Dude... I'm happy that a fellow kopite is willing to argue on
this subject. Granted, Benitez has done more than what Graeme
Souness, Roy Evans and Gerard Houllier have done.. Granted, he has
won us the European Cup last yr... which I must say was the
proudest, happiest and most emotional night of my Liverpool fan
life...
Having said that, can't you see the bigger picture? He is slowly
embracing the path taken by our previous manager, Houllier.
Remember those Roy Evans days? During the Spice Boys era? Those
boys hardly won anything in terms of trophies. What they did win
was the constant support of the fans for their fluid passing and
attacking grace. Success did not come as expected but they did get
2nd most of the time. Compared with that team, I'd gladly choose
that team over the current one. More for what it represents. It
represents that flowing system passed down from Shankly to the boot
room boys. And it sure as hell is much more entertaining than this
current crop.
All i can say is, I can tolerate this team as long as they produce
the results. But given the choice, I'd welcome back Roy Evans or
Kenny Dalglish any time.
