Maxi Rodriguez

[Lee]

I feel even worse now.

Yeah but he was a foreigner who didn't understand the Liverpool fans or appreciate the English game.

[Shaggy]

[Lee]

Bob, for such a happyclapper you really seem to dislike Rafa.

Are you xenophobic?

[RedReet]

LOL at this

Awwww, I miss those wee teeth.

[Mostar]

I pretty much did ...he built the best Liverpool side of the last 20 years. That's a fact

European Cup winners, FA Cup winners, all those runs to the European Cup semis and another final, and a record breaking Prem campaign....****ing awesome.

lee how about you don't be such a cunt in future.

I didn't enjoy Rafa the manager and I'm delighted that we now have Kenny back in the job. I don't hate Rafa, seems a nice man. I grew to dislike him as our manager. People seem to gloss over his reign as it was some magnificent time where the football was fun and we came oh so close. He did a great, no fantastic job, with some luck, which all managers need, to win the CL. that was brilliant, amazing stuff. He almost ****ed the final up by not starting with Didi though, bizarre decision. The league campaign was poor, the following year we won the cup, again excellent although we made hard work of the final, league again average, the next year we reached the CL final, again superb stuff by Rafa, but he helped to lose us that final by not playing Crouch, the top scorer in europe that season. That was the moment I had massive doubts due to his stubborness. The season we came so close we played dire until Feb and then from Feb to May it was the best football we've played in 20 years. So I'm not saying he was useless, fair from it, but the overall quality of the football combined with his usually negative (apart from said period) football style bored me to tears. If you only look at the stats, he was the bollocks. Stats are half the story.

I can't see why I can't think or say this outloud without the usual suspects piling on mass to state their love for the man and vilifying me. we are allowed different opinions. Another subject similar to this, is Lucas. Johndoe doesn't rate him and as usual the same 5 or 6 pile in everytime.

Its not a surprise there are so many posters that have left the site or don't post anymore. It clique city at times.

It is possible to have different football views and still get on with each other. I don't hold it against anyone in different forums or threads, shame others can't do the same. There are and you Lee are one, some top posters on the site. onwards to beating swansea and maxi should start.

I was pulling your plonk mate. Perhaps a bit too far. I haven't read your post yet but I saw the end and I agree.

If we had Houllier signing the players and Benitez managing the team, it would have been ideal

If Benitez could sign the players he wanted, it would be ideal

[Alex]

I hated it when we won the European cup, and the FA cup, and then come with in a nats bollock of winning the league. All of it was bull****.

[Roboklopp]

**** me. Houllier signing the players. Now there was a man that could waste money.

[BringbackBiscan]

Houllier's success in the transfer market wouldn't be much different then Rafa's tbh. Funny how Ged's not forgiven for his poor transfers just cause his rivals outspent him. I'm sure we'll not see Kenny moaning about not getting his first choice targets either.

[Neil Young]

Houllier's main problem in my eyes was his refusal to recognise his own mistakes. For instance, Benitez bought Keane and shipped him out inside six months. Houllier persevered with one poor player after another. The result was the damage was amplified.

[McDermotX]

Never ceased to bemuse and amuse me how many people took our European glory for granted back then.

"All this poxy European Cup crap is all well and good but we want the league!!!!!1"

Abso-****ing-lutely.................lot of Liverpool fans need a wake up call.
