KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Benitez has now been contacted

We were shocking towards the end of Rafa's reign, I do not want to see this happen!! I know this is who most LFC fans would like to see back as Liverpool manager but this also who many non Liverpool fans would like to see back!!!!

We should be used to that by now.

whatever about eyebrows being raised when dalglish being appointed, i have spoken to a lot of friends who support other teams regarding his appointment and they were of the opinion that it made sense because the club was all over the place and needed to be steadied. they might have chuckled a bit at him not achieving as much as we hoped in the league, but my christ they are going to cough up a lung laughing if we re appoint raffa.

.....and we're supposed to care because?

So what what other people from other clubs think about us if Rafa comes back, so f*cking what!

If Rafa gets it or doesn't get it, we still aren't getting the very best man for this job, for at least another year, so what do you do, wait around and rest it all on the shoulders of someone not even at the club?

Put your hate aside for one moment and just look at the managers we are being linked with, Rafa has to be near the top, if not at the top out of all of them. Regardless of him managing us before.

Its a sad state of affairs and I personally would have given Kenny another 12 months, if its still the same after 6 then try to approach Pep with a bit more intent.

But we can't wait around, and a manager has to come in now.

The best managers on the list are Villas Boas and Rafa, and there are question marks above Villas Boas's head, I don't personally think there are, but FSG will!

I'd be inclined to have Villas Boas because of the age, he could be here for 20+ years and our Fergie if everything fires on all cylinders, or we could have Rafa for another 5 years and at this minute, I think Rafa would make more of an immediate impact than Villas Boas, sorry, but I think thats true.

Some people wont want Rafa, but if he comes back, there aint a damn thing you or I can do about it, I will get behind Rafa for a second time, will you?

Link for old times sake

would benitez work under the structure FSG will put in place ?

the point is raffa only ever won over one set of fans. liverpool fans. he did so by the skin of hiss balls craney. dont get me wrong i will forever cherish 2005, but we were like houdini during that competition most the time, and it was the same in the fa cup final 2006. he was a kick of a ball away from winning nothing. on top of that he was cancerous to the club in the end and i dont say that lightly.

look thats just my opinion, and i know some people differ but im not just going to jump on a fckin band wagon here for the sake of it. hand on my heart it feels wrong wrong wrong.

done a lot for the city davo, dont get me wrong, and a lot for the club in some ways, and all in all seems like a good guy. but from a football perspective it has to be a cold hearted no, it just has to be.

Well it seems this structure is catering for Rafa doesn't it?

With the appointment of Xavi Valero, Jen Chang, rumor of Txiki Birsh*tstain as D-O-F, retention of Steve Clarke (with a struggle).

Rafa will work with people if everybody works together, isn't that what every normal manager and man would want? Everyone working in unison, no one gunning for one another, nobody interfering, full backing of the owners?

If the owners back Rafa like he has never been backed before and we are not successful, then I give up.

IT HAS TO WORK.

ok fine but remember everyti me he has had to work under a structure he has caused conflict and demanded full control not just at liverpool but inter and valencia
