Before you make statements like Raffa`s time is up.... Ask yourself who will take his place.... IF you reply to this post consider realistically good replacements.

I bet no one can make a realistic suggestion.... Given the current climate!.... Just list the name of the replacement manager and we will see who gets the most counts!

Personally I think Raffa should stay Liverpool supports are the best in the world, even when the club is going through bad times,

SO let`s SEE WHO CAN MAKE A realistic suggestion.... !

NO SUGGESTION YET?

Rafa should stay. It's a combination of terrible ownership (the two american owners won't even talk to each other), injury crisis, key members leaving pre-season, terrible luck (beach ball, last minute equalisers) and some strange decisions (subbing off benayoun)

Overall Benitez is a fantastic manager and all true Liverpool fans know this

Sacking Rafa is not the solution of our problems. I agree he is making mistakes like everyone else do

Rafa did a lot of right things before the wrong things came to him.

We have to be grateful that he brought back King Kenny, look @ our reserves, they are doing well atm, he realizes the seriousness of the situation, he needed youth, he got the best man to settle that for him.

Remember before he came, we weren't actually the "TOP 4". He just set the bar too high for himself having 86 points last season, unbeaten at home (Heaven). We expect him to win the league, expect him to do this and that. Chill out he is just a man, he is not a God.

As for as where we are going, wait for the injuries to get cleared out. I am sure we are going to the right direction. He is a capable man just out of luck. As for the return of the glory days, I am still waiting for the kingdom to build in Anfield as it is in heaven

Stay rafa. If he leaves, he would most likely go to real madrid where with the money and support of the owners will do magic and possibley win the champions league in a few seasons, please rafa don't go

Wow, this is the only sane place i've found on this website. Ant you got it right. A combination of a lot of things, most beyond Rafa's control are resulting in what we are seeing. Patience is needed

Wait.... This is actually a discussion? You can't sack rafa. That'd be the beginning of a snowball effect that would ruin liverpool for the next few seasons, I think. But then again, it's not like Hicks or Gillette are doing much to help out

Well said Drivenovearly, as I said before for a long time Raffa has not had much of a say over who came to the club, now I think it is different, I think he has more controll over which players come to the club.... The Fact is to be an outstanding manager you must have the backing of the club.... Hicks and the other fella wanted Klingsman to take the job then Istanbul, put lay to that move.

I hope next year we can sort all this rubbish out and get the team the supporters want!

One of the conditions Shankly took over at liverpool was that he had the say as to which played for the club and which players put on the RED`s shirt. I hope Raffa now has that power and not a Director of Football

My suggestion is that let Rafa stay the rest of the season if we didn't qualify to the Champions League then has to go. There is no excuse for loosing our spot to Aston Villa, Tottenham, or Man City

We would be the biggest fool to sack him, why can't people see what he has achieved and doing with our young players. Give him 3 more years and we will be winning nearly everything. Good things happens to people who wins
