2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Billy Dean]

But we still had Doucoure, Allan and Gray available to start.

Personally I think rotating Doucoure and Allan is acceptable considering their injury records and ages. We have to get a whole season out of them unless we can sign decent competition/cover in Jan.

Because I've seen it said.

Why can't you stand him as a manager Chris?

Because of how he plays, how he sets up, speaking to my RS mates and being told (long long before he came here) about his negativity in certain games, his arrogance and how he uses the media to belittle every club he’s been at to push his own agenda.

Will that do?

Fine by me. I'm sure they hated that european cup win as well.

I don't like zonal marking. I'm not a fan of him personally, I'm not really fussed either way tbh but I am a supporter and I will back the manager and not have an agenda. You know, like a supporter.

You’re trying to spin everything aren’t you.

And I love this “like a supporter” shout. So you’re saying myself and manager many others who don’t want him here aren’t supporters?? The majority of us I’ve sat through things you’ll never ever have to

Yeah, or the 08-09 season with 80 league goals and defeating real Madrid 5-0 at the pit.
Oh well... It's all been discussed before, nobody's changing his mind...

Is it acceptable to go out of a cup, again, at a straightforward stage?

I’m sure the Utd fans enjoyed winning trophies under Mourinho as well, still didn’t like his footy

Mad that, innit??

I think Europa League is possible this season 5th-7th spots wide open

Spurs / Leeds / Arsenal / Leicester all look shakey

West Ham have Europe and only Antonio up top who is injury prone.

COYB

He's been here 5 minutes. Get behind him. I've been through my fair share of crap with this club myself lad.

No. It should be possible to beat a 2nd tier side with a rotated 11.

Oh so its just his footy you don't like.

No problem there then.
