Yes, HUGE gulf - FACT.

Simplely a matter of opinion.

I think a few people should be more careful what they say about our next manager

[Lando_Griffin]

So Houllier winning our first European trophy for nearly two decades was easier than Benitez winning our first European trophy for nearly 5 years?

There isn't a great deal of difference between the two. Houllier's achievement shouldn't be knocked down just to make Benitez' look better. Houllier's victory in the UEFA Cup is just as important as anything else this club have achieved in Europe. The UEFA Cup is the platform for the European Cup. If you don't believe me, look at this:

Liverpool win the UEFA Cup in 73, four years later win the European Cup in 77
Liverpool win the UEFA Cup in 01, four years later win the European Cup in 05

Don't be such a f*cking silly tart. Of course it was easier!

Does a win in the UEFA Cup somehow diminish the difficulty of the Champions' League 5 years later?

As for the "Liverpool win UEFA in '73" b*llocks - how about being sensible for a change?

I take it you genuinely thought we won in Istanbul because it coincided with Ken and Deadrie's f*cking wedding?

So when we won the UEFA Cup in 2001, we didn't play the time's greatest football side in Barcelona?
So when we won the UEFA Cup in 2001, we didn't have to battle against one of Italy's giants in Roma?
So when we won the UEFA Cup in 2001, we didn't conceed four goals in the final, but in the European Cup it was only three...that mean Alaves were a better attacking side than Milan? Afterall our defence in 01 was better than 05. Hyypia and Carragher in both, so it comes down to Babbel or Finnan, Babbel all day and Henchoz or Traore....well we all know Hencoz was a top defender.

Huge gulf eh?

Sorry Lando, but you've already got that title.

Coronation Street.

There was a massive list of coincidences between '05 and the other dates we won the EC.

That was one of them.

Well thankfully I have better things to do with my time than watch Corrie.

Maybe you should do the same, then you'd see Benitez for what he's doing to this club, bringing us down.

Shall we put that to the vote?

Me supporting Rafa, or you believing the UEFA cup win of Ged to be "no easier" than the CL win of Rafa?

I don't believe anyone other than peewee, Heimdall and The Rock will be voting for me in THAT particular poll (And that's only because they're all knuckle-draggers... )

Do what you want mate, either way you'll never see the UEFA Cup glory of 2001 as anything because it wasn't your precious Benitez who won it was it.

I don't watch Coro lad.

And perhaps if you reviewed the situation, you'd realise that no amount of impatience and foot-stomping will alter the fact that this season's failure isn't down to Rafa on the whole.

No it's not down to Benitez on his own. But he's the main problem, and has been all season.

It's the truth Lando. Anything Houllier achieved you do your upmost to make it look less worhty than it was.

Yet Benitez, even if we win a game you're straight in there with the praises.
