      What a load of f***in bollocks, Rafa was simply indicating that working under Moratti is much better than when he was under H&G, it does'nt take a rocket scientist to work that out, why bring in his decisions like withdrawing Nando, Rafa made mistakes of course he did what manager does'nt, he is gone now but people still want to bash him, f***in shame on you!! the man is a legend and i would have him back in charge in a heartbeat, would'nt you?

      Think Rafa is spot on ! why else would they turn down Kenny for manager when he offered to do the job? quite clear they don't want anyone football minded who can argue back at them ,Rafa's job is in italy ,his heart is still attached to anfield .

      Torres clearly wasn't ready, and his attitude and body language showed it. He went down easily, was rusty, tired-looking etc. He just needs more time. I don't seee why anyone cares whether the board knows anything about football anyway, as they don't make the pitchside decisions. They aren't in the technical area pulling the strings.

      Considering you were such a big supporter of the man at one stage, you take every chance to give him sh*t. Frankly, its childish and makes you seem no better than the likes of AngelicRayment. This is a man who won the Champions League here, almost got the title - oh, and has two spanish titles to his name as well with a club other than Barca or Madrid.

      F**k off with that sh*t, especially when he is having a go at our owners as well. He should be supported in the fact he is still speaking out even though he has no professional affinity with the club anymore.

      ANYWAYS, just had to get that off my chest as seeing that made me want to punch something.

      Love how he is so smart with his digs at things. Using 'soccer' instead of football to highlight the attitude of our owners to the sport. Love it. Love Rafa.

      Nothing to do with technical decisions though is it lad?

      It's all to do with the bas**rds not providing any F***ing sort of transfer budget and not backing his plans for the club.

      That's true, quote Shanks' holy trinity ;D

      But knowing about football applies to the pitch and what happens on it, not to the guys signing the cheques (or not in this case). Our board are guilty of NOT signing those cheques. Doesn't matter what they know about football.

      Still helps.

      I'd guarantee Sir John Smith and Peter Robinson would have known a lot more than the current idiots we have on our board.

      If Rafa was provided with a proper transfer budget he would have won us the league, he saying what we already know but nice to hear a legend say it. I don't think it is beyond the realms of possibilty we see Rafa back here either.

      So i take it you were not running round like a nutter in 2005 when Stevie lifted the European cup? Or excited  in 2009 when you thought he would lift number 19? or in 2006 when we won the fa cup? I could go on....

      Every manager makes bad decisions, they are human just like we are- i wont list mistakes other top managers have made, as it would take all day- give Rafa the credit he is due!

      Agree to an extent here, but without opening old wounds or seeming like a dick, surely Roy should see this as a golden opportunity to attack and go for it? Really try to do what Rafa couldn't?  I mean, he won't be provided with a transfer budget either. And if I went from Fulham to Liverpool I would be like a kid in a toy shop. I hope I'm being clear here.

      Roy isn't showing much sign of going for it so far though, Torres is so isolated at times I think Reina is the closest player to him. It has been shocking to watch

      They chose Roy over Kenny FFS. Roy is ours now so he will get his chance and our support I am sure. However if the takeover does eventually happen then I think its anyones guess what will happen but if we are mid table or worse then I dont think he could complain if he was replaced.
      After all this is Liverpool and we deserve the best Manager in the world, does Roy really fit that bill.As for the board they are business men and not football men otherwise when Kenny said he was interested they should bowed at his feet and kissed them.

      I saw some links somewhere that Martin O Bloody Neill was being lined up already by the new prospective buyers! WTF? Give Roy a chance for crying out loud!

      If there is a takeover I think Hodgson is another Mark Hughes waiting to happen.
