Or….they’ve interviewed the man, know his plans, ambition and aims & are impressed, if they are sure he’s the one to go for I’d rather they stuck to their guns and went through with it rather than worried about hurting a few negatives fans feelings. Don’t see the issue, if he’s crap he’ll be gone in under a season if not we’re winning games. Some people on here actively want him to lose games so he can be sacked?
We think the board is some democratic process in reality moshiri or usmanov tell them this is happening get on with it , kenwright brands dbb are just happy in there cosy job with no expectations on them
This bit just isn't true, the Chelsea fans still hate him.

Must have been 2007, then.
I’m sure @Theoneandonly can phone Mike Ashley to identify why he told Rafael to play this wayRafael Benitez’s Newcastle generally set up in a 5-4-1 formation for the majority of the 2018/19 season. The formation rarely changed as it suited the squad’s players and disguised their flaws.
This was the shape they sat and defended in with their low block. As they were a very defensive side under Benitez, they were in this shape for the majority of their matches.
Under Rafael, Newcastle were a very defensive-minded side. Benitez has always had a reputation for being a very pragmatic and tactically brilliant coach. At Newcastle, it was no different, his football was not easy on the eye.
Newcastle typically allowed the opposition to build out from the back with minimal pressure.

Yeah we played them for his last game in charge, his reception was still extremely frosty. There also seems to be a bit of a rewrite of history about that season as if he took over Chelsea when they were bottom of the league and miraculously made the CL. They were 3rd when he took over and 3rd when he left, it was hardly roy of the rovers stuff.

Supporters haven’t interviewed him. 95% of those whinging about him will be won over if he delivers, that’s the fickle nature of football. Just don’t get all negativity before he’s even had a training session, alladyce was a far worse choice but don’t remember this level of hatred before he was announced
