Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez will be offered a 3 million-pound compensation deal to quit the Premier League club, British media reported on Thursday.SportsBenitez's agent Manuel Garcia Quilon was quoted on the BBC (www.bbc.co.uk) as saying he would speak to the Spaniard.Benitez joined the club in 2004 and led them to the Champions League title in 2005 and the FA Cup a year later.But he has been under increasing pressure at Liverpool, who finished seventh in the Premier League standings last season.The 50-year-old has been linked with a move to Juventus and Inter Milan but said last month he intended to see out his contract at Liverpool which runs until 2014.
So reading between the lines it probably means no manager = the Yanks sell Gerrard and Torres to lower thier debts, put in a new manager with very little money to spend, and mid table mediocrity to follow
Fcuk, I wanted him to sign a new 10 year contract extension so that we would have more years like this past one to watch the fool waste money that they dont have on average players

My sentiments exactly,now we going to have all over the summer ''The victims manager saga''.
I ve read a lot of crap in the papers and now its got even worse. Now that they cant write everyday about Cesc they have gone mad and turned to Rafa. 1. Rafa is on holiday AND 2. A formal "sacking" would require LFC to pay the full compensation package of £16m... So please stop talking nonsense as anyone with even a basic understanding of contract law will know that some of these rumours are unfounded and that the only thing that could be taking place is: 1. Inter contacted LFC to express interest in Rafa but indicated that they would be unwilling to pay compensation to LFC, and 2. The LFC board and senior players would like Rafa to leave and SO a compensation package is being prepared to present to Rafa as an honorable way to depart the managership of LFC...This does NOT indicate that Rafa has accepted the package or that he will leave...talks are precisely that...TALKS

But that is exactly what is being reported, so which bit is the 'crap' and 'nonsense' part?
