You shoudln't be. I have stated that Benitez HAS brought you the worlds most coveted club cup.
Arsene Wenger hasn't won a thing in 5 seasons, and my point was the difference in the the Liverpool supporters and the Arsenal Suppoters, as we have not called for Arsene Wengers head by and large. What don't you understand?
What I was confused about was when you said "I'm saying why should he be...", implying to me that you believed that he should be sacked, which appeared inconsistent with the rest of your views. Thank you for clarifying.
When was the last time that Wenger won one game in eight? When were Arsenal last outside the top 6 in the league? When were Arsenal last reduced to using players of the quality of Voronin?
Wenger is kept on as he is special. He plays fantastic football, spends little money, has built a reasonably deep squad, and you can see it growing match by match. What Wenger is building is visible and clear, and his decisions have a clear, logical end.
If Benitez had the same clear end goal I would have more patience, but he doesn't. I don't know what type of football he wants his team to play, I don't know what he's doing in the transfer market, I don't understand his team selection and substitutions, I don't know why we have no decent reserve players. None of the above is building towards an end. This is the problem that I have with Benitez. If we were languishing in the league and on the verge of going out of the Champions League, but he was clearly on his way to building something special, I would be fine with him being at Liverpool. I thought that he was managing this after last season, but then he alienated and sold our most impressive player of the campaign, tried to refashion the side by pushing the full backs further on, and everything has fallen apart.
EDIT: I'd be interested in knowing why you're so behind Rafa, Yozz? I'm all for supporting managers, but there has to come a time when enough is enough. If we finish the season 6th, having gone out of the CL early and without a cup to our name, will it be time for him to go then? If so, why not get rid of him now and give somebody the January transfer windows to start rebuilding. If not, then I would question the policy of running a football club on blind faith.
