Rafa Benitez has suggested that his prior allegiance with Liverpool stopped him from being able to make critical changes inside Everton.
The Spaniard shared he had discussions with a key figure inside the club but was met with an evaluation of the side’s current situation that hardly reflected the reality faced.
It remains a managerial move that had both the red and blue halves of the city scratching their heads and one the coach will no doubt regret at least partly.
