Maybe he's not that big on rotation as I thought. He seems to have a core few players who he relies on for most games and that only changes for the cup games. Not that different to most other managers then. Not that there's anything wrong with it mind, the policy of the shirt is yours as long as you earn it generally is a pretty good one.

:lol:

He's not going to rotate the entire team after each game man. We made three changes tonight from a win at the weekend, that's more than most managers does even if they lost.

I don't think he's rotating at all really, some players are starting just about every game.

Largely a myth perpetrated by the press during his time at LFC. Over a season, he doesn't rotate any more than many other managers.

Went 99 games before naming the same 11 according to the press ?

He clearly likes squad depth, I think a lot of us assumed that meant he'd be rotating players just to keep them happy. Obviously not the case. Gouffran is the prime example of a player who has kept the shirt on sheer merit when there were probably 3 or 4 players ahead of him in the queue at the start of the season.

Love our manager, and what he's done to us as the collective supporters and our club.

 

You're fucking weird as shit Dropout, why on earth do you need to troll/nitpick everything and claim your opinions as such almighty every damn time, man?

Playing to win, that's what he's doing.

 

We score early, I feel like we'll turn a team over for the most part. Keep it tight for a half or so and get a goal, and look comfortable it's almost like Rafa urges them to attack and press more and turn the screw. I love it, I'd obviously want to just thrash teams left right and center from the off, but he's building this team in a way in which it should go out and play a certain way versus anybody (PL or Champ, or below) and hopefully that's something that carries forward to a promotion (title!), cup run, and PL next year.

Kanji, relax. 

 

He has rotated less than expected.  We seem to have a core group of about 16 players - half of which are really battling for their shirt which is rare for us.  Then we've got another half dozen - including some big names like Chancel and Mitroeho are brought in when the others are tired or injured but the key here is they can actually earn and keep the shirt.

 

Another big thing is how few injuries we've picked up. We have the strongest squad in the league but we haven't needed it.

Being able to criticize our managers over the past 10 years has been so easy when they've been so hopelessly inept.

 

Now, I don't know how to respond to team selections because it's Rafa F. Benitez :)
