Liverpool have officially announced this afternoon that manager Rafael Benitez is to leave the club by mutual consent.
The Anfield board moved to get rid of the Spaniard after a disappointing campaign saw them finish in seventh place and dumped out of the Champions League in the group phase. Although Benitez only signed a five-year contract last summer with a £16 million severance clause, the two parties are rumoured to have agreed a compensation fee of £3 million.
I like this!
This is not the way to go for Liverpool. They can`t get a better manager than Rafael Benitez. They need new owners, new stadion and 3 new players of class who can bring the club up again where they belongs.
Liverpool is free fallin, its gonna be hard to fing a good manager without knowing the future owners for the club. I think the stars, Gerrard and Torres, will follow him out. That means goog by to Liverpool. Championship next year?
Liverpool doesnt know their own good. I hope Toores goes to. Back to Spain!
Good bye Benitez. I am glad you are kicked out. You deserve much better than this club! Good luck!
