Rafa cannot handle pressure are you sure about that !! have you heard the Chelsea supporters this season ??? He has been villified by the media and every dickhead pundit for absolute no reason through his Liverpool tenure and they and the Chelsea fans have been villifying him for the last 5 Months, yet he still succeeds in his objectives , infact if the classless fans of Chelsea supported their club and not focus on rafa , the dropped points against Reading, Southampton, Liverpool, Spurs. and Qpr could have been avoided and they would have been 10-12 points better off and really put pressure on UTD for the title but the hostility is just brutal.
Regarding our title question in 2009, the press conference attack on ferguson was the truth in English Football that no one wanted to hear , and also it was a sideshow to Gerrad being arrested and jailed for attacking a DJ who would not out phil collins on for him and his mates ! how fucking stupid was that from a Liverpool captain going for the title.
We had Torress as our only striker and he only played 17 league matches, against Ronaldo, Rooney , Tevez, and Berbatov not to mention Howard Webb.
86 points and 2 defeats wins you titles and a perfect example of Rafa's achievements being belittled and twisted to potray him and shape his perception, thats what they are like towards him but knowlegeable football fans will look at someones CV and make a correct assessment.
Trust me , I can guarntee you, that Chelsea with the foundations being laid of an improving Luiz, Hazard, Mata, and Oscar plus more investment and Mourinho will dominate English Football next season, and If Man City need to be winners then they need Rafa Benitez, Mourinho is potrayed as a Golden because he plays the Media but his success is that he wins with Big Big Money, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Madrid, Rafa has 7 trophies less with not even an ounce of what jose has spent.
Mourinho Chelsea 2004-2007 spending Millions on top of Romans spending under Ranieri.
2 Titles, 2 League Cups, 1 Fa Cup, 1 charirty shield.
Rafa Liverpool 2004-2007 20+ Million net spend
2 European Cup Finals ( 1 WIN) 1 FA CUP, 1 Uefa Super Cup, 1 Charity Shield, 1 league cup runner up, 1 World Club Cup Final, (7 finals, and 3rd twice in the PL)...so who would you say has achieved more and are they as good as each other.
Football is a lie if you play the media well you get praises and recognition and criticism and truth is hidden. look at Brendan Rodgers the ultimate Media Manager, has done a shit job and lot of fans like me want him gone and replaced by Rafa but his media buddies will make him into a coaching legend and now he is being touted as a City manager ..What the Fuck, he is shit but if you ask the average fan , watching sky sports , listen to talk sport, and reads the Rags they will tell you Rodgers is great ..Loooooooooooooooooooooollllll....Hodgson is great and Harry Redknapp is the best in the world...its all shit on a stick....
Good luck with whatever happens, but I hope he gets the job as it be good to see him succeed in a country where he his completely villified..and for what exactly..that he is rather good at what he does ??? Our new onwers are shit scared to bring him in beacuse of his power with the fans and we are stuck with David Fcukin Brent,,, Why cant we have owners who know about footballl ??? For Fucks sake
