It is a huge gamble on the clubs future to believe, hope or pray that RB will secure a top four place.
Poor results against Man City, Everton and Arsenal we could no longer believe, hope or pray.
He would have to go and should go.

Yes Julie couldn’t agree more about the corners. Why Gerrard takes so many is beyond me. He should be in the box ready to pounce on anything loose, get in a volley, header etc, etc. At least if the ball went to him we would have someone who we would have high hopes of hitting the onion bag – unlike the rest (Torres excepted) who are just as likely to put in Row 54, fluff it, spoon it or any other way they contrive not to score.

hello george, yes i think everyone has a right to pissed off about rafa. but i stand by what i have said before, now is,t the time to sack him. if he has not got us at least 4th then i think he should go. because even thoe we have had a lot of injuries, the players he has used kuyt, voronin, babel, lucas. have been his buys and everyone of them is poor. i still have faith because when he has spent big he has done ok, torres, riena, johnson, mash. all should i say WHEN HE GETS HIS FIRST CHOICE OF PLAYER HE DOES WELL, keane, and babel were not his first choices, he has made poor choices in the lower end i agree, but that end will allways be a gamble. look at fergie nani, 19mil crap anderson 17mil? hargreaves20mil. none of them are any good are they? yet he still gets the money he wants to buy , who he wants. everyone knows rafa wanted silva, villa, and even barry, but we have not got the money, well the yanks have,t i said last season we needed a top striker. and a wideplayer, we still do, plus a creative midfield player my choice senna . and while the yanks are in charge we will only get a yes man, remeber they wanted klinsman? he lost his job because he is crap. i will wait till the end of the season , even thoe it feels like the end now i still think we will finish in the top 4. i know its not good enough but from the postion were in now its are best chance.. allright kev i know your mad at the moment and i respect your views too and on many of them your right but hang on in there. hi julie nice to have you back…

Hi Julie. If Benitez goes I doubt that it will be voluntarily. If he goes whoever we get in will need some asurance from the Americans that there will be money for top class, not effing average, players who draw huge wages at Anfield each week. Our club is full of them. Useless at the top level. If Benitez leaves, like Rouman I would favour Hiddink. But if we can’t afford him, as very much a long shot I would ask Phil Thomson. Kenny won’t do it. The stress got to him and he isn’t going to put himself through that again. Thomson is as pasionate about Anfield as anyone. He did a good job as Houlliers stand-in. I mention his name only as an outsider if we have a new manager but if we want someone to shed blood for us Thommo would be the man. I can’t believe that I and the rest of us are writing all this stuff after what promised for us to be The Season!!! Nothing could be further from the truth. And whilst, as I always say I will die supporting LFC, I really fear we haven’t seen the worst of the season yet. We are f…ed in Europe despite all these riduculous comments from RB and players that it aint all over. We are unable to put away mediocre opposition, WE ARE IN A MESS!!!!! And yes Kev, like us all who care about the Redmen, don’t blow a valve!!!

Agree with ur post otley and scouse something has to be done and now we cant go on like this and birmingham is rafa’s boggie side of all the teams eh? rafa has never beaten brum! its laughable isnt it?

Something has to give in this 2 week break rafa is the wrong man 4 the job why is it that only a hand full of us can see this but yet u still get people on here saying give him a break he’s the man 2 bring us forward yea all he’s done is hold us back,we was all over brum we should of won we had all the posession blah,blah,blah yes we had chances but we should of scored more to win we haven’t got the side because of rafa and his crap bargain basement signings that wouldn’t get into the liverpool reserves! the sooner he goes the quicker another new manager can come in and play better players and play them in there proper positions and motivate them from the touchline not all this HAND SIGNAL BOLLOCKS! that he does its gonna be a long haul up until the jan transfer window top of rafa’s list has to be a striker anything less then we have have had it although we already have with him in charge! rafa out!

Its comments like these that make me what to smack the hell out of rafa. “Benitiez defiant liverpool can still win the title”

Is he having a laugh? I think the best statements are those made on the pitch not after drawing to a crap side like birmingham. The sooner he faces facts that the team is rubbish without two players.

He can not blame this on injuries. He should blame it on his poor man managment skills and lack of ability in the transfer market that has left our team with only two star players.

Look at our bench. Its comedic i tell u.

The £20 million will have to be found – the ongoing consequences are too dire to consider – it has to be sorted – the Yanks will find the money to protect their investment.
Not matter how good he is going forward a fire sale on Glenn Johnson will raise the money – we have plenty of options for right back.
We cannot go on like this.

Spot on again otley your right we wont make the top 4 now if RB is in charge any longer the only thing that pisses me off is that he cant be sacked coz it will cost us 20m and the stubborn prick wont walk so we are in a no win situation its just gonna get worse the longer he is in charge he cant blame injuries 4 our plight every team has them but got the players to cope but not us coz he has spent the money on total shit players no point naming them we all know who they are and he still thinks not replacing keane would be ok and boy was we wrong we are finding it out now coz lets be honest voronin isnt even a reserve player let alone first team ngog has a hell of a lot to learn and is still to light weight el-zahr is just a total waste of space who hasnt played at all this season kuyt isnt a striker he’s forest gump! just puts his head down and keeps running with no effect the only striker we have is the great nando thats why its important 2 get a striker in january thats a priority end of… the way we been leaking goals lately it wouldn’t surprise me if rafa concentrated on the defence in jan window!?!
