Liverpool legend Bruce Grobbelaar says
Rafa Benitez has wrecked his old
club.
The Anfield hero is fuming with Benitez for splashing out
£248million and leaving the club in a mess – a “sinking ship”.
Grobbelaar said: “The Liverpool ship has been rocking because
the person who left has spent £248m and look at the players we have
got.
“As a Liverpool fan, I’m really sick
that this has happened. He’s wasted money and then turns around
and says you have to pay another £20m to get rid of him? I think
that’s ludicrous.
“Why? Because he wanted his backroom staff to go with him. Well,
he’s now got his backroom staff at Inter
Milan. So cheerio. Bye-bye. And good luck. I’m very
angry at what he’s done to my club.”
Grobbelaar, who made 440 appearances in 14 years at Anfield, is
also unhappy about how Benitez conducted himself last season.
He said: “I’m angry when he stands up and says he can get fourth
place. They should have fired him when that became mathematically
impossible.
“He was that confident and that brash about what he could do.
And when he doesn’t do it it’s a smack in the face.
“There’s a huge hole in the ship and we have to block that
hole.”
