You still don't get the point Chris, thankfully Spiceboys understands.

We had a world class manager in Rafa, he was sacked partly down to the senior players Carra and Gerrard.

If Rafa came back, Gerrards feet would not hit the floor through the exit door.

History is repeating itself, Gerrard, Johnson and Skrtel know they will be off next summer if BR stays as manager, so why would they give 100% to ensure BR gets to shift them on the summer.

Far better for BR to get the sack and those 3 to get extended contracts.

The same happened when Rafa was sacked, Carra who would of been released got a extended contract.

Rafa is ruthless, if he came Gerrard, Johnson, Skrtel will not be in the plans for Rafa in his 2nd term as manager.

One thing Rafa will do is make us hard to beat. His style wasn't great and I'd prefer that of last year to any Rafa team. But given the choice of the bull cr@p we're playing now or that under Rafa, I'd take Rafa any day.

Having said that, I don't think he'll be coming back any time soon. FSG can't afford to sack Rodgers and he won't resign so we're stuck for now.

Explain? Nothing to do with a 7th place finish and losing key players like Alonso and Arbeloa and replacing them with Aquilani and Johnson? Or nothing to do with trying to flog Alonso and replace him with Gareth Barry the season before?

OMG, how long have you supported us Chris, I shouldn't have to explain the events of Rafa sacking or the friction he had with Cara or Gerrard.

Just do a search on google, or better still read the venom Carra has for Rafa in his autobiography.

An unlucky 7th place isn't the reason he was sacked. He had a negative spend in his final season and didn't get the funds to replace those he sold. Gerrard and Carra refused to play for him and went running to Parry championing him to get the sack. Rafa had sown the world what the owners were really like, they weren't going to let him get away with it.

Funnily enough, earlier this season, Carragher was asked what was your greatest memory, Houllier's treble or Rafa's Champions League, needless to say he chose Houllier's without even thinking about it. Which is funny as Houllier didn't rate him either.

Houllier played him a few times at central defence and never again, he was shoved to right back, at which point Houllier signed players to replace him at right back, Steve Finnan, Song lol.

What's amazing is that both managers didn't rate Carragher yet played him every week? Obviously because he was bullying them to do so like you say.

According to your lover boy Spice Boys Houllier didn't rate Carragher either? Thats a direct quote from him.
