Benitez is a fat whopper

Benitez CV speaks for itself mate, you can fluke a trophy here and there (Di Matteo, Martinez) but you can't fluke 1x Champions League, 1x La Liga, 1x Europa League, 1x FA Cup, 1x Copa Italia.

Its a fair point to make that his recent CV is average - but again so is Lampards amongst 90% of football managers yet why the difference in reception from the fans?

Its peak psychology - Boris Johnson was PM material not because he had a track record of success in politics but because he knew his away around a bacon butty.

Its populism / subconscious bias - the same way some players wont get much change oot of Zat and Iguana if they are older than 21 it also applies to managers be it age, personality, past clubs managed etc.

The mad thing is when you look at our history - was Kendall a cheeky chappy? did Catterick get us? was Moyes zaney? Would Royle have put up with Rodriguez calling in a sicky whenever he had a broken toenail?

The cream of the crop in our history wouldn't have stayed in a job past 6 months in the social media age as its all style over long term substance.


Frank effing Lampard.

Chelsea manager.



Rafael Benitez.
