Rafa rubbishes exit speculation

After the usual stories that emerge when Madrid have a few bad results, linking Rafa to take over as their coach, Rafa has stated that his future is on Merseyside. He had this to say to Liverpoolfc.tv:
"At this moment I am very happy here. I am focused on the games we have coming up and I want to win things with my club.
"I don't want to waste my time talking about other possibilities. I am focused on my team, winning matches and I am happy at Liverpool."
Rafa has been in Italy to collect an award recognising him as the best coach in Europe:
He added: "I am delighted to have been named the best coach in Europe, but this award isn't for me. It's for the club, my staff, the players and our supporters. It's impossible to win trophies and be successful if you don't have the support of people around you at the club."
