Rafa Benitez insists he has no problems with the Liverpool board
backing him in the transfer market.
After Liverpool's 6-3 defeat to Arsenal in the Carling Cup, Benitez
suggested he required more money to make the club a competitive
force.
The Spaniard's comments led to speculation that he is at odds with
his employers and is unhappy at a perceived lack of financial
clout.
But Benitez has moved to quell any rumours of unrest, insisting
both he and the board are pulling in the right direction for
Liverpool's future.
"I want to clarify that I don't have any problem with the board,"
said Benitez on Sky Sports News.
"I am really happy with them.
"They want the best for the club, I want the best for the club and
we are trying to improve."
The Reds were booed off at half-time of the cup exit to Arsenal,
with Benitez's side trailing 4-1 at that stage.
Benitez's team selection for the game was heavily criticised as an
under-strength side failed to keep alive any realistic hopes of
domestic silverware for this season.
The Anfield chief is aware of the discontent, but remains confident
he is making the best decisions for the club.
He added: "As a manager you have to accept sometimes that you will
receive criticism.
"I am here for making decisions, for taking decisions, and we will
try to do our best every week."
