That article says that "there's an intro that isn't present in the video." but nothing of what he raps in Dutch in that video is found in the translation, so I think it's a wind-up.

That being said, I still don't like him though 

Now, granted, my Dutch isn't what it ought to be, but I've gone ahead and compiled my own translation.

i think that gives it away a bit

I should have read everything...

To the guy who mentioned Gerrard, the difference is, at least Gerrard is (for the most part, anyway) committed to driving the team forward. And there's no harm giving him a kick up the hole to remind him that as Captain, and as a player who has set the bar at a level others should be aiming to achieve, it's incumbent upon him to show a bit more gusto than he did vs. Villa for example.
If the intention is to sell Babel, then a bit of one-to-one man management is needed, on the side, out of the newspapers...Otherwise it just looks like Rafa is pouting once again...

The quotes are from an interview with Rafa, conducted by the offal, not the papers. In it, he tries to encourage the two to knuckle down and work hard to get back into the side - you say 'dirty linen' and 'out of order', I say a fairly standard response to a few sensationalised mumblings in the media, intended to elicit a positive response from the two players in question and the squad as a whole. Here's the article again:

"Albert and Ryan both want to play," said Benitez.  "They play in the same position and so have to compete with each other, which is good for us.
 
"The message is very simple. On the pitch all of the players have to prove something.
 
"Ryan knows he cannot go now, so he has to impress. He is a good player and we know he has talent. It's important for us to talk with him and see how he progresses over these months.
 
"With the World Cup at the end of the year the majority of our players will want to impress and if they do well in each training session they will have more chances."

You decide.
