Massive rumour going around Liverpool that at half time against Reading in the Cup, Steve Gerrard (captain) and Pellegrino (first team coach) had a massive row and Sammy Lee (assistant Manager) and Reina (goalkeeper) joined in.
The result being that Gerrard did not appear for the second half (and we know what happened) and has since stated that he will not play for Liverpool while Benitez is the manager.
I have a contact in Anfield and when I asked them by text if it was true, they replied that it was ‘more or less correct’.
There is a widespread view in Liverpool that there is something in this. Gerrard has denied any dispute with Benitez whilst deftly sidestepping the actual rumours of a dispute with Pellegrini. Gerrard is in the squad v Wolves tonight but not expected to be fit enough to start.
