According to "sources" at Sky sports news they have agreed £3 million

Doesn't Leeds v Quins kick off at around 2? That gives you plenty of time to stagger into the nearest pub to watch the England v France game

Certainly did squire

5 now

Interesting. No big jobs available in Spain. Inter would be mad to go anywhere near him surely... What's the situation at Hull City?

Think Dowie is available....could do a job for Liverpool?

Nah they need a manager! Not a consultant

FFS dont start that one off

If he went to Anfield I think he'd do a job for Everton and United

Its the only place for watching all the Serbia games.

If Rafa leaves then I would imagine he would be going to Inter, Hodgson to Liverpool?

i would of thought martin o'neil might of been odds on if you ask me

Oddschecker/The bookies aren't always right you know

Yeah back to FA cup finals, CL finals and league cup finals oh wait..

If you think this is the main problem you are clueless.

From what I hear your board is the main problem. At least they are making the right move in getting rid of a manager who didn't perform at all last season. Or are you still firmly in the Rafa camp?

We need a clear out. Alot of dead wood in Anfield of late. Starting at the top with the owners.

The club in done inside an out its got cancer

One bad season doesnt do it for me, although I knew he would go.

Watch what happens next.

can kiss stevie g and torres goodbye

Doesn't really matter with these two in charge. We won't be taking any steps forwards with H&G, so if Rafa stays or goes, it doesn't really matter. It's harsh on Rafa, but that's the nature of the beast in today's sport. I've always regarded us as 'different' in that sense, but all tradition has gone from our club.

I'm just baffled that they've waited so long. Why didn't they do it after the Hull game?

Because they are both dozy yanks who dont know anything/care about soccerball?

Why?

The sad thing about the whole situation is that once again Liverpool are airing their dirty washing in public. It's not the way the club has ever done these things but alas, things change.

If the replacement isn't Hiddink then it is pointless changing the manager because one of O'Neill (Please God no),Hodgson, Hughes, Grant, Dalglish etc would be of no better calibre than we have now. If O'neill gets it, there'll be mayhem.

Thanks for the memories Rafa. I'm not a worshipper like a lot of Liverpool fans but he's had some good times at Anfield but last seasons backpedal despite retaining a large amount of his previous seasons team made me have a rethink about him. Cutting through the bol!ocks of blaming everything on losing Alonso and other injuries doesn't particularly wash with me as the season we got 86 points, Gerrard and Torres started together about 16 times in the league. The facts were that we declined due to Rafas tactics and poor buys (some of which he couldn't particluarly help with the money at his disposal) as well as injuries etc.

Rafa was a massive reason Torres came.

Also we have no money unless we sell, the club is fccuk why would they want to stay? and what top manager would want to come to here with the set up of crap owners and debt.

Its only going to get worse alot worse.

The clueless biffs will be jumping up and down now he's gone.

Like him or not Rafa gave us the best 5 years we have had in ages and it will be another 20 before we get anywhere near what we have seen under him.

Surely Houllier gave you better.

6 in 6 years>4 in 6 years?


Rafas LFC career started downhill when he took fergie on with his facts. Crying an almost shatting yourself on national tv probably made him look a bit daft in the dressing room and probably lost alot of respect. Im gutted hes leaving though.
