Rafa sending a message to Benfica? From the echo: "Everyone knows we want to sign player and they think we have a lot of money. Agents call us and say they can do a deal, and then quote 20 million euros. It's unbelievable. People think we have a lot of money and we can pay over the value. We will only pay the true value of a player."
I think he's a useful squad player so I hope we hang on to him. But I can understand if he wants out. He's not getting any younger and probably hoped to be a first team regular by now.
Two great memories from last season. Definately two goals that most LFC supporters will remember forever. So even if he leaves he did make an impact here. Sort of.
