Rafa is a Bentley Fan
Rafa Benitez admits that he is an admirer of David Bentley, but refuses to be drawn on speculation linking the winger with a summer move to Anfield.



The Liverpool boss will come face-to-face with the England international on Sunday when Mark Hughes brings his Blackburn side to Merseyside.


Rovers' playmaker has often found himself linked with the Reds after an impressive two-year spell at Ewood Park.


He is seen by many as the natural successor to David Beckham on the right wing for his country and could provide the attacking threat Liverpool need to mount a concerted bid for the Premier League title next season.



Respect


With Benitez likely to shuffle his pack once more over summer, he admits that Bentley is the type of player he will be looking to get onboard.


"He is a good player," he told the club's official website.


"People have asked me about him and I say he is a player with quality.


"But I have a lot of respect for the other team and so don't want to say too much."




Decent player but strikes me as a Jermaine Pennant effort. Shines in an average team but would fall short at a top one.

Re: Rafa is a Bentley Fan
His best attribute are his free kicks and as gerrard like to take most of them, he wouldn't get much chance to use his best skill. aside from that, i think he;s quite ordinary and wonder how he would improve us.

Re: Rafa is a Bentley Fan
Too one-paced for my liking. I think we need wingers who can run at pace and maintain possession of the ball.

I'm not so sure, i've seen the likes of Aurelio and Riise take free kicks from central areas i.e ones that are in decent range for Gerrard. If Bentley proved himself to be real quality, he'd get a fair crack of the whip.

Errrm it doesn't take a lot to beat what we have on the right does it? We should should aim to get players as good as what our rivals have.
