2021/22 Rafael Benitez

[ForeverBlue92]

He is doing miracles and everyone but our own fan base is noticing. We are getting media exposure because of it.

3rd in the league boys. Trust in this guy. He is actually putting his heart in this, unlike the last bunch of changers who just wanted coin

And sadly that just makes the fanbase as a whole look like bad teds.

I mean imagine if he finishes in europe and fans still are against him - I said weeks ago and stand by it the once proud fanbase of Everton Football Club has turned into Geordies these past few months - complete with bedsheets.

We are where we should be. No doubt the team responds to a home crowd, snarl and all.
Played well away all last season and better at Trafford in my opinion.
Do expect to be near champions league certainly in a European finish, slow clap if its that conferance nonsense.

Lets hope Ole is still manager come the Goodison tie as Benitez will have them hammered with DCL, Richarlison & Coleman in the side.

They got lucky with a point today.

Don't care who comes, they're in for a real tough afternoon/night.

I would have taken a draw before the game but on reflection they were there for the taking. Rondon basically had us playing with 10 men and hthe manager got the subs wrong. Let's hope we don't regret the dropped points at the end of the season.

No team with that many excellent players is 'there for the taking' as you well know. Considering our injury list it was a superb, well managed game. We even had to do without our answer to Ronaldo, Alex Iwobi and we still got a point.

Imagine thinking Doucoure was just a noble sideways passing defensive player, Raf knew.

 

[LeeCarsley]

didn't want him here but by God he's delivering. if he keeps it up he's well on his way to the entire fanbase backing him.

 

[Rob17896]

You can tell that this job means something to him, you really can.

I’ve not felt that since David Moyes.

Better still it seems to mean something to the players. You are spot on, it feels already like the spirit we had in Moyes better times.

No it doesn't make the fanbase look bad, it was a fan base with trepidation, and that was understandable.

Logged out for a hour, hows the hope we get beat crowd doing ?

They're beat.

 

[Narntwinnysivven]

Must have been a massive culture shock these players going into training and being made to run instead of having a few pints and going through the Kuoni brochures. Amazing what professionalism gets you

 

[Goat]

I didnt jump on his back after defeats and im not gonna suck him off after wins.

I find it very easy to forget hes our manager and just enjoy the football.

That said, I did say the squad wasnt as bad as others told me it was, but to get results whilst missing 2 of our best players and 6 other first-teamers out is quite the feat.

Onwards and upwards Everton Football Club.

And big up ya man Marcel Brands for his astute signings in the summer.

 

[thorney33]

Some serious egg on faces in here.

Same posters bemoaning his lack of worthiness of the position ignoring that we’d been failing under the likes of the Real Madrid boss, the Barca boss, Belgium boss etc.

He’s the manager we need because he suits us, and his shrewd signings suit us more than the huge signings we’ve thrown money at the last 5 seasons or so.

To quote the missus - this just fits.

Loved the way they all waded into the 'fracas'. We have let other teams bully us in the past!

7% of them tbf... that scream really loud online.

Don't have me to do a new poll fellas. I'll demote you from 7% so quick it'll make your head spin.

No, we had enough chances to win that. These are the type of dropped points from last season that saw fall from CL places at the end of the season. The manager simply can't afford to do this if he wants to improve upon Ancelotti.
