2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Baines' left foot]

Untenable!

 

[Saint Domingo]

Put Richalrison upfront. Gbamin and Allan in the middle. Mina and Holgate at the back until January.

in fact play anyone whose name isn’t Michael Keane or Tom Davies

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

Usmanov has stopped taking the Mosh Man's calls! lol lol

 

[d34noj]

He can only work with what he's got. If we are looking for someone to blame, the buck stops with Brands.

Not a huge Rafael fan by any means, and think his choices were poor today but to have had to start the last 4/5 games with Rondon is criminal.

Had to?

Does someone have a gun to his head?

 

[BigDuncis Blue]

The whole defence is terrible. to see them all blaming each other after each goal went in, says it all. But Benitez also is responsible for his shocking subs and his insistence on playing Rondon

 

[MikeH72]

Yer I think I'm done until January at least. Can't be dealing with that every week.

I'd rather lose my 500 a year then stand gehte stressing losing my voice shouting at that rondon.

Club is a disgrace, Abar 3/4 players in the she team who aren't s disgrace

I both pity and admire you for continuing to spend money on a season ticket. Gave mine up in 2019, best thing I ever did saving myself that money and not helping line the pockets of that scumbag.

 

[Tubey]

I am rapidly falling out of love with this club

I hate Everton. Actually hate them. I hate football. I'm only still here out of a morbid habit, like I was watching wrestling until I couldn't do it anymore.

There's nothing to like or support about Everton and hasn't been in years. The owner is an idiot, the staff are a joke, the players are actually horrible - I genuinely, wholeheartedly hate more Everton players than Liverpool ones, easily.

Had to?

Does someone have a gun to his head?

What is the choice?

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

Todays result is totally on him. He showed all the tactical intelligence of a boiled potato!

 

[LinekersLegs]

Ranieri managed to get his team to show character today after a drubbing last week and succeed despite twice going behind at a ground they had never won at.

Hope our manager can inspire the same spirit in our team on Monday.

 

[d34noj]

What is the choice?

Anyone other than him. He's the idiot that signed him too.

 

[Tony101]

Like Ancelotti did with 1 win in 8 without Doucoure?

People need to wake up - Guardiola could do nothing with Davies in midfield.

Why does he still play for Everton then and get a game. Its the managers choosing to play Davies. I don’t want him sacked because I hate that these terrible players can keep seeing mangers go an still put in the same terrible performances time after time. We need someone here long term with a plan and to get rid of the wasters. That said we can also see what Rondon offers an he has continued to play him so that’s on Benitez.

 

[Firhillfill]

Anyone other than him. He's the idiot that signed him too.

Who is anyone? Thats the point. There is no one and that's on brands.

 

[Papa Shango]

I saw this coming when we limped out the League Cup - I said at the time Benitez needed that competition to survive a rough patch, as there's at least a silver lining as long as we were in it.

He has nothing to fall back on now. He has a nightmare run of fixtures and he'll be going into Christmas almost certainly a dead man walking with the club in severe relegation peril.

I said in the match thread this felt like a relegation six pointer today - I wasn't joking. The stars can so easily align for this to get very, very ugly.

Oh definitely, I get the feeling Moshiri will stick with him regardless too which will make it an even bigger mess.

Don't get me wrong, he SHOULD be getting backed but we didn't have to be Nostradamus to see the potential issues coming.

 

[Nymzee]

I don't want to hear about injuries. They are irrelevant to set pieces, irrelevant to keeping Rondon on whilst taking off the 2 best attackers instead, irrelevant for ignoring being able to bolster the midfield when it was getting overrun.
