2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

liar?

Yes. About reading certain books I do believe.

 

[Kev50]

Go to the thread on the Liverpool women's hospital . Re read what you wrote there.
To me it was a disgrace and I was not alone in my views .

well you won't mind providing examples of the racism then will you. Please do. I'm waiting.

Did a good job first 6 weeks.
Then the injuries piled up and we sunk like a stone.

I'll judge him when or if he gets cash to spend and time to bed players in AND when the injured are back.

From the evidence of his managing when we had a full compliment of players he is easily good enough for this club.

Now, feel free to misinterpret / misrepresent all that...

I just want a yes or a no.

Is he still doing a good job so far?

 

[roy vernon]

no way. Benitez specifically said how he courted Gray for over a year.

Yes and it’s not like Benitez tells lies to promote himself is it? I suppose he was tapping him up to join him in China.

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

it's based upon the fact he's a top manager, as his record indicates. Which tells me that once we get Mina and DCL back we will be fine. What we absolutely must not do is listen to people who were screaming for his head when we were top 4. They should not be listened to under any circumstances. they have no objectivity, they are just mindless loons that will plunge the club into disaster by insisting upon a change when we all know how risky that would be.

The issue here, Kev is that you are taking past achievements and trying to use them excuse current and recent failings.

Here is the record that needs most consideration at this point.

so, you think he was just lying out his backside.
\again, no way.

If the moderators have an issue let them deal with it. They can also deal with your name calling and insults. I'll leave it to them.

I 'turned on' Ancelotti at the end of the season - so that's a season and a half of evidence built up and judged. And I dont think I ever called for him to be sacked.

As for 6th/7th - that was on the basis of signngs and not anticipating the worst injury crisis in living memory.

I back managers. You and others dont. I concede that you lot are in the majority now - the majority of a fanbase that's forgotten how to give managers time to prove themselves. More's the pity.

You back them u til your turn on them like you did with Koeman, Silva and Allardyce.


Nothing to do with giving them time or money seeing as you wanted Allardyce out 3 months after he signed

 

[kenada_blue]

A win first game, then a draw, then a defeat, then a draw.

What a 'kin magician.

Unbeaten in the league

 

[Ruairi77]

well, youlll have to ask them They seem pretty pleased with his efforts from here.

yea, because he brought them straight back up, they had a whole season of winning in the championship and something to celebrate at the end.
Then he steadied the ship in the PL but didn't do much better than Bruce.
Geordies might be used to relegation but I don't want any part of that.

Wolves fans thought Nuno was great for doing the same. Spurs not so much.

 

[Efcjake]

We were fine when everyone was fit earlier in the season…..

But we didn't play anyone half decent.

Why you would assume form from against the likes of Southampton, Brighton and Norwich will cover the entire season is beyond me.

 

[Kev50]

If the moderators have an issue let them deal with it. They can also deal with your name calling and insults. I'll leave it to them.

you pathetic little fraud. You toss around the vilest allegations, and when asked to back them up, you hedge and 'leave it to the moderators'.

 

[Dixieslaces]

yes indeed. Without those bollocks me uncle would in fact be me auntie.

Indeed, but none of what I've said is bollocks so she's still my auntie

 

[Azza]

What`s the beef with him?

He's the davek of comedy.

I 'turned on' Ancelotti at the end of the season - so that's a season and a half of evidence built up and judged. And I dont think I ever called for him to be sacked.

As for 6th/7th - that was on the basis of signngs and not anticipating the worst injury crisis in living memory.

I back managers. You and others dont. I concede that you lot are in the majority now - the majority of a fanbase that's forgotten how to give managers time to prove themselves. More's the pity.

You never backed Ancelotti or Koeman.

You've not backed Brands from day 0 either.



"The worst injury crisis on living memory"

 

[gazzaa2]

no way. Benitez specifically said how he courted Gray for over a year.

From the dole queue?
