Rafa Benitez assured in ‘positive’ meeting

[AFII]

Anyone who walks out of LFC obviously hasn't got the cojones to do the job and is more interested in personal reputation than the good of the club.

Threatening to walk out is a different matter, actually walking out is the cowards way.

Winners never quit and quitters never win

Eh, the only thing Rafa want is to be allowed to do the work he is hired for.

Of course it has to do with personal reputation. You can't allow you to get bullied around, how many top class managers do that?

You are finished at the top if you are bullied around and do nothing about it.

I think the real problem is Rafa wanting to play such a big part in the negotiations. As far as picking who the targets are I doubt they would leave that Coco. Problem is Rafa doesn't trust RP to seal the deals IMO.

And with Parry's track record you can hardly blame Rafa. Apparently we've missed out on Alves, Evra and Vidic amongst others because of Parry's bumbling and procrastinating, as well as almost losing Gerrard. It worries me that the yanks seem to put so much trust in Parry.

Well, I want a manager who cares as much about the club than their own reputation.

Nothing ground breaking in that statement and certainly not a '100% behind Rafa' kind of statement. Concessions were probably made.

If they came out with a statement backing him 100% then the press would probably say that he was given the dreaded 'vote of confidence.'

We can't win in these scenarios.

The statement is completely neutral.

And this?


“Rafa is the one we want as a manager further on, and we have faith in him.

“I’ve been married over 40 years and have first hand knowledge about how to solve an argument!

“We concentrated on getting an overview over the situation, and I felt we accomplished that.”

Then he's not the man for LFC and I will lose a great deal of respect for him.

I bet Rafa is gutted

Great, why did you lift those earlier comments though ? Both of them are similar in your opinion ?

And Jesus turned to the crowd and asked: "Who do you say that I am?"

And they replied: "You are the eschatological manifestation of the ground of our being, the kerygma in which we find the ultimate meaning of our interpersonal relationships.

" And Jesus said: "...what?!"

Worries me too but at the ed of the day I still think Rafa will be involved where necessary. At the end of the day though we are just speculating and TBH all that really matters to me is Rafa seems happy enough so far and the Stadium will proceed in one form or another.

These 2 things are what will take us to number 19 eventually, IMO

Did the Yanks say this yesterday, or is it an older quote?

Do you think Wenger or Fergie would accept not being in control of the transfers?

I don't.

Wenger and The purple nosed **** are not in control of transfers. The make it known who there targets are and others attempt to make the deals.

Its the way it has to be now, due to the birth of the scum of the earth players agents trying to squeeze every club for what they are worth. Financial and contractual experts have to be involved to ensure the clubs are not getting ****ed over
