2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[PaddyJames]

I didnt say our whole squad was elite tho did I, I literally named a few.

Your words mate

"its rammed full of Elite footballers."

Why is it pathetic or embarrassing? If you think he is not good enough to be Everton manager, then that is your opinion. I think he had his time at Valencia, where he had a Midas touch and was successful at Liverpool to an extent, since then he is living off past glories. Some like him, some don't - not really that big a deal!!

The problem is if you booted Benitez tomorrow who seriously comes in that is good enough to take us where the fanbase want us to be?

There are about 4 genuine world class managers knocking around Europe atm and two of them are Guardiola and Klopp who wouldn't come here. The other two for me are Simeone & Conte.

The tier below is the likes of Tuchel, Benitez and Ancelotti and Carlo did bugger all here and we already have Benitez.

And then I named the 1s I consider Elite.

Anyway, ive noticed that all you want to do is argue with people, across multiple threads, I wonder what your old username was banned for.

So I have reached my limit of fuelling your microaggressions, goodbye.

No, I don't at all. I've never been on here before. You're deflecting because I've just shown you up with your own words.

All the best though, not arguing with you, I'm just disagreeing with some of your points (I usually agree with most of your stuff) sorry that you can't handle that. I don't like Benitez either, I just don't like the cult who are so desperate for him to fail they have deluded themselves. I want us to succeed regardless of who the manager is. He's doing a good job so far.

Tuchel is much closer to Guardiola and Klopp than the others you've named here.

Not to dispute the main point of your post.

 

[PaddyJames]

Im not deflecting, you just want to argue, im not really interested in defending my views with somebody like you.

No I don't. To be fair, I'll save my time for people who understand the game. All the best goat.

Bad luck with injuries as I said. Plus he was 14 points ahead of 12th and 3 points off 6th. Fine margins.

I also think, with hindsight, that Carlo wasn't arsed. Very negative. I think we were an experiment for his son

Interesting that Benitez answered the question of funds this summer by revealing pretty much that he'd expected funds from a sale but when that one looked impossible he had to settle for the low spending.

We will defo be selling a big name either January or next summer.

I took that to be Kean to PSG

Maybe. However, they've shot that fox now and the for sale tag will be on Richarlison next summer.

8 points off CL mate. 3 wins. We had 3rd worst injury record in the league. By far the worst of teams around us bar Liverpool. Stand by what I said.

We have a slightly better squad than last year. If we have better luck with injuries we'll push top 6.

You know your stuff, Fred.

Benitez's press conference comments about James

Spot on mate, it is clear that James is living in the poor fella's head. Everything he talks about revolves around James. He can see history repeating. Brands will need to keep an eye on management as well as recruitment!

Thank you.

Would you mind putting a word in with the missus for me?

He only talks about James when the press continue to ask questions about him.

 

[urquattro]

Fred is 1 of the worst players ive witnessed play the game.

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

I can't think

To be fair mate, I think its a viral situation that his infected certain posters on GOT. I'd suggest plenty of rest, plenty of water and give GOT a miss until you're feeling better.
