RAFA BENITEZ FOR THE SACK - NEXT LIVERPOOL MANAGER BETTING TIPS
We’re in the final minutes of the match against Reading and it looks like Liverpool have been all but eliminated from winning anything but the Europa League this year, and if they capitulate like they did today against the Championship side, you wouldn’t really expect to put your hard-earned cash on it.
In terms of the outright odds on Benitez going, it looks 50-50 at the moment. Skybet has priced him at 5/6 to stay and 5/6 to leave. It is very much up in the air at the moment and it is clear that the bookmaker is waiting for more news to come out before adjusting prices.
UPDATE: SKYBET ARE NOW LISTING RAFA AT 4/1 TO LEAVE LIVERPOOL BEFORE THEY FACE STOKE CITY!
Victor Chandler has released odds on the next Liverpool manager and the current favourite is Jose Mourinho, but I don’t buy that for a minute as he’s heading to United as soon as Sir Alex Ferguson retires- that is all but confirmed. I think Mourinho is the only one with the ego and stature to step in after Fergie and get the job done right.
Onwards and upwards, the next Liverpool Manager (if the odds are to be believed) is either Kenny Dalglish or Guus Hiddink. Surely, Reds fans would feel better about Hiddink being in charge, but if Benitez is sacked I expect Dalglish to be appointed as a stop-gap measure. He would likely only take over until a regular full-time manager would be appointed at the end of the season.
Kenny Dalglish is 3/1 while Guus Hiddink is 4/1. Gerard Houllier is a lengthy 10/1 for a dramatic return to Anfield while Jurgen Klinnsman probably wouldn’t be a bad selection either and he trades at an enticing 12/1. Oswaldo Olivera trades at 16/1 while Frnak Rijkaard can be backed at 20/1 alongside Mauricio Pelligrini. Big Phil Scolari is 22/1 to have another crack at a top four club while Marco van Basten is interestingly priced at 25/1.
