Rafa Benetiz Really?

If we don't win FA cup and that's a big IF then chances are KK will be gone. However to my astonishment our fans keep talking up Rafa as next manager. Why? I know he's lurking around like a bad smell but let me just remind you about the Rafa days:

- dire negative football that relied on a then world class Stevie G to pull a rabbit out of the bag.
- constantly used the media to wash our boardroom laundry, shocking.
- fell out with owners, chief exec's, players, ex-players, and other managers and was really a control freak.
- he though Barry was a better player than Alonso
- paid 20m for an injured Italian and when he was fit never played him.
- the ill timed and embarrassing Rafa rant
- 4 year trophy drought.
- always putting his eggs in one basket and forgetting the other competitions.
- before he left he has lost the dressing room.
- completely dismantled Inter Milan
- cant get a top job since.

I do not want Rafa back. He had his time and it started well but went pair shaped soon after.

Edited Metro

I can't argue he was better than what we have now but so was Houlier. Nevertheless can he really win us the league?

Good article op. Very valid points. Rafa fans are looking at him like a bloke thinking about his first love. You only remember the few good parts and completely forget about the fact that she was/ is a complete psycho.

Rule #1. Never, ever go back. Even your mum tells you that.

Seriously, I'm not having a pop at rafa, he delivered us the champions league, but he is not the way forward for our club but I could even say that about kenny. Who we should get in? Pass, but losing to 2 teams in the relegation zone is simply not good enough and way past the "transition" argument.

Plus. Op. Looking at your other articles, I too, don't see you as a Liverpool fan. Admin, can you check please, see if you notice anything about his posting?

Mervin good luck finding anything dodgy in my postings and as for not being a Liverpool fan well I don't need to explain that to anyone.

Sorry op. But no matter how bad a job some of us fans perceive Kenny is doing... We do not call him a tool.

I was about to say the same thing, if you can't at least respect the man then don't post cheap insults. Your not the sort of fan this club needs.

You are right to bring me up on that comment and it should not have been said in that manner

I will however continue to express my views and if you don't like it then there is the filter option.

Well said mate. The OP should've been banned by the Admins for that comment, even though Kenny isn't doing a stellar job atm, that is no reason to insult him, especially when you consider how much he's done for Liverpool F. C.
