Yep. You are spot on. But we still managed to stay in the top division. Benetiz would have seen up relegated. Wouldn't have liked to see where Beneti z would have had us after another 19 games. But I'm not going to quibble about a few points either way. Benetiz was awful. A just awful appointment from the off.
What if Benetiz had lost game 20. Then game 21. Then game 22. And 23. And so on. How would his record have looked then? All conjecture I know. But where was our next win coming from?
And I did state that previous managers were also awful. but this stint from Benetiz just for me seems worse.
The fact that he couldn't bring himself to turn things around. He could have . But he just didn't seem to try. What was that 5 at the back in one match all about. With Coleman playing at LB. That was awful. A school boy with some football knowledge could have sorted that mistake out.
We are not blessed with many top top players. But anyone could have replaced Rondon. Benetiz didnt. And why persist with a two man midfield. And Coleman. We now have two others for that position. And Keane.
Walker...Smith and Moyes had bad runs of forn. Two got booted out. And rightly so. Moyes managed to turn around his terrible start to one season. I still think that Benetiz would have turned nothing around.
All conjecture I know. But we will no doubt be better off without Benetiz.
How could we be any worse.
