Explain how.

IM mystified by that too.

Managers that could do better for us DOMESTICALLY

Hiddink, O'Neill, Hughes to name three.

Based on what particular evidence not one of them has won the league in England.

They are all possibilities to take over from Slur Alex :whatever:

Ok. Hiddink has had success wherever he has been at club level, he gets the best out of teams (like he did with Korea) by encouraging them to express themselves- polar opposite to Rafa. Hughes and O'Neill, British managers, they understand English football. Just my opinion obviously, I could be wrong.

What the hell has that got to do with anything? They would be candidates to take over at any big club should the job become available. Even if they are candidates to take over from Slur, there would be a reason for that surely? I am not quite sure what you are implying...

Rafa has had success and his understanding of English football has improved greatly add to that his desire and drive to win the EPL.
He has shown that if he really works at something he'll produce even with a limited team.

I take it you're basing this theory on the fact that they've done well (which I don't concur with) in the Prem with limited resources???

That's exactly what the argument for Raffa would be, done well but with better resources who knows???

So O'Neill and Hughes are in charge of a bigger club with better players and more money than they have had previously will therefore do better than previously. IMO then they would still fall short of the level that we were at last season.

Add to that that they have to play in the Champion League aswell as the Prem. Travelling across Europe only to play away the following Saturday.

Then there's the extra pressure of being in charge of a high profile club.

I can't possibly see how you can imagire that these two would be better than Raffa.

Any other manager would have to start from scratch and we'd be years behind again. And I don't think any other manager, especially O'Niell and Hughes, would have taken us to two European Finals in three years which at least takes away some of the pain of our dissapointing (not disasterous) Prem campaigns.

As for Hiddink, another unknown in the Prem so another slow starter maybe?

No he hasn't. I'm sorry, but no he ****ing hasn't.

I'm saying you have a Hidden Agenda. All your posts are Anti Liverpool and Pro Scum.

Hiddink is about the only manager that can do as Good a job as Rafa. O'Neill and Hughes have not shown anything to suggest that they can win anything in England

You seem to be suggesting we are at the same level as Villa and Blackburn.:whatever:

When the hell have I mentioned United? You are saying I am pro-scum for mentioning the three said managers which you have then suggested as possible slur replacements. You are ****ing paranoid mate.

Hughes has taken Blackburn to two FA Cup semi finals, O'Neill won the league cup (maybe twice) with Leicester. Very decent achievements for clubs of that size . Hardly not showing anything.

Didn't someone point out that since Rafa has taken charge our net spend is well up on the Scums?

:whatever:

Oh for ****s sake. I was raising the question, I honestly can't remember the answer. I'm sure someone said that.

Read it again. I'm sorry if it isn't/if I wasn't clear.

O'Neill and Hughes take a step up (with better resources) for there previous achievements and are still short of where LFC are today! i.e 5th or 6th.

Raffa and LFC take a step further, agian with better resources, Champions!!

What have O'Niell and Hughes achieved anyway?? You could I suppose argue O'Niels case for winning in Scotland but please don't try to compare to Prem.

Raffa has won a very difficult league in Spain. He has the experience.
