Just read Whelan's view on the state of affairs and the myriad of shite posted over the weekend from the usual, predictable bellends.
What a load of hysterical bollocks.
We've had injuries and illness to deal with, Rafa's even come out and said Agger, Skrtel and Torres are doubts for Wednesday, so how is he 'prioritising' Europe?
And while we're at it, we've had players like Torres playing while half fit out of necessity. We've not been getting the rub of the green in many games either (the beachball, Degen's sending off).
We're not playing particularly brilliant, which can be attributed to the above, how do you find cohesion when you've got injury problems in every game?
Sure, point the finger at the thinness of the squad, point the finger at owners too for their laughable cover up of our spends this Summer. But get behind the team FFS, and the manager for that matter, it's November, exactly what is all the hysteria at Benitez going to achieve at this stage??
What kind of selling ploy do we have to take on a new manager? What can we offer?
Exactly, fuck all. Benitez might be on a hiding to nothing, and he might ultimately deserve to go, but that's for another day. He deserves a fair portion of criticism, but we're in crisis, the kind that no one could have predicted and the last thing we need is fickle supporters stabbing the manager in the back when he and the club need us most. I swear some seem to be basking in the glory of it all.
When you walk through a storm and all that? Are they just hollow words then?
