see us having any proper plan or vision

Certainly not one that creates a footballing identity. That's what I believed Brands was here to do, but I also believe he wasn't allowed to do so due to interference from others.

Bringing players in who are desperate to make a mark won’t make any difference mate it the tactics are prehistoric.

Various tactics can work if executed well. Football has its fashions, they want be Fergie, Pep, Wenger, Jose.
Getting it right, whatever the style is most important I think. Anyway we will see. Livened things up!
