2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Mr PEN86]

Hearing Digne got a potential injury over the international break. Can we recall players back early from a loan? Would love to see Niels return if it's a long term thing

I suppose it depends whether you have friends who support them or not. I've got a few friends on social media who have came out their shell and are gleefully posting every news piece of their on social media.

Oh wow, whoop De whoop, how sad are you?
And how is Mandy? ?

Quiet today on this thread today, (compared to yesterday). Less blood on the carpet

Am I in the wrong place? Is this thread about Benitez or the utter attention-seeking whopper @Theoneandonly ?

What have you got against carpets?

Heard that if Rafael is to go back to Newcastle, it won't be until the Summer.

You may want to brush up on your camel-punching skills, heard they're a little feistier than horses.

I have been a fan of him since his Valencia day and was ecstatic when Liverpool appointed him. Really heart broken when he was terminated. He would have won the league then if he was properly backed at the time.

I was really disappointed when FSG didn't hire him in 2011-12 when he was available and decided to appoint Dalglish instead. Bad mistakes from their part and it took them quite a while later to get it right with Klopp.

He always know how to make the team play better than the sum of its parts. I do personally rated him as high as Klopp in that regards. I don't think he ever have a chance to really create a team in his vision.

At Liverpool, he was stuck with slow CB (Carragher & Hyypia. Agger was too injury prone to form the partnership with Skrtel, losing Vidic to Man Utd was a big blow looking back) and lack of top class wide attacking player to play to his vision (Daniel Alves, Figo, Simao). His Valencia team, although lacking top class striker, is probably the closest.

He will do a really really job for Everton I am sure of that. It is exactly the environment that he should thrived. I don't think he would want the Newcastle job as he would prefer to build the team from the ground up and that's need stability.

In my opinion, the top 3 (Man City, Liverpool, & Chelsea) are too far ahead of anyone else at the moment but the 4th place is still up for grab. With some luck on your key players and with proper support in January transfer window, I can see your team challenging Man Utd for the 4th place.

You are in good hand so I don't think I need to wish you luck as long as he is still your manager.

Nice to read a reasonably sensible post from someone who appears to be a Red.

It's strange how some of your fans are ok. Then you get ones like @Toff33Blues99 and @Lord Buckethead who tarnish the reputation of sensible reds like yourself.

If you are trying to provoke me by insinuating that I am some sort of a Kopite, please just say it you coward.

I can say with some confidence that we won't be troubling the top 4 this season. If Rafael can get us in the top 7 by the end of the season he has done very well.
