Having realised that shite results and unbelieveable selections would not get him out if merseyside anytime soon, Rafa finally arrived at his masterplan.

Excellent, I'd be happy if Benji was Rafa's answer to their goal scoring problems!

Oh how the mighty have fallen...

They're clearly struggling for cash atm. Benji's better than shitters like N'gog & Kuyt.

Side note: Can anyone else believe the prices being quoted for Ryan Babel? What has he ever done? The price of below average players is becoming ridiculous.

This is extremely poor post.

Kuyt, while maybe not human goal machine, is ten times the player Benjani is. Without checking anything, I'd say his strike rate for Liverpool from the wing is miles better than Benjani's for us playing up front.

Babel is quality player who Rafa don't know how to use. Pace, skill and good shot.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Thought that myself. Kuyt is a quality player. CL standard without a doubt. Every side needs a utility man who will play where ever he is asked to play.

Babel has massive potential, he just wont do it for Liverpool. Benjani has never been anything more than a lower premier league standard player.

I agree about Kuyt but Babel is shite. Cant shoot, cant cross, cant pass. He's technically good on the ball but never has an end product. Anyone who spends anything more then 2 million on him has just had their pants pulled down and been buggered by Benitez.

I repeat, Rafa don't know how to use Babel. He should be used on the wing in 4-3-3. If they had Torres up front, Babel on the left and Kuyt on the right with Gerrard leading the midfield, they would be up there with top 3 (provided of course that they actually had some football defenders). The fact that he is picking likes of Riera over Babel goes to prove Rafa hasn't got a clue. Agree about one thing though, Bavel can't cross the ball to save his life. Then again, same could've been said about SWP at his age but SWP has CONSIDERABLY improved this part of his game in past few years.

People also have to remember that it was Rafa who payed 14m (or something like that) for Babel. Why spend that sort of money on player, who you have no idea how to use.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
