Rafael Benítez

[Puma]

Dear Mr Benitez,

I have a problem. For some reason, I have horrible anxiety in relation to our first game against Bologna and our prospects for this season. Is there any advice you can give me or sign to let me know we are going to be okay because thus far, I am not convinced.

Regards,

GL

Puma, you're hard to satisfy, man

You hated Jose, because you didn't like his "handling the pressure-arguing with the media" stuff. Now we get the total opposite, and you're still not satisfied.

Could you fullfill my curiosity, and tell me what kind of coach you would be satisfied with ?

 

[Puma]

My dream coach would be a mixture of the following:

Winning -----> competitiveness -------> man management ------> tactician ------> = Mourinho
Strict disciplinarian --------> = Capello
Passion -------> loyalty ------> commitment ------> cool head/calmness (maybe England has chilled him out) -------> = Mancini
The ability to remain evasive and provide absolutely nothing to the press --------> Benitez

Luka, do you think there is such a coach? ------> Unlikely...

 

[Luka]

Yeah I figured as much, just wanted to hear it from you

You do realise, you will always be unhappy then ?

Don't you think that maybe, just maybe, you should lower your expectations... a bit ?

Benitez said himself that we will gonna play good football and score a lot of goals. I can't see that happening. His tactics are destroying the spirit of the team.

Shit, it's not that I don't have patience with Rafa but when I see the wrong players playing at positions that they are not good in of course I am going to get upset especially after seeing how Atletico counterattacked us so easy. Only a moron would be pleased when playing with players like Deki and Chivu when we know that Zanettis place is the LB, I hope for tomorrow that Santon plays rightback and Zanetti on the left or vice versa as long as Chivu stays the fuck away. This is getting ridiculous if Rafa is going to keep playing with Deki and Chivu when we have so much more quality in our squad?

Don't you all agree with me on this one?

Did you just forget Maicon? I prefer playing Santon at LB if Zanetti is needed in midfield. My main concern is about the tactics used by Benitez. I don't care about motivations right now. Let's just wait for the right formation.

 

[Bic]

Hahaha you must be crazy which Interista can forget about Maicon but he is injured and didn't make the squad against Bologna, just hope he stays..

As for Benitez me myself don't get it why he would choose to change formation in a important game like that one against Atletico if it was because of what Mou said than this is a disaster we have in our hands. Let's see what he will do tomorrow im hoping for Coutinho at least and NO Chivu.

 

[Intermilano90]

Benitez is yet to choose his squad for tomorrow's game. When did Maicon get injured? I never read any news about that.

one game as supposedly everythings going to shit..? cmon ppl lets wait and see before we start comdeming benny. everyone was on his jock after the roma win, praising his worth. and now this...

Where is Nyall? He's the genius who got us winning the treble last season. I guess his absence cost us the super cup.

 

[Hasan]

Personally I am sure rafa will do a good job.

Yes, me too. Game against Atletico with ZERO shoots on goal was really relaxing. Fukcin Doemensch would do better.

this hate on Benitez is pathetic.
so benitez made some bad decisions in one game. okay. but he's our coach, for christ's sake. your criticism is totally uncalled for.

Pathetic is to be coach of European champions and in a game with average Spanish team play without shoot on goal, pathetic is to play with Stankovic on wing just because he can run, pathetic is to substitute the best player 20 minutes before end.

That is pathetic and that I call selling reputation. Find me one kid who will buy Inter shirt after game like that.

 

[Luka]

So in other words, you expect every Inter game to be close to perfect, playing with right mentality, not having off-days, having chances to score a goal, and loose only when luck is not on our side.

There is no such a club in the history of this game, and never will be.

For the love of God...

THIS WAS JUST ONE FUCKIN GAME !!!

 

[Jacquez]

okay.
first of all: Atletico Madrid isn't some average Spanish team. there's a reason they were in the final, no?

second of all: why do you care if some random brat buys an Inter shirt? jeez, why don't we let the club take care of the commercial aspects of this game..

your (not you specificly) lack of patience is pathetic. your unfounded lack of trust is annoying. Benitez was the best coach available, and albeit I do not expect another CL, I will keep trusting him until he gives me a reason not to.

Benitez was the best coach available,

This explains everything.

And Luka,

playin super cup of europe is something beautiful, great, whole football world is watching and we where impotent, without one shoot.

It's like you have a chance to fukc J.Alba and he stays down.

 

[Luka]

Hasan, you realise it's just a sport right ? You can't predict everything, not to mention there is other team on the other side who also can affect the way you play.

It could very well happen, even with Jose, and in fact it did happen on many occasions.
