See your points. Obviously you don't believe a single word Benitez says, I get that. But what do you do when you're a manager and your defence is leaking 3 and 4 and 5 goals against mid table teams?
He has to drop players out of form or switch things around. Also, we don't see how these professionals respond in training before matches and on a Monday after a drubbing, we don't hear conversations between manager and player.
Some people already have their agenda and opinions on Benitez, but quick to defend Digne? For all we know he's spat his dummy out and fell out with the boss. So he's playing crap and now he's questioning the manager, that was never going to end well.
How does that work out in any other profession when a worker falls out with their manager? They will tell them to foff. And they get sacked or move on.
I'm happy he's gone, we want players who will fight for the team and the club not individuals looking to down tools and cry when things get tough.
