I know he loves managing but this is mental Wonder how much talksport and the likes will condemn this like Bruce’s alleged threats. No doubt say some pish about Rafa calling Everton a small club. All about agendas. I cannot for the life of me understand why Bruce is loved so much and why Rafa seems to be disliked so much in the media Edited June 28, 2021 by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wandy Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 The worst part about this for us NUFC fans is that, despite all of this abuse, Benitez will be great for EFC. And when he has them properly challenging for a top four place, and maybe wins them a trophy, all of this harassment will be conveniently forgotten about...."never happened" etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Everton cutting off their nose to spite their face. Absolutely extraordinary stuff. That man would legit have them challenging for top 4 based on how crap the league is at the minute. Out of interest what has the response from Liverpool fans been to him going to Everton? Haven't seen to much from their end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be hard to overtake any of last season’s top 4, but don’t see why he can’t finish top 2 from Everton, Leicester, Arsenal, Spurs, Villa, Leeds, etc. They were 10th last season but only 6 points off top 6. When you consider we somehow did the double over them, it’s not a massive leap. Edited June 28, 2021 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 This is in a whole other league to what talksport were kicking up a fuss about with Bruce. The "threats" there seemed to amount to a couple people saying they hope he gets covid in twitter. Rafa should call off the move and say it's due to threats made against his family.

BennyBlanco Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Genuinely baffled at why he’d want to take it after all this. He doesn’t deserve it, he doesn’t need it and the Everton lot should be rightly ashamed of themselves for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you think what he did here with pocket money spending, it's hard to see how he won't be up there given some very decent players. Shame though, Everton fans don't deserve it.

Guest Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Everton’s probably the dream job for someone. Normally when you get a non-top 6 job you’re going into a situation where an overhaul is needed, etc. He’s going into a club that’s ran well, had a top class coach before him, and where he’ll get the backing to have a stab at trophies and Champions League football.
