This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Benitez is a mystery to me by KnightlyRevue
He was great a at Valencia many moons ago with an attacking style and a great young team. They actually won La Liga pretty comfortably in 2002 and he would win the UEFA cup as well. On the strength of that Benitez got the Liverpool job and did pretty well at first and won Champions.
Since then, it has been a decline including a disastrous performance at Madrid in 2015 where he alienated nearly every player in the locker room; including a famous training session where he stopped practice to chastise Luca Modric for using his outside foot on passes. If I had to guess it will be back to China for Mr. Rafa.
