Benitez not happy with Fergie

ah well the Liverpool FC Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread was made for a reason and it wasnt because when there is big news from liverpool a another thread would be made

em, thats exactly the way it works. big news, major signings etc get their own thread, smaller gossip and day to day stuff goes into the superthread.

ok here is my post from the other thread.

If every Liverpool fan isn't behind rafa at this stage then i don't think it will never happen!
tbh i enjoyed every second of that press conference.

i don't understand where benitez contradicts himself like everyone seems to be saying.. if someone can find an example please tell me.

Also for the people who are saying that we have never been in this position before and there was no need for this extra pressure. As has been said he is deflecting the pressure from the players onto himself and i believe it shows the belief he has in his team that he is willing to put his reputation on the line.

So i say fair play to rafa. He's made my friday better!

btw i hope he doesn't get in trouble over these comments

TBH I think fair play to Rafa for having the balls to come out and say what he thinks BUT I think calling him Mr is disrespectful and makes him look a little silly

This is all about the Respect campaign after all.
Karma, Fergie shows no respect, he gets no respect.

He's doing it intentionally. Just having a little poke, if you will?

Well Sir Alex imo as someone who doesn't like Utd has deserved the title of Sir and it doesn't do Rafa any favours to disrespect him by calling him Mr

Rafa is from Spain.

I'm from Ireland and I have no love for the queen or the titles she hands out but Sir Alex has earned a title and I would out of respect to him call him Sir if I was to meet or address him.

What?

read imo as "in my opinion", although you have a point my use of the English language in that post was rather messy

So would Rafa, I'm sure!? Haven't you ever heard of "gamesmanship"? He's just winding it up a little...........no harm in it.

Oh I agree and as I said fair play to Rafa but I think he let himself down by using Mr rather than Sir, just my opinion

oh yea, thats a pic of the man who has won the last number of titles for you.

Yea, ya dont see him round much anymore do you?

And here's the man who won all Liverpool's recent Premiership titles..

This is a brilliant thread IMO rafa trying to beat fergie at his own game can't wait for red noses response ( or is there anyone left he will give an interview to) should be good this is it now lads to the end of the season. Think there should be a sticky thread man utd - Liverpool bitchfest so we can go at each other without derailing other threads

As for calling fergie sir would you ever feck off because some royal ponse pot gives him a title

You say the same about Sir Bob Geldof?

I would'nt call him "Sir" or "Bob". I'd call him "Scruffy F***er"!

Ah they're just bitter it's not Sir Rafa.

Actually I think it would have been even better if he went one further and called him Mr. Sir Alex - implying that he thought the Sir was just a first name or something. Love Rafa for doing this all the same.

"Mr Sir Alex". LOL
