"Everyone asks me why I left Liverpool," said Benayoun. "There is only one reason – Rafa BenÃtez."
"He tried to destroy my confidence.
You can't treat a player like this and expect him to be happy."
BenÃtez tried to break me like he broke Riera."
As I've said before all this Rafa tried to break me, Rafa destroyed my confidence talk comes down to the player.
How many times has Torres said he may have scored two great goals, yet Rafa would pull him up about the 4 chances he failed to convert ?
Torres took that in his stride and took it as Rafa trying to help him develop his game.
Yossi and Riera have probably took it the other way, I don't believe however Rafa had any real 'Personal" problem with any player and wanted to "Destroy their confidence" or "Break Them".
I guess it all just comes down to players mentality.
