Does Rafa Benitez get criticism from Newcastle fans?

Brighton have lost 12 games of 89 over the past 2 seasons King Rafa side have lost 10 in 43. Burnley lost a total of 10 in 92 during their 2 promotion seasons

They go on like they'd be midtable if it wasn't for Rafa the fact is he's doing a bog standard job there yet build him up to be still one of the best around

He started with the best squad in the championship, spent £55m and are stumbling over the line to finish behind Brighton

Made sweeter by the fact that a manager they sacked for not being "famous enough" has shown them how its done.

Seriously though, they look like getting promotion, but with that squad and a top-level manager, they should have walked that league without even trying.

It's f***ing embarrassing the way they go on about him.

He has been shit for the last 6 or 7 years, this one is no different.

All the shit about changing the mentality of the club etc, fuck off, he took them down and is making a f***ing pigs ear of bringing them back up.

Had there been a decent side other than Brighton in that league they would not be second.

Given the manager and resources, their season in the championship should have been akin to Celtic in the SPL. They should have walked it

Honestly, Benitez will promote them and in my opinion that is job well done.

According to transfermarket he spent 55 mln. pounds.
The fat waiter bought only two players for more than 10 mln. pounds - Ritchie and Gayle and guess what, they are Newcastle's best players for the season. His other buys were in the region of 5 mln. pounds - Hanley, Sels, Diame, Clarke, Yedlin, /first four are failures in my opinion/.
His other signings were - Hayden /nothing special, but still not a failure, signed for less then 3 mln. pounds/, Murphy /overpaid for old horse, but he scored several goals for them/, Lazaar /definitely a failure, still remember that their first choice left back is Dumbet:lol:/.
On the other hand he sold players for 85 mln. pounds.
And in my opinion it is a small miracle to gain promotion with these death horses - Lafails, Dumbet, Darlow, Shelvey, Mbemba /I have serious doubts that he is 50 years old/, Gouffran, Mitrovic, Atsu, Anita, Colback:eek:.
Norwich and Villa had better players and squads, but flopped.

"Small miracle" :eek:
 
:lol: A thread about how we don't criticise Benitez and the first few posts are stating we do criticise Benitez.

Honestly, you lot :lol:
 
Just read his worked miracles again on twitter

Brighton had years to build a squad capable of getting out this league. We had 10 weeks. Rafa has worked miracles with this ropey squad.

No mate miracles is Sean Dyche turning a side tipped for relegation to League 1 to a PL club

The Nostradamus of numpties strikes again!

You'll find when he replies in normal Neil mode it'll be short and pretty much straight away, when he replies in his fake internet persona it takes ages as he googles words to try and attempt to make himself look intelligent.

You can't beat a long winded Fish reply with out of context wording. :lol:
