2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[Papa Shango]

I honestly can't think of a worse managerial appointment in all of football, not just Everton.

I despise the man

McLeish to Villa from Birmingham was pretty bad. Took their rivals down and was then appointed straight afterwards.

 

[Harryflashman]

If he wasn’t our manager, which he shouldn’t have been, they would’ve brought him in to replace Bruce and he’d probably have took them down again.

Wouldn’t have had enough games or something

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

He's been badly served by his players. Maybe someone else can get a tune out of them.
I rather doubt it.

Fish rot from the head down... Lots can be said about the board and rightly so. But pitch side there are glaring issues that training and coaching from manager should have been long ironed out now.

just not playing Rondon is going to result in a considerable improvement

His final gambit playing Rondon as second striker was some way to go out

 

[blue to the bone]

I find it amusing that when he was been appointed no matter what sources said it Matty would not believe it . But now the same ones are saying he's gone matty is reassuring others that it's true

 

[UltraVires]

I keep expecting to see an announcement but nothing so far official unless I have missed something. It needs to be done quick and give Dunc the game on Saturday. What we don’t need is to rush into an appointment in the next day or two, we can use the international break for a reset if need be

 

[Lob]

Be announced today i think and probably with Ferguson and Baines taking over as a temp caretaker team. Don't really care who takes over temp as it is impossible to do as bad as the Spanish Waiter has done. Even Mike Walker did better than him.

 

[milky]

I haven't slept all night waiting for confirmation that he is gone

 

[navidson]

What an absolute disaster he’s been.

Lost our left back and now it’s absolutely certain we’ll lose Richi in the summer. Say what you like about Brands but Benitez has also ripped up our entire football model.

The most damaging appointment in the history of the club.

He's not even the most damaging appointment this decade - Koeman and Walsh destroyed the club, pissing away the one chance we had to make a dent in the league

To be fair, Mattys favourite colour is apple

Indeed and that will be a sight to behold. He still cannot believe that he was wrong about Benitez getting sacked.

Ferguson and Baines ready to take over until we find the right replacement for RB
