Best manager since Sir Bobby, I had almost forgotten what it was like to have competent leadership.

 

For the first time since SBR, my entire mind and body instantly calmed whenever they cut to him mid-game on telly, and you saw he was there. Usually I want to punch my telly.

Best in-game manager we've had imo.

 

You know how generally on here you'll get a lot of people saying 'bring on such and such' at around 60 minutes, but then Pardew would bring on a left back and McClaren would bring someone on with 13 seconds left? Benitez actually does these things before we've thought it, which is new to me, I can't remember having a manager like that.

It does seem very alien doesn't it?

Yep, Cisse kept giving it away, not holding it up at all in the 2nd half. He spotted it early and made a change. It's nice to see our manager do that and not wait like a idiot (Steve) or make baffling ones (Pardew)

I like how he plays to the players strengths, he is slowly getting the best out of the limited talent we have. Players like Sissoko and dross bellend have energy to burn and they are always looking to hit them on the break every chance they get.

Really think we needed to win this one.

 

Luckily, Liverpool have a derby tomorrow and Euro semi midweek. Klopp should rest some players. Unfortunately, they are in tremendous form.

City were also in very good form going into tonight and went full strength  :dontknow: So difficult to know what sort of side will show up with their congested fixture schedule.

Aye he doesn't f*** around :lol: What time did he bring Mitrovic on? the 55th or something, would have never happened with previous managers.

 

I said that at the time. How blooming constant is it for our managers to wait for the 60th or 70th minute as if it were preassigned. He actually reacts to whats happening, Cisse had clearly dropped a level so he made the swift decision. Good.

He exudes class and proffesionalism, and works as hard as the players during the match.  As has been said before its such shame he wasn't brought in just a few games earlier. The line between failure and a bright future is very thin and we may just fall the wrong side. We can but hope.

I think he'll be here nest season if we ant him, no matter which division we're in.  The crowd tonight will have played a massive part in that as he now has no doubt what so ever how we feel about him.

 

He's loved here and he's never been in that position since he was at Liverpool and that will be massively important to him.
