2021/22 Rafael Benitez

Thanks T
Save me posting exactly the same.

Almost the same. More than willing to change my mind but not ready to go 'full Benitez' yet. Early, early days. Very happy with the win and points so far though. Not complicated really.

Can see us being last on MOTD, new rule is if your last on the PL should dock you a point for ruining the brand with poor football, that would make a few happy.

13 points from 6 games is good for anyone. if you’re fewmin because it wasn’t a free flowing attacking master class then have a night off

Doing ok. Agendas totally do my nut.

I see your fairly new, hello by the way.

You'll find that there's posters on here who'd rather us get relegated than have success with Rafael at the helm.

Not seriously, surely. (New to posting - been registered for years though). Can't believe anyone here would want that. Pardon my naivity if I'm wrong.

Nothing ironic about want la Ev to win mate

The irony is thinking he isn't good enough for Everton yet thinking he can beat United after spending 1.5 million to thier 120 million. They got Ronaldo. Finished second. Not thinking he can but expecting it.

Thats the irony.


..... but i know exactly what's going on. Its not irony its a charade.

I think we’ve learned over the past 4 years that money doesn’t guarantee success, a masterful tactician would get the job done.

I think we’ll win, but I’d be happy with a draw

Against team who’ve lost every game they’ve played

Precisely. So given our habit of shooting ourselves in the hoof against such opposition those three points are to be welcomed.

So you think Benitez is good? At management?

 

[kenada_blue]

Cant fix the problems overnight, same problems that have been there for seasons (lack of possession, defensive and midfield issues) but he's identified the lack of pace and made some astute signings to offer some fire power upfront.

Disguises a lot but it's about time we had midfielders who'll score a d chip in. We've not had that really.

I think he is a boring, negative manager who can nullify most teams.

Regardless, I always expect us to come away with at least a point. i find it bizarre that I have more faith in the team than his loyalist followers who seem to have already written this game off

It’s a real head scratcher

That Burnley side we blitzed 3-1 just took points off Leicester today away from home.

Every game is tough in this league there are little to no bankers.

Amazing how people can't get their tiny little minds around the notion of being pleased with a win but still disliking the manager. He could win every game between now and the day i shuffle off, aint gonna change my opinion of him.

So theoretically by that logic if he won leagues at Everton for 40 seasons in a row. You'd still post insults about him. Not acknowledge him in his prowess as greatest Everton manager of all time. Surpassing Liverpool in cups.... just be happy about Everton success. And disliking him on your death bed till you take your final breath?

Feel free buddy.

Find both sides pathetic.
