Heard from a liverpool mate there are rumours he has signed with an English club?

Wonder who would want him? Aston Villa? Chelsea?

Can't think who else would touch him really. Anyone heard anything similar?

Can't imagine it would be Chelsea. I can't think of too many clubs it could be. May-be Blackburn?

Could it be some sort of roll at Pool?
I'm sure it will be somewhere in the Wirral area.

Absolutely not at Spurs thank you very much. The biggest false pretender in the game.

Aston Villa if the doctors tell Houllier to retire.

Liverpool. That's why Kenny hasn't been given the job yet.

Aston Villa if the doctors tell Houllier to retire.

This, he and Quique Sanchez Flores are allegedly on their shortlist.

According to Balague (who despite being not overly reliable, is one of Rafa's best mates) Benitez has been offered WBA, two international sides and an Italian club (not Inter).

Yeah. They are already tying Warnock to West Ham

And to be fair my guess was legit and based on the noise about Warnock being canned
Oh the West Ham fans will hate that more than when Graham came to us.
Warnock is near the top of the list of things that make Spammers fans so bitter.

Surely Villa or Blackburn. I really can't see Houllier being allowed to carry on at Villa, it seems like an unnecessary risk to his health.

rumours in spain are that the relationship between mourinho and perez is strained. Mourinho already doesnt speak to valdano.

Benitez is top of perezs list to replace him. fat waiter was real madrid youth team manager before

I really can't see Goatie going to Madrid, even if Jose is canned, after the way he sunk Inter.
