I dont.
Brilliant coach clearly, but lets be honest when you look over his back catalogue of transfers at Fulham and Liverpool he was usually wrong, or at best overpaid (eg the ones he bought from us)
I hope its DA and JP making the transfer decisions, not RH
Of the team that started the Europa cup final, he signed: Schwarzer, Duff, Gera, Hangeland, Etuhu, and Zamora. Only Zamora of those cost a significant fee, so actually his record was remarkably good given the money he spent, there were a few bad signings, but then thats what you expect when you go for cheap players.
At Liverpool he had next to no money (compared to now) and Benitez left him with a squad of something like 3 British player (given your meant to have 8 for the 25 man squad) which meant he had to buy Konchesky, and Jones, only given that he had barely any money he couldn't exactly afford luxury British players, Poulsen was then a bad signing, and Meireles was a success really.
So no, completely unjustified.
