Why Rafa Benitez Is The Dumbest Manager In World Football

Charlie Klein

Honestly I am not reall sure what to say about this guy anymore, aside from the fact that he is a ruh-tard. Rafael Benitez, manager of Liverpool FC, one of the most storied football clubs in the history of the game continues to sully the team's reputation with pointless comments and diatribes at referees and managers.

I am not a Liverpool supporter. In fact, I hate LFC more than any other club in the world, regardless of sport. That being said, I still think that the team deserves better management than their team is getting now. Following their opening weekend loss to Tottenham Hotspur, who were value for their win, 2-1, Mr. Benitez had some choice words for the match official Phil Dowd.

The Times Of London described the post match press conference. When asked for his assessment of Dowd's performance, Benitez calmly produced a case from the inside pocket of his suit jacket and pulled out a pair of spectacles without uttering another word. Pressed further about the second penalty claim, Benitez said, 'With this referee I knew that it was impossible.'

We had a meeting the other day where we were told that we could not talk about the referee as a person and his decisions but I think everyone could see today. The fourth official is a young referee and maybe he needs to calm down a little bit. I don't know why Sammy (Lee) was sent off. The fourth official was too young. I don't know how old he is, but I think he is too young.

If one watched the match and saw the call that was not made on Benoit Asou-Ekotto, one would definitely understand why Benitez was upset. It is, however, not the call itself but the lack of class by Benitez for calling out an officiating crew when it was his own team's poor play that led to their loss. Most games are not won and lost by the work of an official, Rafa. And that's a fact you can keep in that book of yours.

The worst thing about Rafael Benitez (and why he is such a ruh-tard) is that he is hypocritical to the extreme. Last term the Fat Spanish Waiter held a press conference in an attempt to play mind games with his Manchester United counterpart, Sir Alex Ferguson. He brought out a sheet of facts (probably written with a crayon) in which he slandered a Knight of the United Kingdom citing how Sir Alex is able to get away with criticizing and intimidating officials. He went further to say that such conduct is wrong and ought to be punished. Yet only yesterday Rafa was doing the exact same thing he criticized Mr. Ferguson about last season.

A true gem of a comment by Benitez about how Liverpool's new and already injured signing Alberto Aquilani has a better 'killer' pass than Xabi Alonso who the club sold to Real Madrid. What Rafa is implying is that the player he fought so hard to keep at Liverpool was not that great anyway and that the player he just bought is much better. That, logically, makes zero sense. But in Rafa-Land, where big sandwiches and caloric soda pop are all within his fat-fingered grasp, this makes perfect sense.

Scousers, this man is the reason you will never win the Premier League.
