But you've got to be, Julio Benitez, you've got to be prepared to be broken by it.

you've got to be prepared to be broken by it and maybe it shouldn't be that way but it is and this is where i worry a little bit about the huge contradiction of the structure because it just we're different we are i think we are a super club but we are different to real madrid we're different to buy munich and we're different to barcelona the way we are and you need we need within that contradiction there's got to be a sense of mission and belief but there's no one at the minute this vacuum now exists where i think he almost feels like he might be overstepping if he tried to get in there but he's not that fella

but maybe he could become that feather and I'm still not ruling that out and he was a little bit last season when he turned up and went lads I'm here to win we're about winning Liverpool's about winning I'm going to show you winning and our standards are there to the point that I'm going to bore everyone to tears about getting beaten on by Nottingham Forest because that does not happen on my watch well lad this year we've lost 20 fucking games

So it has happened.

So how are you saying let's back up there?

Because if that's it, if he's going to rock back up next season and start again and he can drill that into them and he can get there, then we could be absolutely all right.

But I think that's dead hard.

And what we do and what this job does, and you've just got to acknowledge it's the reality of it and you can't put a lovely little structure around it, is it brings people to their fucking knees.

But that's what it is to be a Liverpool manager, and you're not going to find a nice little way to get about it, and it's driven me a little bit mad.

There's a quote that Fitzgerald always tells me about Mick Taylor, who was brought in to be a guitarist for the Rolling Stones, and then he left.

And there's something Keith Richards says after he left when he's asked about it, and Keith Richards says, Mick Taylor was a really great guitarist, but he found out the hard way that was all he was.

He was not a Rolling Stone.

And there's a bit of me, and obviously it's Fitzgerald, so he tells the story in a long way, and it sounds fucking fabulous.

And he's like, but what a thing to say.

And there's a bit of me that worries that the manager's not a Rolling Stone.

And it's unfair to almost expect him to be, whilst you can say he was a really great guitarist.

He is a really, really good coach, and I won't have that he's not.

But it's how you sort of pull the sense of everything in that I think is really important.

All that said, we fucking beat Evan at the Hill Dickinson.

So say what you want.
