This got me, This guy donated 96,000 to the hillsborough families fight for justice from his payoff as LFC manager. Forever have respect and love for this man ❤️
I didnt know that about his donation... . Im not a liver fan, but that is quality .. . Theres something in between them 4 stands, that changes a humans' outlook on what football, football fans and the respect can do for the game. Benitez .... pure gent
He also donates money every year to the Hillsborough course plus Alder Hey Hospice! Many more charities. He once sent a load of disabled kids to Disneyland!
I am a united fan but first, I am a football fan and hillsborough transcends any rivalry. What a terrible tragedy, both the incident and the injustice the victims families had to endure and still do. everytime i reflect upon it, it unsettles me highly. the tragedy has only made one of englands greatest clubs stronger. Lest we forget JUSTICE FOR THE 96 Youll never walk alone
+Daniel Lee I think sadly theres ignorant and insensitive "fans" both for united and liverpool who forget there are more important things in life like life itself rather than football, and human tragedies such as munich and hillsborough deserve nothing but respect and rememberance. at least Munich was an unfortunate and tragic accident, but hillsborough... dont even get me started, that was all the south 0yorkshire police's fault pure incompetence that unjustly killed so many, injured a lot more and scarred a whole fanbase emotionally forever. What is even more angering, is how unfairly the bodies of the deceased were treated, testing kids and elders for alcohol consumption trying to inject lies of hooliganism to the public when it was ALL THEIR FAULT. It upsets me so MUCH and im not even british. so tragic
Rafa is a true gentleman, even after he left us, he continued to support the club and the local area. He has done a huge amount for the Hillsborough memorial by raising awareness and donating lots of money. He may have made a few managerial mistakes towards the end of his Liverpool career, but the passion and love he has for the club is amazing. YNWA Rafa!
Your not even scouse the atmosphere in the stadium with this little speech is what it's like on match day rubbish fans support your local team full of glory hunters in these comments
Here boss mate. He still has family who lives on Merseyside because of how much they love it. He will always have a true connection with the city and LFC.
Liverpool fans absolutely adored him, there was something about him and the Liverpool fans took to him really early on I still believe to this day if we had the budget like United or Chelsea we would’ve won the league under him
this why I love rafa. He isn't even an Englishman or a local, but he loved the city and its people. You can see how much he cares about Liverpool in this video. You don't need to be a scouser or even English to be touched by the efforts of the Hillsbourough familys' fight for justice. Rafa is a legend and a true red!
I come back to this clip with our Margaret and Rafa, not because I'm morbid and keep reminding myself of the horror of that tragic day and the subsequent injustice heaped on the families...its to remind me what Liverpool fc is to its armies of fans at L4 and around the world. And see what it means to a Spainiard to be thought of as 'family. Walk on.
Jeez, this clip ALWAYS brings tears to my eyes - all six foot three, sixteen stone of me. A good man is Raffa, always close to our hearts. YNWA one and all !
THIS IS LIVERPOOL. Once you fall in Love with this Great Club YNWA. What a Great Man & a Great Coach. This is how the Liverpool Fans treat their former Coaches & Great past & present players. For the 24 dislikes on this site SHAME ON YOU. Go the Mighty REDS
The respect I have for Rafa will never be forgotten. Some of my greatest days growing up watching Liverpool at Anfield was because of him. The love he has for our club and still has will always warrant him a scouser. YNWA Rafa
Those Everton fans that have been threatening Rafa in order for him not to take the Evertone job don't have a clue about football. The Hillsbrough disaster affected both Liverpool fans and Everton fans alike, they both lost family and friends and that disaster unites the 2 clubs, it goes beyond football. Rafa Benitez has done a lot to help the Hillsbrough families/campaign... therefore the man deserves respect from Everton fans just as much as he does Liverpool fans. He's a man of integrity and he will do all he can to bring success to Everton, he loves Merseyside his family have lived there ever since he was Liverpool Manager. Give the man some respect and get behind him! :)
Totally hindsight is a great thing. I really feel for Rafa. I think he went in thinking he'd genuinely try and do his best for Everton. But they were never going to accept him unfortunately. Proper scousers will always know what love he has for the city of liverpool. The fact he's settled here. Everton are a rotten club living in our shadow.
Rafa deserves the key to the city, him and his family are adopted scousers and they'll always be part of our family, forever welcome at the best city in the world, Liverpool!!!!!!
Absolutely amazing manager and I'm over the moon he's Newcastle manager, even though no one can deny he'll always have a love for Liverpool and there fans. You should see him in the dug out as Chelsea manager against Liverpool, he started crying when they sang YNWA, he's a proper passionate manager. Let's hope Newcastle fans can steal his heart just as Liverpool fans did, and I'm sure they will if he's around long enough because there's nothing fake about Newcastle fans, and that's exactly the same for Liverpool fans, two amazing set of supporters.
Im a Glasgow Rangers fan, never been a fan of Liverpool but I have a massive respect for the club, the fans and Rafa Benitez for remembering the guys who never made it home after a football game, as a Rangers fan, We've been through it and were always thinking of you in your time of need. JFT96
Respect to you sir, Rafa had LFC in his heart & soul, he wasn't a local fella, or even English, he just loved the city & its people, him & his wife do a lot for local charities, his wife refuses to leave to the area even though he's now in Italy. I hope Arsenal win the prem if we can't, you do things the right way by bringing players through the ranks, unlike the cheque book Charlie, mourinho
The respect Rafa Benitez has for Liverpool is sorely lacking in the world of football today. For that, we salute you Rafa, for returning you've done for our club.YNWA :)
Es un orgullo que un entrenador español como Rafa...sea tan reconocido y apreciado en una catedral del futbol como Anfield, y en Inglaterra en general. Lastima que en España no lo apreciemos tanto. Ojala que vuelva a triunfar.
Emocionante ver como lo quieren los aficionados Liverpool,sin duda se deja querer y es bastante sensible,es buena persona sin duda. Y los aficionados del Liverpool me han dejado sin palabras.
Rafa did all he could in the best interest of LFC. When he comes back to LFC, he'll have my 100% support just like he had last time. Thank you Rafa. YNWA.
If I'm right Rafa did not have to be there but turned up out of his own accord man's always had my respect Remember watching it on BBC News Channel my dad remembers Hillsborough he watched it at home so he was sort of emotional at this
For a man who showed very little emotion during his time at Liverpool, (Not once did he celebrate a goal) to break down in tears show how much the club means to him. Respect and YNWA Rafa Benitez
Only just seen this, very emotional. Takes you back to a time when a football manager truly knew what it meant to represent a club and it's fans. Rafa you're a legend. From a Gooner wanting JFT96
As a Manchester United supporter I am thrilled that justice was won and what happened at Hillsborough was tragic. I'm all up for having banter with Liverpool fans but I will always respect the club I'm not one of those fans who sing disrespectful chants. Liverpool FC you will always have my back. Justice for the 96 YNWA our two clubs have suffered tragedies but they will not define us they will make us stronger than ever before
Im a West Ham fan but theres something about Liverpool as a club that cuts a lot deeper into the passion behind football than almost any other club for me, and its not just because of the 96. Special club with their heart on thier sleeves and Im proud their an English one. Now go and beat those United wankers!!
Are you kidding Liverpool fans are rubbish one of the worst atmospheres I've been to your lot are as bad anorl.crap fans when they lose they start to cry and milk it
Fair play to Benitez,he was deeply moved there.Im not a LFC fan at all but the dignity and courage the families have shown in the face of everything is wonderful to see.RIP the 96.
every time i watch that clip it brings a tear to my eye... a true gentleman who gets lfc... i pray to god he comes home to us one day... Rafa we owe u so much for what he gave us.. god bless and ynwa
Michael Waldron It's still a bit too early to say, but I, for one, want Brendan to stay with us for many many years to come. He is only 40 years of age and the way we progressed these past few years, I can only see us getting better. Don't get me wrong, I love Rafa, he's a legend, but the way forward is with Brendan, I believe. YNWA!
Rafa Benitez, a true Liverpool legend and a fantastic human.
And now the new Everton manager😄
So no legend

Hopefully one day you will my friend

Hello from the future, Klopp is doing more than well. He is potentially leading Liverpool to the Title, on the 30th anniversary for Hillsborough.
this why I love rafa. He isn't even an Englishman or a local, but he loved the city and its people. You can see how much he cares about Liverpool in this video. You don't need to be a scouser or even English to be touched by the efforts of the Hillsbourough familys' fight for justice. Rafa is a legend and a true red!
The love of Rafa transcends mere results
I have a lot of time and respect for Rafa
Rafa will always be loved by Liverpool. Always.
I love this club. I'm a leeds fan but full respect to Liverpool a club with great integrity belief and amazing fans.
