The Benitez Thread

[Stats 7,156]

The thing that pisses me of about Benitez is he takes too long to make tactical changes. Not just the game tonight, many others where he takes the final 10-15 mins to realise a player is useless. Another thing is he is so up Torres ass, everything always has to be about him. He can't go a day without mentioning him. First, I believe I can get the best out of Torres, it looked believable but now that is obviously a short fairytale. Then even when Ba arrives, who is at the centre of attention again? That blonde prick Torres, "I believe Ba can help Torres...." just STFU and let him prove it on the pitch. Then other BS we hear from Benitez: "Torres been looking really good on the training ground" ermmm is a training ground a realistic football match? NO. These two suit each other but don't deserve to be anywhere near a club like Chelsea!

Once again - it's the same old story with this absolute fucking delinquent.

Played what was for the most part our strongest team & swept aside inferior opponents over the weekend, as was expected - benefitting fully from benching that frivolous 50 mil fool - which consequently restored false hopes in so many of Rafa's advocates who still refuse to accept the reality of his incompetancy & nonsensical philosophies. Only for him to revert back to his complete insolent arrogant best today.

To be fair, the starting line-up wasn't weak by any means. However, once it was clear that goldilocks hadn't turned up as usual & the goals weren't going to come from anyone else on the pitch either, he should have done something about it since we were trailing due to an unfortunate mistake, despite dominating the vast majority of possession without much threat of conceding again.

So as the second half begins as tentatively as the first with no apparent breakthrough & something obviously needed to sway the game in our favour - what does this acclaimed tactical mastermind do?

Nothing.

Absolutely fuck all nothing - apart from sitting on his fat fucking arse waiting for his ingenius gameplan to kick into action & provide him with all the plaudits for his exceptional managerial prowess, as he so craves.

At least up until he finally realised that his strategy had failed to make any significant impact on the match, in the 70th fucking minute - when he should have made more than one sub & they both should have been on 10-20 minutes prior to that in reality. By the time Lamps & Ba had finally made it onto the pitch, it was obviously far too late to expect any immediate miracles - despite them almost delivering exactly that, only for some ridiculous officiating to deem it all redundant.

Once again it is Rafa's ridiculously oblivious naivety & unwarranted arrogance that has cost us a game we simply should have won.

As usual, he was completely set upon the idea that his superior tactics & team selection would prevail eventually against a smaller club with little offensive threat - but his reluctance to alter his own gameplan when things were evidently not working out on the pitch has left us in a desperately difficult position that is likely to result in yet another opportunity to obtain some silverware being lost in this sea of madness that has engulfed our season.

It's one thing to condemn his past discrepancies & hold his own words against him for the person that he is; clearly some of you feel that is unjustified somehow but I guess that depends on your own history of supporting this club.

But when he is so clearly out of his depth & continues to torment us all with his own inherent plague, I just don't understand how you can possibly continue to support him as if it is somehow going to benefit the club in any way.

Seriously - how the fuck are some of you still not sick of this cunt yet?

Reporting on the radio tonight that Lukaku is being allowed to stay at West Brom for the remainder of the season. Well that makes perfect fucking sense doesn't it??? A young player who has been blinding all season beavering away at a smaller club, while we toil with the has been that is Torres. Fuck sake. Surely Lukaku would be the better option?, Surely?

Haha Crouchie would be the better option mate, hell I'd even take Bendtner.

Trust me, I am long past sick. Rapidly heading towards the "repulsed" mode.

Well obviously my rant wasn't directed at yourself since I agree with pretty much every post you make haha. But to be honest, I imagine that most of us are already well beyond repulsed at this point.

I would be more than happy to drown that fat fuck in a tank of sangria if I had half a chance.

[robdog 2,084]

IMHO this video sums up the knee jerk decision to sack RDM & replace him w/ telly tubby.

For any rafadyce sympathizer out there, please explain to me the superior qualities that FSW has over RDM. I can't see much TBH

lol, nice one. Now there's a thought. Thing is, isn't Sangria too good for the cunt?, I was kinda thinking of the dago version of Lambrusco

[Jase 43,479]

Think this tweet sum up the current situation with Benitez perfectly.

Callum ‏@CFCCallum

Despite results the biggest and most sustained problem with Benitez is that he isn't and will never be Chelsea.

You don't have to have played for the club like Di Matteo to be Chelsea, the day Mourinho signed he was instantly Chelsea.

Second game where we've lost because of his selection, although last night wasn't as painful as the QPR game. Let's be honest, we outplayed a very decent Swansea team and lost due to two uncharacteristic mistakes from a usually dependable player and having Torres up-front. As soon as Ba came on we looked ten times more dangerous.

That suggests we're good enough with the right team to beat most other teams in the Premier League which should hopefully see us make top-four, although it's going to be close. The cups are almost certainly gone though which should undermine his case to stay on past the summer.

At the moment there are no obvious candidates to take his place so I can't see anything changing until June.

It is very obvious squad wise even without Ba, we are the third best team in EPL

Whether anything will actually change, I'm not sure. However it needs to and quickly, the ill feeling is toxic at games now. At games fans do have a moan, but it's rare that there's wholesale booing of players and a Manager.

That's where we're at now, and no team will thrive with this level of ill-feeling. You know my sceptical views of RB abililty. Right now we need someone who'll pull everyone in the same direction, Rafa will never be that man, hell I'd even consider Terry Venables over the bloke right now and until we can get clarity as regards a non-interim manager.

Far from taking pressure off Torres, all this appointment seems to have done is heap a different set of pressures onto him.

Massive fail on the clubs part.

Wouldnt surprise me in the slightest as SSN like their wind ups

[Milan 17,963]

I'm gonna put something positive out there:

How brilliant was that finish from Ba? Magnificent.

It was a striker's finish. Unfortunately, we haven't known what a striker is since Drogba left.

Meaning ...

For mother of god, don't play the blondie again! Ba and one new striker is the answer!

[Hutcho 8,443]

I think we set out ok and without the errors we wouldn't have lost this game... The blame falls on him when he leaves our best chance of scoring on the bench til the 80th min. And the blame also falls on him if he doesn't see Ba as number 1. And Demba better be starting vs stoke.
