How Benitez's triumphant homecoming turned sour

1 win in 13 games, there, I wrote the article for you BBC. No need to thank me!

That's the third paragraph in the article.

Perhaps there's more to the stories of the people in the game than just numbers.

Yes, like old scores to be settled at the Dell. Scores like 1 nil and 2 all that have happened in previous years.

There is one maxim of /r/soccer.

If a headline has "How" in the title, there will be at least one snarky comment in the replies oversimplifying the point of the article.

There's not a bigger insult in the world, so you better be careful throwing out that accusation.

I'm not a mod and never have been. Never will be, either.

As opposed to those who seek Reddit fame?
