A truly, deeply saddening story: Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez leaves by mutual consent

Liverpool have announced manager Rafael Benitez has left the club by mutual consent after six years in charge.

Benitez, 50, replaced Gerard Houllier as Liverpool manager in June 2004 and guided them to Champions League success the following season. Who could ever forget "The Miracle of Istanbul"? Good Bye and Good Luck Rafa! You'll Never Walk Alone! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yLA4WBTh1M&feature=related
