Sack Rafa or keep Rafa?

[ronnie38]

Cool, I just tipped it in Rafa's favour.

It's irrelevant anyway, in Liverpool almost everybody want's Rafa gone.

[BatChainPuller]

Rafa is quite literally bumming our support, and is bumming our club.

 

Best accusation yet.

[BexBissel]

It means today's game could be the 49-year-old Spaniard's last at Liverpool after six years in charge, with the club wanting to resolve the situation by the middle of next month.

 

 

Liverpool's policy of trying to buy the best young players in Britain continued yesterday when they agreed a £2m fee for Rangers defender Scott Wilson, 23. Benitez agreed with the club to cancel his normal media arrangements ahead of today's game.

A) Hes 50

B) Who is Scott Wilson?

He's actually 18 year old Danny Wilson. The press eh champions of truth and accuracy.

[Red Nick]

we can't afford to sack him Nick. Not blowing a fortune on him and keeping him for a short while is marginally more palatable than blowing a fortune on him and getting rid now. He'll be gone soon anyway I think - either by him jumping ship or by new owners getting rid of him.

 

it costs 16m to sack him Max or you let him spend 38m on the next Aqualani and Johnson, false economy in my book.

At this point i'm reminded of my all time favourite truism. "The people get the Government they deserve".

and maybe not what they voted for

Mine is, 'Be careful what you wish for'

Because sometimes the truth isn't good enough...

[King Emlyn]

Well that doesn't look anything like what i would wish for.

.

That said; with a bit of luck and a modicum of hard work, even he may just be able to improve upon 19 defeats in one season.

No need to sack him since he is going to walk. He's off to Real Madrid: the whole Juventos thing was a smokescreen. You heard it here first.

 

It's not going to happen immediately, but Real are bringing in a new coach, and they would completely disregard his time with Liverpool, by virtue of the fact that we play in that dog of a league called the The Premier League, and it's not to be taken seriously. His appointment to Real Madrid will not be 'results oriented'.

 

To repeat: Rafa will walk at some stage shortly, and Real Madrid will give him a contract.

 

I suspect he will have great success there.

[jamespp]

Real sacked Capello when he won the league but they didnt like the football the team played, Rafa, the first thing he would do is sign Kuyt then probably the sack after 12 games

[KopOut]

Also, this whole statement by the Club is interesting re: Torres / Gerrard "we don't need to sell them'

 

It sniffs of a 'washing of the hands' letting us all know that when both those players walk, it was nothing to do with the club, but the players personal decisions.

Mourinho is as good as there. even discussing transfer targets.

You think so? I got the impression he was going to do another year at Inter at that Valdano wanted to give Pelligrini another chance.

I saw some reporter on the La Liga show and he sold me, he was so convinced there was not a shadow of doubt in what he was saying...he knew!

Is that the program where Ballague and Hunter try to out-bullshit each other?

[Arl arse]

Rafa wouldn't last 3 months at Real.

haha! I guess so :$

[derykw]

If he`s still in charge for the new season, I think i`ll cry.

 

I just can`t stomach our "style" of football any longer.

 

I want to be able to look forward to watching us play again.

 

Another season of toothless away performances with no shots on goal will send me over the edge. I`d end up in the loony bin.

[esoteric]

Perhaps you should give Real a call and offer your services as a consultant you obviously know more than their so called experts.

You best delete that post,rest assured you will live to regret those words.

 

You vile pan of shite!

Real will hire him to coach their youth team once more. They'd have to be crazy to replace the current manager, who has done a great job, with Benitez.

[Carradona]

I apologise for what was said in this thread to who I said it to (Durango) and anyone else who read it and took offence.

 

Bang out of order and there was no excuse for it.

[TheFutureisRed]

I really wouldn't mind if Rafa was replaced this summer as his ideas and methods seem to have gone stale and not working for him as much as they once did but on the grand scale of things it's nothing compared to the threat that the yanks pose to this club.

 

They have to go asap.
