2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[The Sorting Hat]

This was the team Alladyce had at Anfield:

Pickford

Kenny Williams Holgate Martina

Siggurdsson Gana Davies Rooney

DCL Niasse

To get 8th with that side was a miracle - pound for pound done the best job since Moyes in terms of the side he had to work with NEA.

I get your hint

Fat Sam is free at the moment.

And that is what is wrong with this club. The total apathy and lack of vision displayed by the board has over time filtered down into the fan base.

You’re happy with Benitez, you’re happy about Fattys achievements Described above.

Plucky little Everton, know you’re place, glad to finish mid table season after season.

This attitude sickens me

We were 2nd on Boxing Day, breathing down Liverpools neck - 3 points off IIRC

Ah yes. Arsenal and Leeds were 15th and 16th and 12 points behind us that day.

They both finished above us.

Sadly Kenwright never sold us on before FFP was created to keep the ESL clubs dining at the top with the rest of us stuck playing with ourselves in midtable mediocrity.

Any hopes of long term success akin to the 80's is long gone truth be told - this is as good as it gets you may as well accept it for what it is.

 

[Efcjake]

Yet finished 10th with 1 win in 8.

Maybe Benitez finishes this season as strongly as Carlo started his?

When did he finish with 1 win in 8? We won twice in May against West Ham and Wolves, remember when we used to be good enough to beat them? Apparently you don't.

Are you making things up again?

You'll only find out if you drop the #agenda and give the fella a chance when his best players are back from injury.

My opinions aren't going to force Moshiri's hand. We will find out if he's up to it off of the back of the manager's ability, nothing to do with me. So far it doesn't look good at all.

Which team do you think is better, that team, or the one benitez picked against wolves, or Watford?

And who do you think is the better manager, allardyce or benitez?

Still, nice to be up there at xmas and have a little dream. As opposed to this xmas when i think we'll be seeing how watford and burnley are getting on so we dont slip into the bottom 5.
Merry xmas.

It’s a good job Leicester City didn’t hold to that mentality.

If only I knew then what I know now and I wouldn't of complained so loudly about Fat Sam .
Would of still grumbled but at least he knows the importance of set pieces .
Look at what this place has done to me . Thinking of Gravy boobs as the good old days .

Did you have a little dream mate? Hope it wasn’t too crushing to finish tenth after that.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Leicester are an anomaly and are currently below us in the table mate - they'll be back in the midtable pack before long.

Long term success is now based on a clubs revenue to get around the rules - Leicester have won a league title and FA Cup and im pretty sure have revenues less than ours never mind the scab 6.

The summer after they won the title City and Chelsea took Kante and Mahrez off them, same way the ESL vultures ransacked Dortmund, Monaco & Lille after their domestic successes.

Thats your modern top flight football for you these days. Its why I've become numb to it all quite frankly I wont be seeing us win anything in my lifetime.

I'm not accepting it at all . For someone who is supposed to be a solid tactician can't get his team motivated and can't get his team team to even understand the concept of zonal marking at set pieces .
Add this to his historical snideness , I'd say I don't think you should expect any of us to accept the situation . Some kindly souls might do but as a fan of a club with some of the best fans and history , I should be able to expect a bit of professionalism and effort fron this supposed safe pair of hands .

Yeah i did. It was nice. Even arousing.
But the nightmare is back now. Being managed by a kopite floating above relegation.
Jingle bells.

What are you expecting me to do here, jump to the defence of Benitez?

LOL

Don’t know how to answer this - your response makes me feel sad.

In my world It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting
