Liverpool crash out of Champions League

Money worries build for the Anfield club

Rafa Benitez knows what he is doing. By rights, many within the club should be thinking of calling for his head but given the current financial state of the club, can they afford to sack him?

He has a contract to run and it just cant be ignored. Obviously he is not just going to resign so if the men in charge want a change; it is going to cost them cash. And filthy lucre is one thing that Liverpool don’t have at the moment.

The injury list has been pretty horrific but if you are going to act like Rafa Benitez and waste a lot of money on squad players and players lacking in sufficient quality then injuries will bite you on the bum.

For all that Benitez has spent in charge of the Scouse reds; they are still a two man team.

Without Torres and Gerrard, they are ordinary with even one of these two missing causing a huge deficit in the team.

Liverpool did what they had to do tonight. A 1-0 win in Hungary over Debrecen was the minimum they could do but the result in Italy went against them.
Lyon would have felt it was better to eliminate Liverpool, so it was no surprise to see Fiorentina triumph 1-0 to knock the Scousers out of the Champions League into the Europa League.

Liverpool will need to dust themselves off and there is no reason why they cant win the Europa Cup.

Whether Rafa Benitez is in charge will be an entirely different matter.
