Rafa Benitez
Keane returns to Spurs

Robbie Keane has returned to Spurs after just half a season that has promised so much, but delivered so little. Following a dream move to Liverpool, which Robbo has supported as a young lad, he didn’t manage to win Rafa’s favour and probably saved his career from further anguish by moving back to Spurs.

Dearest Liverpool Offside readers, sorry for being MIA. Was on a 9 day leave from work, and Rock Band is taking over my life
While one Rafa bagged the Australian Open title, the other Rafa scored a league double against Chel$ki, a feat last achieved in 1990. After drawing way too many games, dropping points unnecessarily [...]

Following the high of our win at St James’ Park, Rafa rested Benayoun, Lucas, Kuyt & Reina. Replacing them in the starting lineup are Keane, Riera, Alonso & Cavalieri between the posts.
Gerrard was played following his little run-in with the law and produced yet another composed display.
Keane wasted another hatfull of chances as usual and [...]
Liverpool 1 Marseille 0: Unconvincing but does the job
By: Nadia | 5 Comments
Rafa finally learns how to pronounce ‘dilemma’, some Marseille fans are morons and clearly, we have a goal-scoring crisis
CSD was spot-on when he predicted a narrow score-line for Wednesday’s Matchday 5 encounter with French side, Olympique de Marseille. Nevertheless, this “scary” win qualifies the Reds to the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League tournament [...]
UCL Matchday 4: Liverpool 1 Atletico Madrid 1
By: Nadia | 13 Comments
It was a boring match until the last 4 minutes of stoppage time, which saw a questionable penalty given to Liverpool (Fine by me, we’ll take the draw) and 4 yellow cards.
If we hadn’t scored, I would probably started off by saying Liverpool was shite. Nando’s former club outplayed us, and though we had most [...]

I wanted to take a minute to talk a little bit about Rafa Benitez. Such a great manager and inspiration he has been for this club. He’s delivered the Champions League, the FA Cup, but now faces another challenge, the league. For many [...]
Manager for a Day: Who would you choose?

With the silly season in full swing, I wanted to have everyone put on their fake Rafa mask for one second (the goateed or non-goateed version is up to you) and pretend that you’re in the Spaniard’s shoes.
We know Rafa was given a current budget of £20 million from Hicks and Gillett to use [...]
Liverpool’s Most Dangerous Man
By: CSD | 1 Comment
Little Fernando turned 30 over the weekend. They grow up so fast. *sniff* That’s 30 goals, not 30 years. At this point the £26 million to bring him over is seems like a bargain. So you might think, “This is going to be another we all have man crushes on [...]
Merseyside Derby!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, when our neighbors, Everton, come to visit at Anfield. In the first meeting, LFC squeaked out a win at Goodison Park 1-2. You might remember the controversial switch when Rafa took out Steven Gerrard because he was playing with “too much passion.” Hopefully, Stevie [...]
The Pressure is On
By: CSD | 3 Comments
I have mixed feelings when it comes to Rafa. On one hand, he did get us to two Champions League finals in three years, on the other, he does silly things that keeps us at #4 (or worse) and gets us knocked out of the FA Cup.
