KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum ALBERT RIERA ATTACKS RAFA BENITEZ

Maybe if he wanted to stay an Anfield he would have knocked on the door.

If you are trying to orchestrate a move away, you go to the press.

That's the wuss way out if yah ask me! If I think someone has a problem with me I would go straight to that person and to see what the craic is, and not bitch to other people to provoke a reaction.

still, none of us here would ever know if Riera did try to talk to Rafa or not.

it sounds very strange but no one can say this is the first time we hear about this, though this might be the first time someone attacks him in this way (pennant did it after he left).

exactly, no one knows if he tried to speak to him and therefore you can't call him a coward. it doesn't matter to me, i think it well known how rafa treats his players.

well once we hit the bottom Emp, the only way is up....BABY!

And when Shankly used to walk passed injured players in the corridor, completely snubbing them ?????????

different times mate

we all know football is not what it ones was

I agree - too many prima donna's who don't do their talking on the pitch

maybe.

but things have changed generally. there was a lot of crazy stuff that went on in any place of work back in those days. there are different expectations now. people are smarter, more emotionally intelligent, and socially most of us have evolved. thats not too say there is not a prima donna element, but if i was an injured player in this day and age, and my manager ignored me, i'd tell him to go fck himself, no matter who he was.

I'm sure you would, but you would say it to his face and not ask somebody to write it on a piece on paper and stick it on the noticeboard
