Sack Him..... or don't

[vonk]

Does he really believe this?

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez:
"In this position, you cannot think about the leaders, you must think about the next game.

"You can play well, you can create chances, but you need to win.

"When you talk about a draw away, sometimes you think that is good, but when you are trying to reduce a gap, you must be disappointed."

No one with eyes watching that game could think we played well! I just hope this is simply media fodder and that behind the scenes Rafa is ripping them new arseholes for that performance.

Let's start a petition to have Rafa sacked and replaced with Sam Allardyce...

[Rafa Shankly]

Really backtracking like a cunt now.

Don't want him sacked.

****ing gutted at the result and performance.

My reaction was that of a fairweather cunt.

no your problem was you acted on your thoughts,nothing more than that.

none of us want him sacked,we all want rafa to be the one who gets it right,but
at the same time weve all wondered is he the right man,ALL OF US.

ffs some people reactions just because you were a bit to hasty with the thread is ridiculous.

were all ****ing grown men and we should all start realizing that supporting a team is an emotional nightmare.

and sometimes we say things we regret in a matter of minutes,thats all charlie has done,the guy has admitted it,stop ****ing over reacting and give the guy a break.

god forbid were not all 100% positive at all times

Welcome back Gérard, we've been expecting you.

[Imy]

Welcome back Gérard, we've been expecting you.

was just Going to mention that

[ronniedrew]

i wouldnt think so, hes just putting a positive spin on things , rafa says nearly the same thing after every game, win /lose or draw

[PaulLinehan]

Welcome back Gérard, we've been expecting you.

my thoughts exactly.............pretty soon we will be back on the magic roundabout turning corners !!!!!!!!


something is obviously not right at the club.......everybody seems to think that it is purely the argument about transfer targets but im not so sure that there is not something else as well

i reckon that there is a big problem with crouch

also, xabi hasnt played well in about 18months.....i know he's been injured in that time but he doesnt control games like his first season here.....

also, on another topic.....we were regarded as a one man team for a couple of years but we actually ARE a one man team now......torres!

[jonseyboy]

I'm a big fan of Rafa and as long as he's our manager will continue to back him. BUT (you knew it was coming, didn't you). You cant deny that between the A) terrible passing, B) lack of spirit and C) lack of communication, we play like a group of players thrown together instead of as a team. The negative side of Rafa's rotation policy?

how about Gerrard and at least Reina there's 3 men for you, Agger as well, Carra usually that's 5, Mascherano has been MOM a few times this season so that's 6 actually

crap

[Dhav]

Havent read all this thread because i cant be arsed reading all the doom merchants comparing to Houiller, how much Rafa has spent, style of play, who was and wasnt picked etc etc.

All i'll say is that we are stuck in a bit of a rut form and confidence wise. All its going to take is a little win, possible against Luton and we will kick on for the last 5 months.

Top 4 is a definite this season easy! The league is maybe a touch to far, but i was honestly really looking to next season as the one

Lucas, Babel, Insua to be regluars next season with a couple of major buys in the summer. We are really really close to being there!! if only 2 draws had been turned into wins this season we would be rite in the mix.

Dont lose faith people. We are soooooooo close lets not rip the plan up and start again

This place needs a dose of positivity. I was ready to get the bottle of whiskey and the painkillers after some of the ****e i've been reading tonight.

[bigfooty]

crap

The fans would respect him a lot more if he didn't pretend like we were doing fine.

Someone has to.

[Dhav]

The players are clearly low on cofidence and Rafa seems to think giving the performance a public slating on tv will not help. What's wrong with that? Rafa's priority is to do what is in the best interests for the team, not come out with comments that the fans will respect.

[el matador]

its time for rafa to leave.

the side is **** - we play like **** and our results are ****.

time for a change
