Also, let's talk statistics about the league games played and won
(edit: stupid tables. need to type this from scratch >_<)
- Bob Paisley P378 W212 , 56.08%
- Joe Fagan P84 W44 , 52.38%
- Kenny Dalglish P224 W136 , 60.71%
- Graeme Souness P115 W47 , 40.87%
- Roy Evans P172 W83 , 48.26%
- Gerard Houllier P216 W108 , 50.00%
- Rafael Benítez P223 W124 , 55.61%
I still think Rafa is doing a great job thus far.
rafa was using GH players like the goalie (he was the hero in pk win over milan mind you), Smicer,the croatian biscan, riise in the 2005 CL win.
100m mana enough for Rafa......................he needs all the gold in Fort Knox...............plus all the oil money in Middle East.....................
he'll spend it on 1000 players just to find 4 or 5 good ones............
I have finally found some one that worship Ah Ben.
Please dun frighten him away.
If he want proof, just give him proof and statistics.
yes he is right. the league position does not lie.

And where's Dudek (goalie), Smicer, Biscan after they were sold? Big stars playing for big teams... yeah. Riise used to be good, he did remained in the squad until 2 years ago.

Injuries and lack of owner's investments.

You found a liverpool fan who believes in supporting the club and not slagging the manager or team off for god knows whatever reasons.
So if you have your way and rafa's sack? what's next? Hire someone new?
If we end up outside the top 4 again (never mind the season hasn't ended), just sack the new manager? Ignoring all his accomplishments?
Yeah just keep sacking managers until we win the league, that'll do the trick.
such a shit season still can dare to ask for more $.
what if next season still the same? then ask for £200 million?
What a lousy reason you gave for being in 6th position.
Injuries and lack of investment - then what about Spurs ???
Liverpool was given funds to buy players, but, Ah Ben ended up buying a injured man who have yet to show the goods.
You just defending your one side statement.
Some of the Liverpool players and the manager are not good enough.
The result of match tonight is the proof.
I thought liverpool has turned the corner? how many corners does rafa wants to come up with?
SO FAR 1 MILLION CORNERS ALEREADY..NOW GOT HEADACHE,POOLMAN RETIRE TO FUCK HIS WHORE
well, if I am the Pool's owners, I would suggest performance based salary for Rafa.
If he achieves, he gets the $$, else, he has to cough it up.
I guess that will keep him really focus and determined to win something..

How much has he earned liverpool thus far?
How much has he spent in total? (hint: less than champions league income)
