  1. Yossi Benayoun has been absolutely fantastic but we have so much choice in midfield and we play with three strikers. The chances for the midfielders are not so big and that’s why he has not played as much as he deserves.

  2. Don't forget Yossi Benayoun was injured. It's hard to find a replacement in Israel for a leader like that.
