Liverpool's Benitez' Dogged Nature
By Calum Law - September 2 2006

Not only does Rafael Benitez look and sound like a VAT Inspector, he also shares that profession's shrewd and dogged nature. Finally securing target Dirk Kuyt, he unleashed the Dutchman on a floundering West Ham for the most impressive debut half hour the Premiership has seen for many a year.


Striking an instant rapport with Benitez' other summer bargain, Craig Bellamy, it looked like Mourinho's worst nightmare may indeed come to pass: the geek shall inherit the earth.

If any manager has feel of geekness it has to Rafa. You have the feling that he thinks tacticsall day everyday, and he doesnt look like selfimportant **** or an ex-footballer.
So I actually understand the geek label.

Yes Rafa is more of a geek than Southgate. Southgate is more of a bumbling fool than geek. At least a geek knows what they are talking about rather than hopelessly blagging their way through life.

I wonder if he was a bumbling fool when he got home last night. Wonder if he was in the bad books? saw him getting into his car with a big bunch of flowers yesterday!!
