Agreed there, ashley is a horrible, lying scumbag owner. Newcastle would have been such a good opportunity were it not for Ashley and he was the reason that he eventually left. No manager will be a success under him but at Everton, Rafa has a chance of doing something good. They need some work but they also have some very good players. Rafa will already know what he wants to do with these lads and I predict that he’ll start getting more out of same of their top stars, than we’ve seen, at least consistently, before.
The Liverpool dwelling lads on here won’t understand me putting the dislike of Everton aside and hoping that Rafa does great things with them but that is how I am. I backed Rafa to the very end, I only ever said he should go, only after it was clear that it was untenable. H&G were even worse than that clown Ashley.
Anyway, don’t hold my new-found hardcore support of Everton FC against me hahaha!
