Benitez: The team's problems are not solved in just 5 months, and the fans know that

Live Bar December 16, 2016 Previously, at a press conference, Everton coach Benitez talked about the latest situation of the team. He said fans know the team's problems can't be solved in just 5 months.

Benitez said: "This morning I had a conversation with the owner of the club, Mr. Mosili, and met with the chairman and CEO of the team, and they all gave me support. They've been through the changing of managers, they've been through the effort to adapt to something new, but it didn't work. What has it been like for any Everton fan over the past few years: success or frustration? You know the answer. ”

"There are a lot of fans who are saying the same thing to me, they know that the team's problems are not solved in just 5 months. When I talk to the club executives, we're talking about what we want to do for the future, not just the present. We're thinking about January, but not just January, we'll see what we can do to make the team stronger. ”

Asked if his job was solid, Benitez replied: "Yes, my idea is that after working here for more than three years, you still need to work hard, one game can get us into the top 10. We had about 16 players in our squad all season last year, which meant a lot of players couldn't play and a lot of them were prone to injuries. ”

"Players miss 30 to 40 percent of games due to injury, Lewin played 85 percent last season, but now he's only playing 18 percent. RichardIson competed in the Copa America and the Olympics, and now he's injured because he may be overloaded. If you have a squad of 25 players, most players will probably make more appearances than they expected because we don't have too many people available. ”

"We're trying to address these problems in the past and we know we can improve, but sometimes you can't stop things like Townsend's fracture, Davis' knee injury or Dukuere's metatarsal injury. When players are overloaded, like Richardson, you need to solve this problem. We're going to try to promote the team in January and hopefully we can do a good job. ”
