Who agree's with my Liverpool theory?

Do you think the players have just had enough of Rafa Benitez like some of the fans and have decided to perform poorly to justify him getting the boot from the Kop?

I'm a gooner and in no way care what is happening at Anfield, just logically speaking this could explain why last seasons contenders for the top are racing to the bottom of the table to join Newcastle.

    Wether they like him or not i have no idea, but the real reason they are playing poorly is they do not have as good players as the other top teams bar Torres, Gerrard, Mascherano and Reina who would walk into any team in the world, the rest are really pretty average.

    Just look at the team yesterday vs Sunderland, Sunderland had the stronger starting players, and the result was by no means a shock.

    Why would the Liverpool players jeopardise their place in the top four just to get back at Benitez, it doesn't make sense. Surely if they were unhappy with Benitez, then the club captain Steven Gerrard would have a quiet word with assistant manager Sammy Lee or first team coach Mauricio Pellegrino about it. I blame this fiasco of vonal marking for a lot of the goals that Liverpool concede, particularly from set pieces obviously.

    no,they just Not good enough as a club all over from the playing staff to management rotten to the core and you have to feel sorry for the supporters from a once a great club to a laughing stock.Benitez was in such a hurry to sell Keane but won't sell gerrard who to me is the reason why liverpool are going backwards,they could have got top money for him a few years ago and he could have rebuilt a new team instead he buys mediocre players so that gerrard will always be missed or made to look good .

    Interesting point. I think some of the players want him to go. No way they would play bad on purpose, it ruins the chance of getting a call up from their international manager. They will probably complain to the chairman instead.

    I am no fan of theirs either, but to say they are "racing to the bottom of the table" is just a wee bit over the top.

    That would be a horrible thing to do.

    Trying to get him sacked by costing the Club points.

    You may have a very good point! ...the players probably have their own hidden agenda.
