Prime example number one. How do you explain the two la liga's? The second European cup final appearance? The Uefa cup win with Valencia? It's embarrassing that you dismiss his biggest achievement as 'somebody else's squad'; why? It doesn't matter who signed them, he still motivated them enough to win the bloody thing. You dismiss things like his tactics and even the players he brought in when he got here. Utterly numb, which alone makes your opinion poorly thought.
You knock his ability to compete as some sort of requirement; did you see who he was competing with when he was here? Mourinho, Wenger and Fergie. Probably the three greatest coaches in English football during the past 15 years or so. He could have done better, no doubt, but he still done a good job in his time here, but people like you make up opinions based on nothing but weightless drivel.

Benitez failed to deliver what every Liverpool fan wants which is the Premiership. He only looked close to winning it in 09 and infact if it wasnt for his pathetic outburst in that January (about Manchester United getting special treatment from the FA plus slagging Alex Ferguson off) he most probably would have won it. Benitez allways took the bait dangled infront of him. You say look at the players he signed well to be quiet honest most of his signings for Liverpool where woeful with the exception of Fernando Torres from Atheltico Madrid and Alonso. You cant be telling me Benitez is a good manager because quite frankly his record in England especially going for the Premiership was woeful and he turned Inter Milan into a second rate team overnight after Jose Mourinho guided them to the treble only months before. Benitez tactics are ok in Spain he has won Championships and The Uefa Cup but his record out of Spain is ordinary at best.
