Surely that's the last straw. They are in dire straits.
Rafa Benitez | Sacked (Fachts)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
wont be there long now.
Really doing his best to get a statue outside Anfield.
Spanish James Corden fires us to relegation. cnut.
Last league win was September..against,Norwich !
When do Everton go to Anfield this season, would get standing ovation walking to the dugout.
I doubt he'll make it that far if they don't go there until March/April.
I’ve never felt sad or scared about relegation in all my life supporting Everton, but now I really do. I feel like posting every five minutes about how sad I am about it. Christ.
Did you think you were going that season Royle kept you up? My mate is a Chelsea fan and even he hates Benitez. Thinks he’s a charlatan
Too negative.
I was born in 93 so I don’t remember much of the 90s, if anything.
I am shocked at just how badly he has done there. He seems to have pissed off the players as well as selling one of their best ones.
He needs to go now because he isn’t going to get them back onside and they have way more quality than the likes of Watford and Newcastle.
Their chairman seems to like the big name, so who knows who they will target next.
I think Big Dunc until the end of the season and then keeping tabs on Rooney would be the way to go.

Benitez and Mourinho were two of the worlds best in the 00s. Now both are outdated footballing dinosaurs who are damaging the clubs they manage further and further with each game they’re there.
Booooo
Board meeting tonight apparently. Seeya fatso.
How have the fans reacted to Digne going? Can't imagine it's gone down too well. Even more so if they end up sacking Benitez. Ended up alienating and selling one of their better players for nothing.
Big Dunc to the rescue again?
I have been following Everton's games, since Rafa went there, and Digne's performances were poor and he was being regularly criticised, along with some of the other senior players. He was particularly bad against Liverpool.
It's just that he was also one of the fan favourites, and Benitez's past meant that when the fall out happened, most of the Blues understandably sided with Digne.
Rafa probably has been given the task to make radical changes in the squad. Get most of the big earners out. But to do that he needed results.
They haven't been good throughout the season, and managed to get results in the beginning because of 10-15 minutes bursts in their games, when they would get few goals.
However, after the Watford game everything has gone downhill. It's down to the manner of that defeat, when players simply gave up. And they have continued with that attitude ever since, barring that one game against Arsenal, for which the Gunners were to be blamed. Injuries haven't helped.
Rafa's defensive tactics and questionable team selections at times haven't helped either. Like playing five at the back against Brighton.
What a disaster of an appointment, he had an okay-ish base of players and just transformed it to nothingness. He's going to get sacked and you'll wake up with Digne gone and Richarlison looking for a way out 
Rooney to save the day?

Crap manager being shown up as being a crap manager.
The ridiculous amount of over the top praise he got in the press and from Newcastle fans for the job he did their will never not be truly bizarre.

Agent Rafa
As if it was going to end any other way

Surely that's him done at a PL level now?
Remember when him and Jose were the bright young things?
Everyone declines eventually. Jose had his period where he was the best. Rafa had his period where he was one of the best. They both have impressive CV's and great trophies on their records. More just something to make you feel old than anything else
Who knew appointing a Liverpool hero at Everton would be a bad move?
Let alone one well past his peak?
Would have been comedy if Gerrard could have put the final kick in next week though.

He’s done as a serious manager.
Would have been more of a Liverpool legend if he had gotten Everton relegated. They should hire Rúben Amorim if they stay up next season
Would love to see Rooney manage in P.L. Give him the job Everton.
Why in the feck would Amorim want to manage Everton when he's still learning in the CL with Sporting?
There's no doubt he will go there eventually but I don't think he will leave Derby now unless the administrators basically force him to go
Was fed up arguing with Liverpool fans who said Benitez would have been a much better appointment than Arteta for Arsenal. Wouldn't have touched him with a barge pole.
His cv will improve a lot if he does well at a club like Everton. Plus, he will get more recognition and definitely higher salary. I know this might hurt some people feelings, but coaching at Everton is more lucrative than coaching at Sporting despite sporting being in the Champions league and Everton might never be in the champion league. It will be a good foundation for his young career.
Dinosaur. Terrible appointment.
Why have they sold Digne only to sack Benitez days later?
Doing well with Everton means getting 7th place, nobody cares about that, it won't get you a job at a top team. Winning trophies in Portugal might though.
He'll be Watford manager at some point
Farleys Agent rafa videos are brilliant.
