2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Nymzee]

Who's arsed about last season man 38 games behind closed doors last season was a farcical "competition".

I know it must hurt watching us do well after hating on a manager who "insulted" us when you was only about 10 and was wearing a Leeds half n half but he is here and playing well so take it in and enjoy it.

I'm older than you?

We'll never know like but fans at our home games last season could have made a massive difference, you only have to look at the impact of fans up to now this season.

You could conversely say the same about our away performances last season with their home fans.

You don't seem very happy with Everton/Benitez doing well so far. I will wait for our first defeat and see the glee in your posts then......think you are the weirdo here.

I'm happy with our results, I don't like Benitez being the manager, I've been open and honest about that since Day 1.

Over 18 months since I was last at a packed Goodison park, that was boss last night! For 60 minutes I was checking if Ancelotti was in the dug out because we were so poor but then we went into overdrive and then the last half an hour we were superb! Loved it

 

[Nymzee]

The massive difference though is that in two of those games we came from a goal down to win.

How many times over the entire season did we do that under Ancelotti; once?

Also, the squad looks miles fitter, the football is much more entertaining, and no more of this I BS; all about the team this season.

The football has been absolutely grim for large parts of this season already; not sure where you get entertaining from.

And by your reckoning Carlos gave up then bailed after his whereas Benitez has sucked it up and cracked on regardless.

I think it was more that it took his eye off the ball (as it were) and he was happy to escape to Madrid when the offer came. Rafalafel only had to put up with some sheets putting up some sheets outside the wrong house, hardly comparable in any way.

Strange that the biggest Club in the world wanted him back if he was such a terrible manager as you say.
Why were they not in for Rafalafel I wonder? I suppose for the same reason they binned him off after 7 months the first time..

Just wish you would show you are happy with the results so far rather finding negatives with our results

After 4 games last season we were 1st, with a +7 goal difference, scoring goals for fun (more than after 4 games this season), pace and energy across the team, blah blah blah.

Rein it in you weirdo.

12-5 vs 10-4

Not much difference really is it.

Also what happened after those 4 games last season?

Been watching with one eye closed, have you?

Where have I said he was a terrible manager? I've never ever said that. I loved him. He's still my avatar for crying out loud.

Exactly, it's not much difference, not sure you're really understanding the point of my post.

I may as well have for 2/3rds of last night.

All relative, nowhere near as grim as last season.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I like him a lot.

Or you're only reading the posts of mine you want to read. Here's a recent positive post about our results:

Great result. Crowd looked on fire.
