KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Proud Rafa Accepted 6 MIl Not 16 Mil

Rafa is a good maanger, i believe, with the backing he will succeed..

it just shows his character, he was entitled to 16 mil, but he accpeted 6 mil, that shows he has LFC best interests in heart..

were else our owners, dont want to badge down on their price...

say wht you want of RAFA, i salute for the work he did at LFC

Rafa, thk for torres, reina, johnson, agger, srktel, aqualani (injury free season, he will show his worth), insua, mash, pacheco (destined to be good)

he turned gerrard into a 20 goal a season, how many goals was gerrad averaging at the houllier era...

he took carra from a right back, turned him to a good solid central defender...

thk u

I agree he was a good person but he made some bad mistakes bringing off torres and gerrard and putting on lucas and babel.

Shows our clubs sorry state. Can't even pay off the coach what THEY agreed to pay him. I would have tried to suck the 16 mill from the yank f*cks but Rafa knew it was from the supporters pockets. Fair play Rafa.
Without question, thanks Rafa!!! Why you stayed after Klinnsman incident I'll never know?! We just lost one of the top coaches in the world!!!

According to Graham Beecroft on talk sport this morning Rafa ONLY received £3m and this will only rise to £6m in increments if he doesn't get another job in a set period of time. So if he gets the Inter job he will have walked away with only the £3m.
I was never a big Rafa fan, but I would still rather have seen him succeed than this big circus we've currently got going on at our club.

fair to play to him i say. a money battle would have soured his exit.

I think you have to respect that, and even though last season was bad, i think he left on a sorta good note by not taking all the 16m.

The fact he didnt take the full 16m shows he's red to the core, the fact he stayed and battled on when the yanks were sniffing round Klinsmann shows he's red to the core, he did amazing things for Liverpool he turned Gerrard into the best player in the world, he gave us Torres and Xabi and turned them world class and he gave us the 2 most memorable finals ever. Forgetting this season the club has only ever moved forward under Benitez so thanks Rafa for everything.

He didn't take the £16 million because the club would have prevented him working for 4 years - as was their legal entitlement - or demanded a re-payment from his new employers in compensation. By paying up the remainder of his contract, the club could have enforced the statutory "gardening leave". Rafa did well, he got a pay off, and will no doubt be in employment before the end of the summer.

and he deserved it and deserves a top job too.
