Everton

[frank the tank]

big time clown. See him have that argument with the insulate britain fella a few weeks ago.....about concrete being sustainable

[Buzzo]

They've not won in the League since September 25th.

This was always a possibility with him still living on the Wirral.

It is hard to see how it works out well for Rafa though. The very first bad spell they have he'll get unbelievable abuse

They will HAVE to get off to a good start. There will be zero bedding in period for him.

I think there's a chance he wins them the league cup or something but the question is will he survive long enough to do it

It's a strange situation as I love the man so I can't help but wish him well there, it's going to be very weird.

Bump.

So he did actually get off to that good start, unfortunately the bad spell came immediately afterwards and the abuse has well and truly started.

This was all very predictable I'm afraid. It'll be over soon. They're a toxic club and he should have stayed well clear.

[ChesterDave]

Looking at their fixtures and honestly would not be surprised if they did not win another game before Christmas

Well on the way to be correct

[Pablo]

I'm still thinking about how poor he was tactically in that game. The formation he played was a disaster and his subs were poor too. I can't work out how he thought that approach would work against us?

I think he's been well and truly left behind as a top class coach, a bit like Mourinho, these days.

It does feel like the game has moved on in recent years, the top managers of 10 years ago do seem to be struggling a bit now.

That said in the case of Benitez maybe we also need to consider the quality of the players he has to work with

With that squad though shouldn't he have been more defensive? There was no way they could go toe-to-toe with us and win. The 4-4-2 was daft, it was never going to work. It went exactly as expected, our fullbacks ripped them apart.

Yeah, i think when McCoist is calling your tactics out in the first 5mins your time is up. Still he's done probably everything he needs to in the game now. More than many can say.

What tactics was he meant to deploy though?! Everton we’re always likely to struggle against us, the form we’re in.

That's not my job

Nah I don't know, make it hard for us to score instead of giving our most dangerous players loads of space to play in?

I was expecting him to be far more defensive to be honest. He's usually a pragmatist that adapts to the opposition.

Very true, but he was at home 4-5-1 or 5-4-1 would have problem gone down a lot worse by the home support.
That said, I do think time has moved on, he,J ose, Ancelotti are starting to look dated these day

Id bet my pocket money that everton never build a stadium at bramley moor dock.
If ever development happens there is will end up being apartments.
