Benitez has left Dalian

[Pepe]

Used their hatred of Ashley to push his own agenda which they fell for and wrote books about.

The whole thing was mental. They couldn’t see what was right in front of them.

 

[Daks]

f***ing reading that ffs. Embarrassing.

Says he was forced out by Mike Ashley
He had already agreed a bumper payday with the Chinese before the prem season had even ended.
They really are a disgusting breed the mags

When adults prattle on about projects I always think about Homer building his mini Nuclear Power Plant.

 

[KLD]

Take away a cup competition he won in 2005 with Liverpool, then he has been a league failure ever since. Apart from winning the championship with the best squad and then spending a further £55m on it.

I hope he does go back there to be honest. He is finished

Hope he goes back, he’s a busted flush.

He never was all that in his "prime"

Left them 2nd bottom

Ashley's fault for ruining his confidence.

 

[OohBaldyBally]

He’s left his job because covid has affected his “project”

fuck off man.

I’d love to see the scum sack Bruce, appoint Rafa ... and get relegated.

 

[edna]

aw fuck he’s coming back isn’t he after Villa trounce them tonight

Hope so.

• Arrived in March 2016 when they were only 1 point from safety and got them relegated having failed to beat us, Norwich or Villa
• Spent £60 million on Championship level plodders after they got relegated when he had the chance to use the money to build a young, exciting attacking team
• Played horrendous football
• Got knocked out of one of the cups by lower-level opposition in each of his 3 full seasons in charge
• Constantly moaned at how shite his players were

Admittedly did a decent job in the Premier League but nothing more than that, every manager they've had since Keegan would have been a pariah in those circumstances yet their fans have a bizarre cult-like devotion towards him

Had a game in hand too. Aston Villa had already been relegated and had a 16 year old upfront anarl

 

[Mackemed]

12 wins, 8 draws and 18 defeats in China.

A lower win percentage over there than Chris Coleman managed World class

Mint. Make a big song and dance of this if he comes back.

Mags all over Caulkin's tweet already -

What teams need a manager?

Arsenal - has Arteta turned it around?
Chelsea - he got dogs abuse from the fans last time...
Wolves - pressure on Nuno
Mags - obviously
Oh my -

Seems like a nice enough bloke. Poor football manager.

 

[Ale taster]

Ha'way Villa - take them to the cleaners tonight

 

[onegaryrowell]

Won the championship after spending about 80 million

The net spend man

 

[Bradaz1]

He could literally take a shit on the Tyne bridge in a sunderland top shouting fuck the mags, and the jawdee nashun would stand there clapping him as if it's a genius tactic. Ashley must have paid the council to put something in the water that made them blind to how mediocre rafa is and how shit his expensive championship signings were

 

[Helmerroids]

They’re already thinking it means the awabs are rolling into town with their trillions of sportswashing pounds

 

[Tin Soldier]

Hope he goes back and takes them down. Again.

That would be Ashley’s fault

Not that he's done shite over there?

 

[hank williams]

That would be Ashley’s fault

relegates them for a second time then fat Mike sacks him again

[naughtynose]

Be a superb appointment for Celtic

It would tbh.
