Who'd have believed that Man City would be beaten 2-1 by Newcastle, especially after City scored within the first minute?
Despite the fact he's been gone for 8 years this could prove to be one of the best results Rafa ever achieved for LIverpool!

Re: Thank you Rafa!
As much as I hate the Guardian, this was funny from today's live coverage of the Leicester game:
"First Roy Hodgson, now Rafa Benitez; at this rate Liverpool will have the title sewn up in no time at all if they can persuade Manchester City’s next few opponents to hire Gerard Houllier, Roy Evans and Graeme Souness. All it takes, it seems, to turn the race into a procession is for former Liverpool managers to stand in Pep Guardiola’s way and come to Jurgen Klopp’s aid. Hodgson’s Crystal Palace managed it last month and Benitez did his old side a huge favour last night, with Newcastle’s shock win over City opening the door for Liverpool to establish a seven-point lead over the champions. All hail Rafa! Still a Kopite after all those years."
Long way to go yet, LFC could easily lose at Old Trafford against a resurgent Man U, and there is Chelsea and Spurs at Anfield as well, plus the usual tricky away games like West Ham.

Indeed. Plus that tricky home game against Leicester . . .
Thought Liverpool were poor tonight. They'll need to play better than that if they want to win the title.
