Two players Everton fans adored were James Rodriguez and Digne, Rafa got rid of both of them and took away all our creativity in the process
I mean James was hardly playing, he was lazy and on massive wages, fair enough getting rid of him. Getting rid of digne was stupid
@@jakeclough8090 James played a part in 20 goals despite being out for half a season! And lazy? You don't have a show pony do the work of a mule
@@mattthompson3714 In the modern game you can’t have any show ponies who don’t do the mule work, for a club like Everton they need 10 outfield mules or they’ll get overrun in the midfield as he did. And it’s all good James showing up in the games he plays but if he’s only playing in 10 premier league games a season, with the wages he’s on he’s it’s not worth it
In hindsight it looks good that both went. Took massive wages off the books and it helped get Patterson and Mykolenko in January this year. Also, Digne had been pretty ordinary for the last year and a half before he was sold.
Very many Evertonians were not happy with Benitez but were prepared to give him a chance. His appalling results over 3 months was the reason he was sacked, not because he was a former Liverpool FC manager. Tactically he appeared a shadow of his former self at Everton and I don't think he is now up to a PL job.
RB is so full of BS.... He got more people sacked than games won. He's a control freak that is never wrong when things go badly, but takes all the credit if something works.
Spot on, will never forgive him for getting rid of one of our best players (Digne) only for him to get the sack a couple days later. Never disliked someone in football more than the fat spanish waiter
Rafa had no money to spend
Exactly right he told James to leave cause he had a problem with him then he sold Digne cause he spoke up against him. The director of football left suddenly, then he got sacked a week after selling Digne . Your right absolute control freak.
💯
This is just excuses. This man takes zero accountability. Conor Coady a former red, is absolutely loved at Everton. Don’t get me wrong his comments about Everton definitely help but 1 win in 14 games was probably a bigger contributor as to why Evertonians did not think he was good for us. If he had stayed I guarantee you we would be playing Luton Town and Bristol City this year. Absolutely no doubt about that. This just smacks of “I’m not a terrible manager. Please give me the Bournemouth job”
Nobody at Liverpool cares about Conor Coady, he is irrelevent
@@yester9037 That wasn’t my point. Just saying that Conor Coady a former Liverpool player is loved at Everton so his narrative that he stood no chance because he was ex Liverpool is wrong
@@jorgeandrade783 Ik he was good in the reserves but Coady played like 1 game in the Prem for Liverpool. Rafa took Liverpool to 2 CL finals, their legacies at the club are incomparable
Was rafa welcomed to everton the way you’s sucked coadys ringpiece since he joined?
1. False equivalence with Coady: Rafa Benitez is a Liverpool legend while Coady was a youth player unable to make it big at the club. Tell would you take Stevie G as your chairman? 😀
2. You are guaranteeing a future that never happened - Are you Moses? With a spend of 1.7 and a positive net spend (considering the 10 mill sale of James Rodriguez who is now a confirmed Arab league failure) he didn't seem to have done too shabby a job until Calvert Lwwin relapsed, Tarkowski played rugby with Richarlison and Yerry Mina crumbled. In between of course there were the smatterings of beating the likes of Arsenal, getting results against spurs, Manu and so on.
Lampard was allowed much more money on the following transfer window than Rafa ever was. But I suppose you would much prefer pouring vitriol blindly rather than talk facts.
Considering some of the changes he did feel confident to make, i.e digne and James out and Rondon in, can you imagine what these more radical changes he didn't feel he could make would have been?
We had a series of disasterous managers between Moyes and Lampard. Benitez is up there as one of the worst of that bunch. He wanted to play in a style from 20 years ago.
Benitez should have been absolutely nowhere near Everton. The Everton chairman must have had rocks in his head.
Didn't he buy Demari Gray for 1.7 million and Nathan Patterson from Rangers. He still knows a decent player, and a decent bargain.
@@benmckenzie239 how have they got on since he left?
Nope, Everton's recruitment department had already been chasing both. Benitez had very little input on the two (and Mykolenko)
Very rarely does it work out: buying/appointing/hiring a person from a rival club
Always going to be a huge uphill battle from the get go... because *fans* remain loyal throughout
Nothing to do with the fans , the fans and the board backed him ....the only issue is the board waited too long for fear of criticism for being trigger happy
It worked for Sol Campbell. I can't think of too many others.
@@dudebro3250 Figo? He won 2 la ligas and one champions league with Madrid while barca went 3 trophyless seasons in a row after his departure
@@Yky-xh7ej good shout. I was thinking more of the main local rivals. I guess Ashley Cole from Arsenal to Chelsea could be considered.
We've had plenty from Liverpool - Coady was a Red for god's sake & we love him already
Rafa failed because he's an imbecile
Simon is absolutely right here. He has put himself in the picture again out of a sudden maybe he is eyeing the Leicester job. It would be a huge mistake for whichever club that would take a gamble and hire him.
Feel sorry for who ever he manages next
Simon would never make that comment of pedestrian football about Steve Bruce though, would he?
4:13 yes but finishing 10th the following season with next to no backing is still impressive. I’m a Newcastle fan and that’s why I’ll always be fond of him not because he told us everything we already knew about Ashley. He stabilised the club effectively
Simon talks lot of bxxzxxit
Benitez is poison, and should be avoided by all Premier League clubs.
Yep, Rafa is irrelevant now and has been living off what he done at Valencia over two decades ago and his spell at liverpool
@@hms9891 copied comment plus dont know ball
He’s better than most prem managers
Rafa Benitez will also be bigger than that small club
rafa wants the leicester job
Yeah i suppose he is good at managing in the championship
As a newcastle fan i do agree with a lot being said here although we as fans loved Rafa because he was successful to a point with the team he had and he had a deep understanding of what football means to the fans of newcastle and spoke openly about it…. that’s it.
The fact is, and nufc fans can NOT deny it. rafa did no better than Steve Bruce. That is a FACT
@@Stevesmith-xj7xe 100% If Bruce had said the same things as Rafa the fans still would have hated him. Toon fans only loved Rafa because he was a big name and made them feel like a big club.
100% agree and Rafa's comments annoyed me when I heard this. He is a useless manager and has always been overrated
Totally disagree
Overrated certainly not. He’s a very good manager
Hes a good manager.nothing more
Fantastic manager. Gets a really rough ride from the media and he’a accomplished a lot in the game!
@@daedralord1 not he is most definitely not. Hasn’t been for a very long time. Its 2022 not 2002 get with the times Benitez is a dinosaur
Disrespectful saying Rafa isnt good enough for the premier league. His time at Everton was admittedly pretty bad, but at the time the club was badly run, in fact, it still is, regardless of the half decent run they're on. I'm a little bit biased when it comes to Rafa, being a nufc fan, but hes clearly a good manager, and has won everything there is in the game, but talksport, basically the exact same pundits who said Steve Bruce is a good premier league manager, claim hes not good enough. I seem to remember these two saying Eddie Howe wouldn't be a upgrade on Steve Bruce ffs. That kind of stupid talk should get them the sack.
Talksport defended Steve Bruce when he's a League 1 caliber manager.
I love Rafa Benitez the job he did at Newcastle is nothing short of amazing and underrated he gets this bad football tag at Newcastle which is harsh there was alot of fantastic performances that dont get a mention but saying all that I'm a bit disappointed with how he handled the Everton situation it was never going to work he knew what he had to work with and now he's coming out with pretty poor excuses.
Yet Simon will Praise Bruce and Dyce and their teams play a similar type of football of Rafa......that is British Bias at is Best 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lampard's side is pretty awful
I think the players need more criticism for how they "played" during Rafa's tenure. From the Watford collapse onwards, they knew that even if they put in no effort at all, the fans would still blame Rafa because of his status as a former Liverpool manager, so that's what they did.
They're playing better now under Lampard, because they worked out, after a few of the same-old performances they put in under Rafa, that the fans would blame them instead, since they think that, despite what little he's achieved as a manager, that Lampard is a better manager for some reason.
Maybe, but I think the players had enough motivation to not be the ones to send such a big club down to the championship. And I’m sure it’s not that the fans thought Lampard was “better” (although now they might with the way they’re playing) but they knew it would be a difficult task for any manager to right the ship that Rafa led them on. The players realized how dire the situation actually was and knew they had to step up or no longer play in the premier league.
The funny thing is Rafa is still walking around in his Everton training gear 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Don't think you're as funny as you find yourself
Clough went Derby County to Forest and was brilliant though.
Leicester aren't spending enough money at the moment to interest Raffa & Bournemouth I wouldn't think would be an attractive enough a job to him, personally I think he might have an eye on my club, Villa, if Gerrard gets sacked, we have some good players, just not playing well but had a low net spend on transfers this summer meaning theres cash in reserve for January for him to bring in players, as well as investing in our ground - think currently Villa is the most attractive job for him to get his feelers out for just in case our owners decide SG needs to go
He hasn't been a value for a PL club for 15 years. He was woeful at Newcastle and even worse at Everton. He even failed in China ffs
A bit of double standards by Simon. He said it would never work because he managed Liverpool but when Newcastle wanted Bruce out of the door because he was crap and he managed Sunderland. Simon said give him another chance and blamed the Newcastle fans too for his failure. Double standards
Rafa is totally irrelevant now and has been living off what he done at Valencia over twenty years ago, and his good spell at liverpool
He done well at Chelsea in 2013 . Won a cup with Napoli and a decent job at Newcastle. He certainly isn’t a top manager but irrelevant is very harsh
He took over a decent Houllier built side and then they didn't progress. Waiter in disguise as a football manager.
@@colinbignell9413 "Decent Houllier side and they did not progress"?? 😂 Have you ever heard of players like Fernando Torres, Xabi Alonso, Luis Garcia, Javier Mascherano, Pepe Reina?? Clearly not.
Have you ever talked to an average Napoli fan to know the effect of Rafa's recruitments and setting of their backbone on their future success? Clearly not. Go to Google and check who signed Higuain, Callejon, Mertens, Allan, Coulibaly, Fauzi Ghulam, Albiol, and while you are at it check what the contributions of these players were in how Napoli did in the future.
Didn't progress? Are you mad
Won the CL with far less investment than Klopp had got at Liverpool. Trophy count I think he is ahead isn't he, just not a league (where he did not get the chance to spend a quarter of a billion)? And had to contest with the two greatest managers and teams the Prem has seen with SAF and Wenger, with their Utd and Arsenal sides.
Wasn't there a backroom staff(scout/recruitment maybe) member around the time Rafa left with rumours that Rafa had issues with , could be true that maybe the owners didn't allow him to get rid earlier
As a toon fan, I was glad to see the back of him. His football was pedestrian and so boring . loved when he went to Everton cos knew that was good for rest of the premier League
He was lucky to win the 2005 final. Out played for 100 minutes and made a career off the back achieved nothing for 17 years.
Your either forgetting or your too young to remember he won la liga with Valencia on a shoe string budget which is very impressive
@@mcooley95 no it isn't he inheritanced the best midfield in Europe. Played long ball football and used vicente's and claudio Lopez on the break.
Benitez ought Gray for 1.5 million, player of the year,Townshend, and two great fullbacks, but had mass injuries ,Lampard made a complete hash of the rest of the season,Everton treated a man that cost them nothing in the transfer market,appallingly, Everton have wasted 500 million, but Rafael wasted nothing
Far Rafa was out of his depth and made bad decision after bad decision. Marcel brands was our director of football and he is the one who signed those players.
I agree with Laura not a leicester fan but maddison has been in great form for a while now the back end of last season and the start this season aswell yet souhhtgate always goes back to the same old faces like dier and we are supposed to be happy with it seriously its embarrassing really 🤣 you don't need that many defenders anyway but it wouldn't surprise me if he picked twelve defenders for the Qatar world cup he is that negative lets be honest right 🤣
Why is it that when a manager goes to a rival it never works but when a player does it tends to
The worst manager we’ve ever had. Nothing to do with Evertonians not accepting him.
I am a season ticket holder and watched every game with other Evertonians, obviously, and most of us were prepared to give him a chance.
He was corrosive within the club getting rid of the medical department and the director of football and his recruitment department.
On top of that, his tactics were so poor it was easy to spot for opponents and fans… defend deep and kick it long.
Simon completely correct… his team was terrible.
The fans were behind him when he was getting results, but if you consistently lose games you lose your job..Fact
I think people forget what a basket case Everton were when he joined, his signings of Gray and Townsend for no money did save the club. If DCL and Mina had been fit Everton would have finished just below mid table. I totally get Rafa was the wrong appointment but he did do a decent job there, they won their first three games last season. Let's be honest - any club in the bottom three when the WC starts has gotta be interested. Bar Everton!
He was a terrible manager
I saw his interview on sky sports. It was interesting. He is trying to evolve like the game. Yes u could say he failed but he tried
Bournemouth try to play the right way???? OMG i didn't know, lowest shots, lowest Xg and what not?
They are a super defensive side under Gary O Neill.
He was very good at Everton. He just failed to get Everton relgated by a few points . Given another season I sure he would have achieved it.....
I can write a 5000 word essay on Rafa being a bad manager for us but the owner shouldn’t be let off. He should have never approached Rafa.
Has Simon Jordan gone for the Jack Duckworth look with sellotape on his glasses?
To me , there are differences between good and great managers . A good manager can get a team performing to its level . A great one can get it performing beyond . Rafa comes under good . Greats would be Simeone , Guardiola , Ancelotti , Mancini , Rodgers , Mourinho and Conte . You could probably throw in a couple there that I haven't thought of off of the top of my head but you get the point .
I'm sorry to say this , as well , but very few clubs without huge financial backing will ever be able to go from a good manager to a great one without huge outlay unless a manager is in between jobs and needs either a stopgap or a moment to prove from a previous job he hasn't lost any of his appeal as a manager to other potential employers .
The piers morgan on the radio, knows his stuff though, i always tune in.
I think he improves Leicester short term but long term I don’t know
One win in fourteen. Yes let that sink in. Didn’t change one tactic from one day one to last day.
everton fans wanted him to succeed because ultimately they want everton to succeed
No we didn’t… we never wanted him under any circumstances. We wanted him to fail to get him out. The owner completely misread the room
@@bob6383 Some tried to be positive, some was no way in h... Don't say we when it was your personal opinion, you ain't so important that you speak for the whole fanbase. If he had succeeded and brought money into the club many could have lived with him.
@@bob6383 not a true everton fan if you were willing for everton to fail maybe even get relegated just to get a manager sacked....id agree not a single everton fan wanted him in the job but once he was in the hope was for everton to succeed no matter who was in the dugout
No they didnt. Everton fans are the most miserable depressing set of whoppers ever.
Stop talkin your ring.
murphy can't be taken as an honest actor because rafa got rid of him from liverpool when murphy thought he was the big boy at the club and rafa told him he could stay and fight for his place or leave.....murphy left nuff said.
He’s still a good coach, you guys are crazy.
Leicester say hello to your new manager!
Not sure they’re giving Rafa enough credit here. I’m not gonna say he’s not flawed. He definitely pushes the owners too far at times and he doesn’t play the “easy on the eyes” game. But he’s had trophies in Spain and England and not for the clubs with the most financial resources. There’s something to be said for that. He didn’t have a good run for Everton, but he was following up on Ancelotti. That’s a tough act to follow.

Great from Danny👏
Simon and Danny are the best on Talksport✌️🇩🇪🇬🇧
Unless rafa won the PL, got top 4 or even won a trophy it was never gonna work at Everton let's be honest
He did ok at Chelsea...And is a better manager than Graham Potter.
I don't think he will come back to the PL. Any potential job would be a club in crisis, and I don't think he is a firefighter who could save a club from relegation.
Rafael was the Fucking-Man Managing Newcastle United...
Funny how SJ now 'slams' Rafa Benithez, yet last season reckoned that Frank Lampard turning Everton around was only what Benithez would likely have done anyway!!.. Or was that just Jordan's snide anti-Everton bias showing it's head again??..Either way, despite some good points he also makes at times, the man does talk a helluva lot of ABSOLUTE - self-conflicting - TRIPE!!!
Correct opinion from Simon Jordan. And LCFC would find this out for themselves too.
Perfect answer agent Rafa
Carlo Ancelotti could not save Neverton either, and then he went on to win the Champions League in his next job, so.....
At least Anciellotti did well with them, way better than Rafa did
Rafa is a mercenary.
Can see him at West Ham if Moyes doesn't turn them round soon
I've never rated him as a manager .never.
Simon couldn't work out that there was fluff on the edge of his glasses 🤣🤣 kept playing with his hair and fidgeting. I hope you got that fluff off your glasses. I was hoping Jim or Danny would say something. Because they defiantly saw it and Simon knew something was there but thought it was his hair 🤣🤣
Midcastle would love him back ,,
His spot on, he was hated and rejected by everton fans from day one and that affects players.
No he wasn’t the majority of fans fans accepted him. Wasn’t till he didn’t get a single win in 15 games that they turned on him, which any other club would do as well.
"it's a fact"
I am Liverpool fan, and I never rated Rafa. He is a good manager no a great manager. With that said what did he expect
Benitez just take a job at a sports data analyst firm. He most certainly has the personality for it.
Harry Redknapp has entered the chat
He knew what he was walking in to and then has the audacity to say that's the reason it failed. A 5 year old could have worked that out.
Darren Farley is licking his lips.
Was decent at Newcastle tbf
What did he win?

Leicester fans be worried.
Well thats why clubs should punish managers who decide to manage a club and have no plan they should be deducted or fined for not doing a job not fuckin payed off
Rafa sold Mitrovic athe toon.
Benched Shelvey.
His type of football was also boring.
Bullshit Rafa. You got rid of Rodriguez and digne who did so much for the club (especially the latter). You then brought in rondon and El Ghazi who simply aren’t
Premier league quality. Decisions on the pitch were awful also; just sit back and let them attack whilst trying not to concede.
You shouldn’t have accepted the offer in the first place. Not wanted by fans anyway. He is past his premier league days anyway and will get found out at the next job.
Why did no 1 tell Simon he had some fluffy thing hanging off his glasses
And that there's no such word as 'dissentful'.
Well spotted!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He is Steve Bruce 2.0.
Just retire Rafa your past it, young managers deserve a chance instead of digging back up these out of date mercenary managers.
Everton fan here, TBH I look past Rafa and look at Moshiri; just goes to show how a fool and their money are easily parted
he signed Rondon... End of chat
Rafa is politician as well as a manager,I don’t believe football has by passed him, right now one style of football is in vogue, but you can play any way you want as long as you have the personal to achieve it, you get players to fit a system, no system works without players to utilise that way of playing, so yes a great manager, great tactician but also political, which gives chairman’s a huge headache.
Simon is spot on. Rafa is deluded and a pathetic manager now. He should've made that saaus tough to beat as he was supposed to. We would've finished 8th-12th if he did.
Almost as many excuses as Klopp ffs
Will Everton fans ever blame their owners instead of Benitez?
Danny didn’t play under Rafa? Left as he came in
Rafa is a mystery. He did the same when he went to manage Chelsea - he should never have gotten that job, the fans were never going to go for it. He should never have taken the job at Everton either.
He is the one who wanted to sign Solomon Rondon. Possibly the worst striker in the PL.
But somehow Steve Bruce gets a pass
carlisle united for rafa we would take him no bother
Knowing Rafa, he'll manage Man Utd next.
He messed up big time by going to Everton . No excuses. You made your own bed. Shameful .
He says he couldn't make decisions that's 100% a lie he made more crazy decisions than any Everton manager I've seen in 45 years. His first action was to tell our best player on his first day he's not in his plans and he can leave cause he won't be playing then James Rodriguez was gone just like that. Then he fell out with Luca Digne and sold him to Villa and got sacked a week later because we lost 9 in 13 games. Absolutely the biggest ego around and it interferes with his decisions the guy is a dinosaur and is finished as a manager horrible football wherever he goes just like big Sam but at least Sam is honest and says it like it is, doesn't spread bs lies like this loon is doing now. Go retire Rafa you gotta have 30- 40 mill in the bank at least . That big ego won't let him retire that's why he wants to try and prove a point.
Don't you think that was a ploy to reduce the wage bill. Digne and Rodriguez.
I think hes a value at Man City. Fire Pep
His stock is low right now, after he left Newcastle it was high. That's all.
Forest for RB
