What would be the odds to get Xabi back then

What would be the odds to get Xabi back then

thats true didnt think of that, also ronaldo being confined to rafas disciplined tactics would be interesting.
my worry is that the media witch hunt against him and the atrocious owners of our club plus lets not forget its his home country, im not sure to be honest that he would stay.

Given the structure at the Bernebeau I can't ever imagine Rafa going there TBH. The board have way too much control over the team and tactics for Rafa-control-freak-Benitez to touch them. I think his next move, if in Spain, will be the national squad, after a long spell at Anfield

i wish i shared your optimism mate.

I'd be surprised if Madrid came in for Rafa to be honest.

He's not exactly setting the European world alight at the moment.

They may aswell look at Mourinho, Sven, or Hiddink.

Rafa has pushed for full control at anfield. he wont get th
at at real. cant see him going there. when he does it will be his last job sort of thing

I doubt amany would turn Madrid down. Just look at their players. To manage that must be a dream.

I think we may "allow" Madrid to make an approach for Rafa at the end of the season if we dont finish top 4, to avoid paing him off.

Well Rafa already has on a number if occasions.

Then I'd push for Steve McLaren as coach. He's been doing fantastically well in the dutch league.
