Glum-faced Benitez Really Does Have Something To Bleat About Now As Key Men Get Injured


Liverpool fans should prepare themselves for manager Rafael Benitez to be even more grumpy than usual as the team prepare to play Fulham on Saturday night.

The Spaniard barely raised a smile after recent important victories and he is bound to be decidedly downbeat after an international break which Sami Hyypia and Yossi Benayoun are set to return from injured.

Given his increasing appetite for speaking out it would surely surprise no-one if he starts bleating about the international calendar and the number of games the top players are subjected to in the all-too familiar style of Arsene Wenger.

But his squad should be able to cope with a bit of bad luck (or rebelliousness/patriotism from his players) at this stage of the season and if he says he has his doubts, someone should tell him to look on the bright side of life for once.
