KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Dressing room wanted Raffa return !

Snake,

It is more than just Pepe, it appears a number of players have raised eyebrows and Bellamy has also pitched in within a separate interview along the same lines.

The more general point is if he can get the belief from the players to do what he says? Noone is going to tell me some players are going to stand and listen to his first icebreaker without thinking 'sorry what have you done again?'

Big ask,task and gamble for sure.

Tops I totally agree with you. Rafa would of been a better move in my eyes then the current flavour of the month. Its frustrating to see Liverpool have a blind eye to the obvious choice time and time again whether its a player or manager.

Even out of context there's nothing wrong with the comments. The significant thing is they were made before Rodgers was appointed.

There's nothing to suggest that the players including Reina won't support Rodgers.

Having gone through the experience of Kenny and Roy it's understandable that players who were there in Rafa's time would prefer to have hime back rather than another new unknown quantity. Kind of better the devil you know. And with Rafa they competed for the Champions League every nearly every season - not just to qualify for it.

Even our God said he would've liked to have seen Rafa back. And I suspect Steveie G and Carra also realise in their hearts how wrong they were.

But like I said, this was before Rodgers was appointed. Now that he's been appointed and after they meet him, I'm sure the players will get behind hime and be positive. Just like the fans will I'm sure.

still time for reina to leave. he's turned into an terrible keeper.vorm be nice

what a bolx article, take no notice. that quote from reina could be taken from any time and the rest of it is a load of shiit. very very weak journalism.

Looks like Reina's off the pitch comments are now matching his performances on the pitch, total bell, We can do without players making life harder and there was no need for it, his timing is as bad as his timing when diving for the ball.

who ever does not want to play for the liver bird can go to satan

The owners clearly wanted a manager who plays a certain style of football based on the Barca model hence our been linked with Guardiola and Klopp and actively pursuing Martinez and Rodgers. Benitez doesn't play that style and that appears to me to be the main reason he wasn't approached

I hope it's as simple as that Maxi. But if we end up like Arsenal.. fantastic style but no end product, then the mood will swing again.

But that debates somewhere down the line perhaps... and hopefully it won't be needed at all.

The players especially reina are out of order they have no right to demand who they want as manager ,I doubt gerrard wanted Benitez bck ,reina needs to worry about hid own game instead of picking the manager .
