Benitez to struggle in January?

According to a recent report from The Guardian, Everton manager Rafa Benitez doesn’t expect to have much money to spend in January.

It’s safe to say things aren’t quite going to plan for Everton so far this season. While they started off well, they’ve trailed off in the last couple of weeks – and one of the primary reasons for that has been the volume of injuries they’ve accumulated.

That isn’t the only thing holding the Toffees back, though, with tactical issues from Benitez being cited by many, but the popular belief is that the January transfer window would serve as a big opportunity for him to do some damage.

Rafa Benitez is best known for his work across the other end of the city and he was always going to be at a disadvantage because of that. The club needs to think differently, and if Benitez can’t spend in January, he could be on borrowed time.
