Rafael Benítez

Not open for further replies.

I've addressed this line a lot on here. Benitez GpG is better than Di Canio, Allardyce and only nominally worse than Advocaat. But in isolation that doesn't tell the whole story, about what Allardyce inherited, what the 15/16 league was like. But I fear you're underestimating the size of the job Benitez took on.

I think that if money was the only motivator he'd have fucked off to Saudi Arabia, or China, or Russia and swam in his money pile, Scrooge McDuck style.

Benitez certainly did :lol:
 
I look forward to seeing the bedsheets coming back out in December when they're 8th in the league. Of course Rafa already has the perfect excuse in Charnley and Ashley
 
Just seen this on Twitter.....

Stick rafa's face on that Angel of the North NUUUWWWWW #NUFC #RafaBenitez
 
It's amazing how much you know more than a fan whose friends all support Newcastle. I'm always honest if anyone asks me a question about us or our fans, and I'll certainly be amongst the first to criticise or take the piss, but you're wrong


Gutted, marra. On my way to the Tyne Bridge
Keep smiling, it's the only way to get through the season knowing you're in the chumps league.
 
OK then, your fans hounded out MoN after 45 minutes in his first game in charge, that's a fact, backed up by match reports, and people booing at the match. That must be a record. You can put that next to the 1-9 trophy


Yes, some did,but not all. Booing a team off doesn't constitute a hounding out, surely you as a Sunderland cancan understand that, you were nearly booing your side off every home game earlier in the season and last
9-1 trophy. :lol: that's a record, get over it man. Bit like the 6 in a row, it's a FACT
 
103 pages on Benitez?! He's a decent manager but he's got a big task turning them round. Probably the best manager they could hope for as a Championship club.
 
I'm happy with SA and feeling positive about our next season, that's what I care about.

They can do what they want, means little to me bar a good laugh when they make a tit of themselves again.
