2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Colonel Getafe]

Embarrassing that even the benitez fanboys are only 'hoping' for a win vs the mighty Norwich. 'If' we win. Surely the should have confidence in their man and it should be 'when' we win.

gotta keep those goalposts moving (although tbf, moving goalposts might be the only way we don't concede first come to think of it.....) ?

 

[Colonel Getafe]

Anyone expecting us to sweep these aside just hasn’t been paying attention. Today is the reckoning for this manager.

It's Norwich. 2 wins/14 defeats from 20. I'm not saying we'll 'sweep' them aside (probably concede first, probably make harder work of it than needs be) but we could have Farhad in goal, Bill center mid, and Denise upfront and I'd still fancy us for 3 points.

Rafael must be dancing a merry jig he's facing this lot and not City today.

They’ll be thinking exactly the same about us. This is one of their banker fixtures if they are going to have any chance of staying up.

Starts Rondon again. Is he having a laugh?????

Here wo go again a 10 man team.

 

[LostLegend]

So he’s actually dropped the 3 at the back nonsense, but counters it by starting Rondon?

You keep believing in fairytales I'll stay in the real world where Moshiri isn't sacking Benitez anytime soon.

it’s you believing in fairy tales. lose this benitez and all his worshippers im afraid to say the fairy tale will be over

After he gets sacked, least he could secure a job for being a body double for Rik Waller

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

Well, I could be wrong. The glorious New Labour years were Tony's work. But the rapid decline? Well, that would be the work of Gordon Benitez.

A decade of Tory rule to follow +

I.e. Graham 'Cameron' Potter

We've never had it so good! ?

I'm sure they are, but would any Norwich player get in our side? I'm sure quite a few of ours would get into theirs. Excluding Rondon & Iwobi.

Ready to be HAPPY if we beat them, unlike some

I’ll be delighted if we win, hardly a feather in Benitez’ cap is it though? Norwich are one of the worst sides I’ve ever seen in the top division.

 

[Caolam]

Apart from the fact that Rondon is as much use as a back pocket in a cap what tactics are we going to employ playing two centre forwards, are we going to sit back and throw in long ball after long ball. I only see Rondon trying to occupy the space where we need DCL, are only hope is Rondon is too slow to be able to get forward and block DCL‘s path to goal.

I'll be very happy to win. And I fully expect us to.

 

[d34noj]

Hahaha people are moaning BEFORE we kick off, win this one and they will look foolish, this thread will be great tonight

And if we lose it?

 

[4737carlin]

And if we lose it?

All hell will brake lose

 

[d34noj]

All hell will brake lose

And so it should.
