Klinsmann coy on new Reds rumours
Jurgen Klinsmann has played a straight bat to the latest reports that he is to replace under-fire Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez at Anfield..

The 108-time Germany international has long been linked with the Reds and the club's co-owner Tom Hicks has admitted holding talks in the past.
Benitez signed a new long-term contract before the start of the current season, but speculation has suggested that the ex-Valencia boss' almost five-year tenure could soon end.
Liverpool have been dumped out of the UEFA Champions League group stages and are off the pace in the Premier League, renewing speculation that Klinsmann could replace Benitez.
But the German said in Bild: "There are always rumours."
Klinsmann does not want to return to club management in Germany and has indicated that he could make a move abroad before next season.
He said: "For us it is relatively clear. We will not embark on another adventure in the Bundesliga.
"After the World Cup, I will possibly be somewhere else."

"all the people calling for rafa to be sacked will be the demise of our club."

"Klinsmann??? The father of all cheaters (divers)!!! maybe he's good for liverpool cause he can teach ngog how to dive CLEANLY. ~LUHG~"
threadonaspool (Liverpool fan)
"unbiased; I could spend £225 million buying and selling the same player, doesnt mean i have the chance to improve my team. ONLY Net Spend is what counts. Rafa has a net spend of £90 million over 5 years. This is not enough to rebuild an average team and turn them into title challengers (especially in todays environment). We've been closer to the title every season, thats progress and thats fact. We have improved upon every position in the team apart from Hyypia at CB. Again thats progress and fact. To say your unbiased but havent mentioned what I have mentioned is BS. Your probably a Utd fan trying to turn us against the best thing thats happened liverpool FC in years. We might not win the league this year but we will finish above Utd and Arsenal. Thats not fact but it will be come May. YNWA!!!"

"Rell1gunna (Arsenal fan). Yeah and every manager who gets the vote of confidence gets the sack! Point is Rafa has been backed, he signesd a 5 year deal a few months ago, I doubt he'll be sacked!"

"I would rather have ex real madrid manager vincente del bosque than klinsman. Vincente won the title and came runner up in the champions league with real madrid and was rewarded by getting sacked. "

"real_socialdad - the difference between plans and dreams are whether the progress and steps or improvement involved. At the moment the stadium has no progress apart from some drawings quite a while ago and a few promises. Sounds more like a dream to me."

"I just wonder if this will revive the idea of a ground share with Liverpool on Stanley Park.
I know Liverpool are set against this, but if both clubs had pressed ahead with the idea when it was mooted a few years ago, then they would both be enjoying the benefits of the extra revenue now.
As it is, Liverpool are stuck in their 44,000 capacity Anfield and have not turned a sod at Stanley Park, while Everton are back to square one in their search.
I know some fans will say 'we don't want to share with that lot', but, come on, it's 2009 and this would be a sensible way forward."

"Rijkaard or Gullit should replace Benitez. Not Klinsmann. I don't support Rafa, but if we are to have a new manager, Klinsi is not the man for us. "

"redG, one of the joys of not having a team means I'm not blinkered like 95% of other supporters. If that means I'm stupid, then so be it. "
