Homepage Article Rafael Benitez Appointed Everton Manager

To a degree yes.

Though at present he has inherited a side that got 59 points, so I use that as a base. He has not come in mid season to a side in quite acute difficulty.

Which was all dependent on a style of football and management that a lot of people hated.

Squad wise we have not improved to play better or any different to get results IMO.

The problem will be TRYING to play better or easy on the eye with what we have and expect a better tally. Can't have both unless time and investment is made.

I love that you’re now trying to save face because it’s dawned on you that your messiah is leading us to mid table dross at best for the next few years.

you mean cos of yesterday. You can't read much into that. We had more than half a team out. I've actually been encouraged by the signings and style of play so far.

Doesn't seem to me like Benitez is the root of the problem, he's just a symptom. You might want to look more closely at Moshiri and Brands for the reason why we are where we are.

Believe me this is the start, once Southampton walk over us next week it’ll increase tenfold

Careful, there are some Trump levels of delusion on this forum at the moment, this seems too rational.

Where do you think this group of players are capable of finishing?

We will finish in tears, mate.
Proper Bubbling.

Stop this nonsense that we had half a team missing, 9 of that 11 were regular or near regular starters last season, we were only missing our two main forwards

You realise that they would've done that with Ancelotti in charge as well right?

You realise Ancelotti had more backing than Benitez right?

That's an argument for Benitez.

And we've won 4 out of 5 games so far.

He’s not playing for us ever again

Who cares about pre-season results?
