Dont get me wrong, I am behind 100% Benitez.
But Hypothetically speaking, If Benitez walked out tomorrow, and we were manager-less, any Kenny put himself forward for the job, Do you think he could cut it again?
With an older and wiser head on his shoulders?
If not Kenny, who would be you're ideal manager to take the job? Hypothetically speaking.

I think Kenny would do a fine job, but as you have mentioned we are behind Rafa.

I really want to see Gary Mcallister get into full time managament somewhere. I think he will be a very good manager and a possibiltiy for the future.

I'm not so sure about Dalglish the manager. I`ll probably become an unpopular figure on here after saying this but Dalglish's only true test a manager came at Newcastle and he was shocking. When he took over at Liverpool he knew the players, the team had already gelled and had been successful at the highest level for quite sometime. He had a stint at Blackburn and won the League, but that was down to the millions pumped into Blackburn. Of course he played a role in that success but he had unlimited funds to spend on who he wished.

agreed. Kenny was a great manager for us...but when the pressure got high...he got out.
I was so disapointed when Kenny stepped down, but that was then and i don't think he's capable of being a great manager again.
He failed at Newcastle and Celtic and i'd be surprised if he managed another club ever again.

Some of what you say is true, especially about Newcastle, but although Jack Walker pumped millions into Blackburn, Dalglish still did a great job with them.... The only real superstar they bought was Shearer..... What he did do was realise the potential in a lot of players, Sherwood, Sutton, Batty, Hendry, Wilcox, Ripley, Newell..... Hardly world beaters most of them but Dalglish achieved what Allardyce and O'Neill seem to be able to do.... Make them into a team!

Kenny? Are we being serious. We got to stop living in the past poeple. Kenny was good but his times gone, as has his way.
I think if if we could have anyone in the world... Rafa Benitez

Unbelievable suggestion, Keane will never manage at the highest level IMO. When the going gets tough he will really struggle.

Can't see past Rafa. I don't care what kind of temporary blip we're having, I'm not going to talk about my opinions on his tactics or our 'aways' losing streak. The man is worth his weight in trophies he's going to deliver and HAS delivered.
No one, not Capello, Mourinho, Scolari, Rijkaard, none of them would be a suitable replacement for Benitez. He has my full and entire support as manager of Liverpool.
Be grateful for what we've got because nothing lasts forever and one day for whatever reason he'll go and unless he builds a dynasty like Shankly, promoting his lieutenants, the only way is downwards.
He brought the best night of my life to me back in May 2005 and Dalglish doesn't come into the managerial equation for me any longer. I know he offered his services towards the end of Houllier's time or the beginning of Benitez's reign but he was not needed. It's Benitez or nobody for me.

I am happy with Rafa and think he will eventually get Liverpool back where we belong on top of the league. I would like to see Dalglish back in some capacity though.....maybe if the rumours are true, as Academy director? He always took a great interest in the young players when he was manager, (not in a bad way! ) and the young players would certainly respect him.
