It is though thats the thing

Remind me again, when was the last time we lost 5-2 at home to Watford?
I'll settle for lost at home to them.

Off you go...

We play Liverpool in a couple of weeks.

Just saying like.

It’s about 6 weeks isn’t it?

 

[matty1878]

God imagine if he waves at thier fans

he would be snipered.

Comical reading the stuff here from the celebrants after a 5-2 loss.

Even more funny is that they believe there's any chance of Benitez not being our manager for the next 3 years.

There's no changes coming about in management. None.

8th in the league and the manager has spent less than £2M and been handed an unprecedented injury crisis.

God imagine if he waves at thier fans

Or better still

I think your perspective is Benitez did things differently than he has the rest of the season. For me he didn't. So I don't think you can be mad at him for today and supportive of the rest.

Today he was completely different to the rest of the season fella?!

From the start his tactics were wrong which they haven't been for many of the previous games.

The only thing the same is him persisting with bloody Rondon.

2 games in a row he’s refused to add a third body to midfield even if it’s Holgate. 2 game in a row we’ve been run right through and lost all the second balls.

 

[davek]

context? we’ve been bummed dave by a side who’s crapper than us.

FW picked a wrong team, wrong formation,

and clearly didn’t work on what to do

Didn't I just say it was unacceptable?

I know Matthew.
We ain't got no chance of improving with a kopite in charge either Matthew.

Yeah I disagree with that. Thought it was largely similar. Which might be the problem but that's a longer post.

This guy Benitez is terrible. Most of the success this year has been against sub par teams. Wait until Everton starts playing against the tougher teams. Last year was a better squad. Siguerson and James were around. They provided a lot. Can’t believe this guy let James go. You have to bring high caliber players to the team if you want to be successful. Getting players that hustle is good but there is no replacement for actual talent. You can’t will yourself to the top 5 of the table. You have to have talent and a manager with a brain

You said bottom half was acceptable earlier.
Can't have it both ways Davide
