>>152537140When Rafa was at his peak at Liverpool, the team looked absolutely serious. People tend to downplay this because of Klopp and how everything ended with the Gareth Barry crap (along with Rafa subsequently shitting himself at Madrid).However that midfield pairing of Mascherano-Alonso-Gerrard is the best midfield Liverpool has ever produced, José Reina won more Golden Gloves than Alisson and Torres was on fire.He took that shit Liverpool team in 2005 to the most remarkable CL Final ever, then built up the squad to become a proper, competitive candidate for the PL.It was the four positions on the wings that fucked him over (along with the Robbie Keane debacle). Klopp was clearly much better in this regard, and the only Rafa-era winger that came close was Dirk Kuyt.I made a thread on here maybe a year ago, about Liverpool's best 21st Century matchday squad and I was accused of being overly-nostalgic for including a lot of Rafa's players. The fact of the matter is that when his squad were at their peak, they were just that good.
>Football is made up of subjective feeling, of suggestion - and, in that, Anfield is unbeatable. Put a shit hanging from a stick in the middle of this passionate, crazy stadium and there are people who will tell you it's a work of art. It's not: it's a shit hanging from a stick.
Top 100 maybe? Certainly way below Ferguson, Clough, Robson, Ancelotti, Sacchi, Lippi, Herrera, Wenger, Cúper, Bilardo, Houllier, Klopp, Hitzfeld, etc.

Just to illustrate how influential Benitez was in the revival of Liverpool, this is the best XI of the 21st Century.
