Win the World Club Championship at the weekend sacked come Monday. Guessing the owner don't like being told how to run his club

Didn't Benitez say he needed 4 or 5 players to add to his team to challenge, despite the same team doing the treble last year? Shit manager

Drive by abusing
He basically called on Moratti to back him or sack him, Seems he has done the latter of the two.
According to quotes from Marco Materazzi at the weekend it seems he's lost the dressing room too.
Found it baffling he got the job in the first place.

I was right in amongst the Inter Ultras on Saturday. Brilliant atmosphere

They were singing songs that sounded like support for Benitez but all in Italian so could have been anything as I was only picking up a few words. Could have sworn they had a song about Amanda Knox too!! Again I was only picking up odd words...

His record hasn't changed form L'pool - give me money foir players or we won't win anything. Forgetting that some of his buys for the reds were bigger turkeys than I'm having for lunch on Sat (Babel ???)

Reina, Xabi Alonso, Mascherano, Torres

Owner promised him 4 new players to sign the contract and hasn't been given them, so he publicised that and the owners didn't like it.

@Flavor Fav, anyone who honestly thinks he is a shit manager, is an idiot.

But what about the league. Thats what the fans wanted, and he didn't progress the team forward enough while liverpool boss. When he left they were hardly in a better position than when he took over.

He thinks he is better than he is.

In his 2nd to last year, the amount of points he gained would of won the league in any other premier league season, so he has the 2nd highest ever points tally in premier league history

They couldn't really do much in the league. Torres and Gerrard were injury prone last season and the former owners , hicks and gillette didn't like him and were not giving him the funds to build a team?

You can try and get the best out of the players you have, and manage them. A lot of the squad were players he went out and paid good money for.

It doesn't matter how many points you get in a league, it is where you finish. Record points are only great if you hold the record points total. They finished second, so another team (no doubt man u) were better than liverpool.

Or he doesn't like his team going from Champions of everything to a load of tosh. Winning the Worlc Club thing doesn't mean a lot.

Mourinho has been quite outspoken in criticising the decline of the Inter team this season, and they have been awful. That's why he's getting the sack.
