A bit more on this ultimatum of his:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/dec/18/rafael-benitez-inter-club-world-cup
Also MD he had to win two games to win the World Club Cup - the semi against a Korean side, and the final against the Congolese one.
Bloody hell. Going against the board there, too. Has he got the fans on his side this time, though ?
Haha the waiter sayin for them to win anything he needs to buy 4 or 5 players in january haha sound familiar?
The chairman has told him to **** off too after lookin at his liverpool buys hehe
Hell be back at the rs next summer
Henry and Werner would never allow that feller within a mile of Anfield. The only people who'll employ him now are chairman of mid-table Spanish/Italian/Portuguese clubs who cant live without conflict in their lives and are just as daft as he is. He'll never get another crack at a truly top European outfit.
I would agree, except for the fact that you just know that if Rafael becomes available then there will be a sizeable number of that lot who will demand, in their own unique style, his return - especially if Woy's reign continues to bimble along in the way it has done thus far.
If Yanks II turn them down, it will be the first stick that they beat them (and whichever non-Rafael manager replaces Woy) with when they fail to win things / qualify for the CL / hang on to "Nando" / spend millions on "getting them back to where they deserve", etc etc.
Cant see it myself. That lot think in terms of Rijkaard and Deschamps...as if they'd dirty their hands on Liverpool without an Arab spending money like a drunken sailor. There's the usual Rafatollah rent a crowd who never went away, but the majority would be horrified at Benitez winding up back at Anfield. Even Kopites are not that stupid.
