Very true, but sometimes the record needs to be changed.

not fact Joe fagan and dalglish between then four titles one European cup , two league cups and one double , plus houllier the trophies he won so not fact embarrassingly not fact .

Houllier??????? LOL
As for Fagan, he wasn't really around long enough for anyone to say whether our successes were down to him or whether it was just something he inherited.

As for Dalglish, he has never won anything as a manager in Europe.

Rafa, on the other hand has won:

UEFA cup - whilst in Spain
Champions League and Super Cup - whilst in England
FIFA World Club Cup - whilst in Italy.

There can't be many managers that have ever done that well across europe. And unlike Mourinho, Rafa's achievemenst weren't all funded by massively wealthy clubs. Give the guy some credit.

Joe fagan league title, European cup, league cup , league runner up , FA cup semi finalist and European cup runner up , dalglish three titles two FA cups one league cup plus the clubs only double .

I'm aware of that but it doesn't change anything. Adding together the achievements of 2 men to compare them against 1 is a bit pointless isn't it? Besides, between them they've still not won as much as Benitez in Europe, so your point has backfired somewhat!

Joe won the treble and dalglish won three titles

Joe fagan was the manager of the club greatest achivement beating a.s.roma on there own groun d making Liverpool at that time the greatest team in the world , dalglish won three leagues plus the clubs only double beating everton to it , just ridiculous to say benitez is better than them .

Rafa also had us as the greatest team in the world, according to official rankings. (I'm not sure why you bother mentioning Fagan reaching the semi final of the FA Cup - 4 managers achieve that feat every single year!!!!)

And you're still adding together the achievements of 2 men and overlooking the FACT that dalglish never won anything in europe with any of the clubs he has been at. Dalglish and Fagan succeeded on the back of Paisley's legacy.

You may not like Benitez as a person (although I doubt you've ever met him), but to belittle his achievemenst across europe makes you come across as a bitter tool.

Joe fagan was only there a short time and dalglish presided over the clubs decline to which we still suffer to this day. But really comaring these successes really misses the point when anyone looks back at our history surely the 2005 champions league campaign has to be a high spot some would say the clubs greatest ever achievement certainly the most memorable. Rafa Benitez holds great affection with the Liverpool fans as we saw yesterday never known the Kop the chant an opposition manager so much it was constant all though the game.
