I wouldn't swap Jürgen for any other manager in the world right now. In not saying he's the best (he's right up there though), but he is the perfect fit for Liverpool.
We were never going to win the League with Houllier but he made us a force in Europe and put our name back on the European map again. Rafa was really starting to put something together before he was shafted by H&G. Rafa did have some good players in the team when he signed. Hyypia, Riise, Dudek, Finnan, and Hamman were all signed by Houllier and played a huge part in the CL win, so to say Rafa inherited a sh*t team is BS! Rafa took what he had and added the players that were needed to win the CL.
Rafa is getting heat for the position Newcastle are in, I can tell you now Mourinho, Conte, Pep wouldn't even have took on that challenge, so fair play to Rafa for trying, but he's fighting a losing battle with Mike Ashley in charge.
