Rafa Benitez Leaves Liverpool

[dww]

The Mirror really is launching a hatchet job on Rafa isn't it. Wonder whether they have done some sort of deal with someone on the board?

O Neill M 6/4
Hiddink G 3/1
Hodgson R 4/1
Grant A 6/1
Dalglish K 10/1
Oswaldo de Oliveira 12/1
Klinsmann J 12/1
McLeish A 16/1
Schuster B 20/1
Blanc L 20/1

I think anyone on that list is a step down, I don't want any of them. FFS Being linked with McLeish things really have got bad.

Absolute tripe! If this is the case then the players need to man the **** up and just get on with the job. If they don't believe in the manager then they can still take to the pitch and give 100% for the fans.

Like Carra said those who want to stay and fight, great, but the rest can **** off!

But if the reports are true, Carra is one of the players who wanted him gone. Big if, I grant you.

Don't see what you would have aginst McLeish really. I think he's shown himself to be a good manager.

You've suddenly changed your tune.... Thought you wanted Rafa gone?

Under proper owners, yes.

Under this rabble, no.

so has he left yet, or is this all speculation? can't be fecked reading back through the entire thread, ta.

I don't think we will sell half the squad but I think that the model from here on in is closer to Everton than any of the big boys spending wise. They have never wanted to risk money investing in the club - hence the levels of debt.

I'm not convinced that they are necessarily even worried about selling for top dollar - they can take money out of the club so long as we can repay the interest on the debt. Lowering the wage bill would increase the leeway for doing that.

At a time when we need to strengthen in quality and depth of squad I don't expect us to spend more than we raise in transfer funds.

We ARE ****ed. They're making money out of us even though we're being run into the ground. I'm utterly appalled and gobsmacked that they've been allowed to get away with it

Time to bump the 'who should be our new manager' thread?

I think it is fairly obvious after the "Rafa denied 2 meetings with Broughton" piece that they are briefed by Purslow.

All was revealed on page 5.

Speculation, almost exclusively from the Mirror.

Yanks out.

What a disaster of a football club we have become. There's valid arguments that it was perhaps time for Rafa to move on, but this sort of sacking by media that seems to be being orchestrated is just an embarassment, and so far from the Liverpool way its unreal. Rafa deserves better, and the future looks bloody bleak right now.

My first post...

Incredible news (if true) and another embarassing day to support the club.

We operate with no class whatsoever these days it seems...

Welcome to the site by the way.

Kanwar's loving this and bigging up his (supposed) links to Purslow.

****ing dirty mouthpiece. I hope his mouth gets proper used...

.. he really sounds like Dunk... which makes me think even more he is Rashid, and Dunk's contacts were in fact no more than just Rashid...

now there's a conspiracy for you... why else did he not publish my question to him "Are you Rashid?"

Lol. He's such a cock.

And he's worse than Rashid. Much worse.

Kanwar is an absolute cunt.
He's probably on here as well. joking ffs

Don't joke about that!

He isn't anyway. He was on scm for a bit though until they ripped him several new ones
