I bet Liverpool fans wish they had owners like Gold and Sullivan now.
It CERTAINLY AINT AVRAM !!!!!!!!!!!
Nope, we're trying to get him to take 3M and run. If he said no, but was sacked, the 16M would only be paid if he didn't get a job within a year, and interest is high.
Our two tumours wanted to replace Benitez with Klinsmann six months after they took over Kris. I'm sure the board will be putting all kinds of names out for the armchair fans to reassure them. But the key criteria will be a man willing to see £127 million worth of talent divested from the playing side (whether in current players' salaries/transfer fees or future transfers/wages or a combination of both) into paying off the part of the RBS debt which isn't secured on the owners' assets. We'll end up with a mediocre manager who'll be a short-term fall guy when Benitez isn't around to blame for why the owners are asset stripping the club.
Not sure when reality will hit some of the numpties who claim to support Liverpool. Perhaps it never will. In honesty, I wish most of them would go support Chelsea or Spurs or Man City rather than pretend that they have any feeling for my club.
Personally, I have a lot of respect for Roy Hodgson. He's polite and is always very respectful towards Liverpool. He's done a lot in his career and should be applauded for going abroad when many English managers don't. But his style of football is the antithesis of what Liverpool have been about for nearly sixty years. Graham Taylor did it in a more entertaining way with Watford back in the 80s and he's also a decent football man who I respect. I wouldn't want him managing us either.
I was sure I read today that Liverpool came out and said the 3m figure was a lot of bull?
I agree with you completely. The wee German's name might pop back up?
I'm taking bets that the sell-off will start this summer and the board will blame Benitez initially as they already tried to do with their initial leak to Maddock at the Mirror.
How reliable is marca though really. XD
Weren't they the ones who had the interview with bernd schuster about how ronaldo would fit into the real madrid team and he didn't even end up leaving that summer or was that some other dodgy spanish newspaper.XD
I think maybe hodgson will get it.:$
you think reina would go as well? with rafa gone, mascherano is a dead cert to go, barca are eyeing up torres, and mourhino is virtually pawing at gerrard, it looks like a no brainer imo, but i'd hope im worngThey were right about Ronaldo though - the deal to sell him was done that summer even though he moved the one after.
They're reliable as Real Madrid's mouthpiece. If they're reporting it, it's likely that someone in the hierarchy there has told them. How true it is depends on how reliable their source is.

Marca reporting already that Gerrard sale will now go through for 30 million as the only obstacle to the deal was Rafa and the only obstacle to the price was Benitez wanting to haggle for more like he did with Alonso.

Silly, silly muppets who wanted him out.

Can you really beileve a Spanish Newspaper? it is a Madrid based paper, used to promote Madrid. It has clearly seen a opening to stirr up more trouble. i know you are angry and furious, which i would be, but this paper cant be trusted. It has reported numerous BS stories over the years, Rooney to Madrid, Fabregas to Madrid, it also said they had agreed to sign Ribery( just signed a new long term deal with bayern) and Villa( signed for barca.)
I honestly thought Gerrard would of been off if Rafa stayed, no i am not so sure.
As I said, Marca are Real Madrid's mouth piece and I'd never trust them during a Madrid presidential election when every player of any note is touted as a signing by the various candidates.
It's not a secret that Madrid are sniffing around Gerrard. What's interesting about that story is the angle they're taking about why it's now more likely to happen this summer.
i just think that angle is rubbish, it was just an oppurtunity to sell a story, only reason there is a hold up with any transfer, is The World Cup, Capello isnt going to let any of his players, discuss a move with any club during the next 5 weeks or so. They why Milner hasnt left yet, Cole has got a club yet and gerrard hasnt sorted his future. Just Paper ****.
