:love: Well in Rafa you deserve it more than anyone, what a lovely honour for you to have, now you have one over on everyone :buttrock
And great to see you will ignore Real if they come knocking.

RAFA: I'M HAPPY HERE AND GOING NOWHERE
Paul Eaton 21 September 2005 
  Rafael Benitez has again moved to quash speculation that could soon quit Anfield and take over as Real Madrid manager. 
One newspaper has this week linked Benitez with a move to the Bernabeu as pressure grows on current Madrid boss Wanderley Luxemburgo who has just watched his side lose three games in a row.
 
Benitez, however, has dismissed the claims that he could be heading for a return to Spain and once again insisted he is more than happy with his job at Liverpool.
 
He told Liverpoolfc.tv: "At this moment I am very happy here. I am focused on the games we have coming up and I want to win things with my club.
 
"I don't want to waste my time talking about other possibilities. I am focused on my team, winning matches and I am happy at Liverpool."
 
Benitez, meanwhile, is celebrating being named 'Best Coach in Europe' at a prestigious awards ceremony in Italy earlier this week.
 
The Liverpool boss was in Udinese to receive the award and immediately dedicated it to everyone at Anfield.
 
He said: "I am delighted to have been named the best coach in Europe, but this award isn't for me. It's for the club, my staff, the players and our supporters. It's impossible to win trophies and be successful if you don't have the support of people around you at the club."
There is no-one anywhere in the world at any stage who is any bigger or any better than this football club.

I'd say the 'special one' wasn't too happy with Rafa getting the award he deserves  :D

Udinese


Well the same way I could not receive an award in Aston Villa, he can't be in Udinese. The actual city is Udine, me thinks.

Anyway nice post, thank you.

Well done Raffa and thouroughly deserved!
His tactics last season in C/L were perfect every game.Great to see some recognition of a brilliant 1st season.
So now all the jealous fu.ckers can stick they're pathetic jibes up they're holes!
saying we were lucky:angry:
Great to see he's staying as well.Cant understand any manager wanting to get involved in Madrids politics,especially Raffa,he knows he's got it good where he's at!!

Good news!

Never thought he would go to Madrid despite the recent rumours, so hopefully all this will put those scare-mongering fans' minds at rest.  Benitez is going nowhere for a good few years.

He definitely deserves that.  Let's be honest, we're far from the best team in europe ON PAPER, so what he achieved last season was remarkable.  Tactically outwitted most of the supposed top coaches including Ancellotti, Capello and Mourinho last season.  Superb :buttrock

Players come and go
Fans come and go, some come back as fair weather, other as time permitted.
Managers come and go
That is the nature of any games.

However LFC is to stay, been proven time and time again, despite some great times and some rough times.

Job well done RB, hope you stay, but only if your heart truely in it.
