It seems now that Benitez has lost the support of the fans if a recent poll is to believed. The poll that has been running since Liverpools disastrous FA Cup defeat by Championship strugglers Reading, has revealed that a staggering 73 per cent of the clubs fans want manger Rafa Benitez to be booted out.

Many feel that if Leverpool don’t claim a top four position in the league then Benitez will be sacked.

However, Benitez has vowed to fight on, and said: “Everyone knows the team is not playing at the level it can. When we lose, everyone loses – the fans, the players, the staff. I can understand the fans’ frustrations, but we feel the same. We want to win for them.”

“As for my future, all I will say is that my future is against Stoke – I have to be ready for the next game,” he added.
