Just thinking back to when Hodgson was appointed and King Kenny was overlooked...Hodgson didn't stand a chance, he was never going to get full support. And that had an effect on the team.
How many managers being mentioned, other than Rafa, could avoid the same outcome? The moment there is a bad result, Anfield will be shaking to 'Rafa, Rafa-el, Rafa, Rafa-el, Rafa, Rafe-el, Rafa-el Benitez'.
I mean, really, you're looking at someone like Pep Guardiola...and that's about it.
How many times has it been said, "In Rafa we trust"? Because it is TRUE.
FSG want success. So do we. Appoint Rafa.
FSG want to jeopardise their 'investment' by not having the crowd on-side. Don't appoint Rafa.
