Absolute class from the fella. Didn't need to be there, but wanted to. He holds Liverpool close to his heart.. Dearly...
Probably... Hard to say, I wrekon he would of done a better job with our defence. But whether the football would of been as clinical or entertaining as we have seen at times, I'm not so sure..
Would he have got us top 4 with the current squad
He got us the CL with a similar squadHe couldn't get us 6th with a much better squad and far less competition in 90/10 so the answer is no.

The squad was crap our best XI was great. But if you remember, we missed a few of those players during the tournament.The Rafa that did that died a long time ago and that squad had players the current squad could only dream of,
Hyypia, Carra, Riise, Alonso, Gerrard, Garcia,

Dude we started a game with fucking LeTallec and in another game Pongolle and Mellor had to bail us out.
No, he wouldn't, but I also doubt that we'd have the same squad with Rafa in charge.No doubt it was a success built on defence with Hamann and Finnan to.
But the question was would Rafa get this squad 4th, I doubt he would.
We'll batter them easily 5-0No, he wouldn't, but I also doubt that we'd have the same squad with Rafa in charge.
Another thing, we haven't finished fourth yet. Still need a win against Boro.
There's no real point comparing and doing 'what ifs'
Different styles, times and teams
Benitez won a European Cup. Until Klopp delivers that, or a league title, he'll never be a better Liverpool manager than him
Roberto Di Matteo won the CL as a manager, and he's terrible. Just saying!
