Former Liverpool Greats Back Benitez


According to an article from the associated press, Liverpool greats Ian Rush and Kenny Dalglish are supporting Reds manager Rafa Benitez in his public dispute with the club's owners, Tom Hicks and George Gillett Jr.

This comes out as part of the backlash against the new owners after it was released that they had pursued Juergen Klinsmann to replace Rafa as manager.

"After the fans showed their support for Rafa the last time, I would not be surprised if there was another show of support for the man at the game against Luton," Dalglish said. "I think fans will be very disappointed and frustrated. I don't think they have ever had this before. I think Rafa's reputation was reflected in the support the punters gave him."
