Benitez Out?

[Slim]

Have to say Hughes looks a bit of a tasty bet at 22's.

[Bingo Lewis]

So, is it confirmed now? has he actually gone?

[Renato_CTID]

Inter Milan will be his next destination, hope to watch how Mascherano would be welcome by Nerazzurri fans!

Still yakking about it apparently

I think it's matter of sorting things out anymore though. I reckon he is as good as gone.

[aladdinblue]

I heard he's on holiday in Sardinia or some place like that - would it all happen by phone/fax?

[Manx Blue]

RAFFA HAS GONE....R5L CONFIRM

Fucking gutted, they will be a threat next season with a competent manager in charge of a league campaign

[Dameerto]

I really wouldn't be surprised to see Hodgson move there.

A Liverpool fan I know would be up for Sparky but he's only a young lad and might just be grabbing names out of the air

[Craig B]

Hello Fernando.

Can you hear the drums?

[Dameerto]

There was something in the air that night.

[Dubciteh]

we should pounce on the likes of masch, johnson, even kuyt imo, obv torres and gerrard if possible, there going to be a shambles so great chance for us to get some players off them

[Beefymcfc]

I know it's early but who's next, Gerrard or Torres?

NB. Forget Benayoun et al, they're just fodder ;-)

[Renato_CTID]

I'd bet for Kenny Dalglish as their new manager, he'd deserve at all!

If I was putting money on it, I'd probably go the same; Kenny for Caretaker. Butif they are going to sell off the jewels, I'd suggest someone who has more of a reputation to gain by being at Liverpool than let's say, a lower team (or no job at all ;-)).

Amongst all the discussions Benitez will have had, im pretty sure it was a key demand of his that not only were the best players to stay, but he wanted more money to strengthen. By all accounts he was told there was no money to strengthen unless he sells, which was probably the reason they have come to this compromise.

Benitez was on a dodgy wicket with the fans after the team's performance last year. Had he also then been responsible for selling the best players, he was a dead man walking anyway - and with his record in the transfer market, he would have only spunked the proceeds on a load of very average players.

So, will the next manager sell to buy, or will he keep Torres / Gerrard and hope they do better next year? Its often forgotten that Benitez once went over 100 games without naming the same team twice, so maybe all they need is a manager who actually knows what they are doing, stop wasting money on shit players and to play attacking football that their squad is perfectly suited for

Good post mate, pretty accurate in my opinion. The only thing I'd add is 'Will the new manager have a choice of who stays or goes?', and I'm sure the players will have a say as well.
