Right decision says Evans

Rafael Benitez leaving Liverpool was probably for the best admits Roy Evans. Benitez left the Reds by mutual consent yesterday, a shame but ultimately the right move according to Evans. "It's always sad when a manager leaves," said the former Liverpool boss. "Rafa was a good servant to the club over his six years and obviously successful. Unfortunately last season wasn't so good and there's been a lot of criticism. "Sometimes as a football club you have to make a decision to take the club forward and that seems to be what has happened today. "The fans will always be grateful to Rafa. If you win the Champions League, the fans will always endear to you, and there was the FA Cup, Super Cup and Community Shield too. "Fans will look back on Rafa's reign and say it was a great period, but unfortunately one year you can do poorly and that's the way football is today."
