Rafa - His future at Liverpool uncertain?

Well seeing as they are out of the Premiership title race, the Carling Cup, 1 win out 9 games, probably out of the Champions League, (can't see Lyon doing Liverpool any favours)

A trophy less season and perhaps Rafa will be shown the door? However, considering Rafa is tied down for a few years and he's massive backroom staff - This will cost Liverpool in the region of £20 mill plus to sack him... Would the Owners be prepared to pay this? Considering they have a few months to find the money they owe to the banks? :eusa_whis

Uncertain future for the Kops. :(

Shouldn't fire him. Can see them getting through in the CL. Might win the FA cup. A trophy-less season isn't disasterous. We've had 4 of them in a row but never lost faith with Arsene. Not compairing Liverpool and Rafa and Arsene with Arsenal as you can't but 1 season without trophies isn't the end of the world.

I can't seem them getting through the CL tbh. There might be a chance Lyon will face Liverpool in the knock out stages... would they want to this to happen? I doubt that very much, they would wanna progress through the competition as far as they possibly can. So i'm sure they will be doing Florientina a favour by making them win.

Liverpool are in financial trouble, (like most Clubs) :rolleyes: but the differnce is, many of these Clubs don't have to pay back so much until a certain date, Liverpool on the other hand, have literally a few months to pay the banks not thousands... Were talking MILLIONS here, if they don't qualify to the knock out stages it will be disatroous for them. If Rafa's in charge by January, and this is the case, he won't have much to spend, perhaps nothing.

How much do Clubs like Liverpool, United Chelsea get for qualifying? Millions, (10 million the figure) so for them not to qualify would be a huge failure for them, hence why they can't afford this to be the case come the final at Debrecen.

Rafa has done himself no favors. £200 Million and can anyone really say, he's made a team? Not really. He doesn't even have decent back up strikers FGS! :P When Gerrard's out, there's no one at Liverpool atm who can match up to his role, the one person who was that but has now gone was Alonso. Having spent £200 million, and no one to cover.. that's just a joke, seriously.

United and Arsenal on the other hand.... :) Arsenal in the space of perhaps 4 years, maybe less have produce a world class team. You have to give credit to Arsenal and Arsene, the amount of money they had over the years to bring a team together compared to Chelsea and Liverpool is unbelievable.

Rafa has spent an average of 16.5 mil per season. Unlike man u, liverpool have to sell to buy.

Who cares if they spent £18.78 a season. (:P) Were talking about Rafa's £200 million spending spree while he's been in charge at Liverpool.

If you compared the £200 million compared to what Arsene has spent while Rafa's been in charge then it would be a HUGE difference. I don't know the "exact" figures but the difference could be near a £100 mill in difference.

It might have taken him ages to get a decent team together since the era of Viera, Henry, Freddie, Dennis but he's certainly there in terms of the quality he has in his team. He's spent a lot lot less than you lot and has still managed to produce a quality team.

He also has decent BACK UP PLAYERS... :P unlike some. :
