Liverpool just lost 4 games on the trot. They have their two main (only) players sidelined with injuries, and no viable replacements. They are financially hamstrung and they're losing support every second.
What to do? Well the answer is simple, and it's been coming for quite some time: GET RID OF RAFA. This might finally be the season that does it. If Liverpool bounce out of the Champions League Group Stage and into the Europa League, Rafa will get the chop. And good riddance.
Everything about this guy is fucking ridiculous. His inane rotation policy? Why? What purpose does it serve except to destabilize those players with a decent run of form?
Positioning formations? Who the fuck puts Fabio Aurelio as a defensive midfielder? What is this guy thinking? And for that matter, why does he insist on playing with wingers when nobody on the team is a natural wide-man? Why not try the Christmas tree formation, with Benayoun and Kuyt supporting Torres, and Gerrard, Mascherano, and Lucas anchoring the base of the tree? Seems like it would fit better.
The transfer market - except for Torres and Mascherano, Rafa hasn't done shit. Robbie Keane? Useless. Getting rid of Peter Crouch? Why? Buying Glen Johnson and letting Xabi Alonso go? I don't think he's quite the replacement you were looking for. Let's see how Aquilani does.
Rafa is a terrible manager. Liverpool have been getting by on the strength of their players for far too long, but that's starting to fade quickly. Get rid of him and bring in someone who knows what the fuck they're doing. Now.
