Managers show Rafa some love
Under-fire Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has received support from fellow EPL managers Harry Redknapp and Carlo Ancelotti as he fights for his position at Anfield. Liverpool have experienced a torrid season, and look set for their fourth successive year without a trophy. Many fans and former club legends have been calling for his head in recent weeks. Said Tottenham boss Redknapp: "The man's record is fantastic and he doesn't need advice off me. Last year, Liverpool were fantastic and they're capable of being fantastic again and Benitez knows that - he's a top, top manager.” Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti said he had no doubt Benitez was the best man for the Anfield job. "I consider Rafa Benitez to be one of the best coaches in the world," said the Italian. "He has done a fantastic job and he has the quality to continue to do that job."
