and Viera is well past it. Then again Rafa might be desperate enough to try anything.

I think it's obvious to anyone that Benitez is way out of his depth at Liverpool. His tactics, formations and choice of players tell that quite clearly. He's been in England long enough to have learned the ropes but he has failed miserably.

One CL trophy does not denote a great manager. Consistantly achieving goals is what denotes a great manager. Benetiz can't cut it in our league. He is as green as the day he arrived.

You've only got to ask yourself one question. Have Liverpool improved under Benitez or have Liverpool got increasingly worse with each season. Exactly.

No point in pointing out that Liverpool finished second in the league last season either, because that was down to their main rivals experiencing in house problems and turmoil that had nothing to do with Liverpool. They reached second place by default and not on merit.

Then again is second place really something to boast about?

You can point in all directions to many reasons to attempt to deflect any blame from Benitez, but it is a fact that Benitez is still one of Liverpools problems. I hope he stays because that will make it all the easier for the rest of us.

The CL was his saving grace, and now he can't even qualify for the CL. As far as the league has been concerned he has never been a threat to anyone either in the years he has been at Liverpool.

So I don't expect Rafa to ever win the League. Now there is no CL this season either, and what happens if Liverpool do not make a top 4 finish this season?

Before this club falls to pieces completely Benetiz has to go. Anyone replacing him would be an improvement wouldn't they?

I do feel sorry for my Liverpool supporting mates but apart from that, Liverpools demise doesn't bother me one little bit. To be honest after all the crap we've put up with from Liverpool over the years, I'm actually enjoying watching them self harm.

Now they can experience some of the pain that the rest of us had to swallow when we were not as rich as Liverpool and League survival was our main concern, and all the while we had the richest teams in the League taking the p1ss as we struggled to survive. I remember those years vividly. Which is why I just cannot feel any sympathy for Liverpool now.

Karma is a wonderful thing.

I don't think we can convince any of the proven winners in the Premier League to manage Liverpool. Maybe Mourinho, but that's a long shot. Hiddink did well at Chelsea, and with Russia out of next year's World Cup he may be interested...

I agree with your post except with THAT...We reached 2nd spot on merit, you can´t blame on the others teams problems, is like i can say Manchester U. finished 1st because they were lucky.

BTW..If we don´t look at this season, i think we have improved since Benitez arrived. He made us a Force in Europe in recent years, though it is all over now.

PS: We won the derby 0-2, not a a bad game...:)

I am finding it very hard to continue watching the Champions League......it will take some time before I decide to watch the games again.

Tied on points with Birmingham!

A shame Brum's doing well. That's just embarassing.

Mind, 13 points off the top is not THAT much. It's possible the top temas will waste 13 points along the way. The thing is, so will you.

It's like 2002. Exactly like 2002. Leading up to that season we finished 5th, 4th, 3rd and 2nd. In 2002-2003 we finished 5th when many people predicted that we'd win the league.

We just need to keep fighting. That's all we can do.....win the games we're supposed to win and don't worry if we get zero points against the big 3.

That´s the key to get at least the 4th spot this season....

You were robbed lads. That "tackle" (for want of a better word) by Gallas on Gerrard was a stone wall penalty. You have Howard Webb to thank for that. You think he had a bad game at Anfield? You should have seen what he did to us at City.

Losing a game is one thing, but having the ref decide the score is outrageous.

He definitely touches him, but Gerrard had already started to fall down, and was never going to get to the ball. Actually, had Gerrard maintained control of the ball, it would've been a clean tackle.

Yeah.. but hey. After that N'gogg ( I think it was him) dive a few weeks back that gave them a last minute penalty. I think that pretty much evens itself out. So they are were they need to be.

We can't rely on referee decisions to win matches. We already squeaked a CL that way, now we need that to finish top 4..... Terrible.....

Don't be upset guys! Portsmouth is a very good team and they will make harsh times to other big teams, i'm sure.They deserve much more than the actual table position.
