2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Nymzee]

Why do people ask for yes/no answers, there rarely is a simple answer.

When you lose an important player the first thing is to replace him and that usually swallows up a lot of money and possibly weakens the team.
We may find that next summer

What's that got to do with how much money you have to spend? Being given 100m to spend, irrespective of who you lose, is still being given money.

 

[Nymzee]

Did he, or did he not, spend 1.7 million? 20th in net spend in the league
Simple yes or no please

Yes. Who has said no to that?

Simple yes or no please

We are top of the net spend?

YES!

 

[Toffeelover]

Yes they have approached him twice in the last couple of weeks.

Really, thats a bit sly. All credit to him then that he must have said no. and staying with us.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Comes across as a very honourable man.

We have bagged ourselves a good'un here lads

 

[everton1953]

Defo a most honourable gentleman is our Rafael.

 

[matty1878]

i’m presuming the jan window and then on we will give him dollar?

 

[random]

Yes they have approached him twice in the last couple of weeks.

In that case I hope he has informed the Everton chairman so he can complain to the league executive.

It's not the first time a premier league club has offered our current manager a job without the courtesy of asking for permission to do so.

 

[Frenk]

What on earth are you all arguing about?

They don’t know.

 

[nsno-chris]

I'm not spinning anything. I look at net for every manager.

It seems people who don't like Rafael like to look at total spend as a way to bash him. Without looking at the context of things we don't get the truth.

If you spend a billion, you’ve spent a billion. There’s no getting around it spin king

Late in the window, Brands was alerted to the potential availability of Manchester United’s Donny van de Beek through a Dutch intermediary. It is understood Benitez was considerably less keen on bringing in the midfielder.

Instead, most of the major business came through the Everton manager. Andros Townsend and Salmon Rondon were recruited on free transfers. Benitez also asked the recruitment team to do due diligence on Demarai Gray.

This was before the season started and they were still "terrible" buys. Now that they are good the narrative has to change to fit the agenda.
