Benitez, Liverpool part company
Liverpool's manager Rafa Benitez has left the team after a reign of six years after finishing trophyless last season.
In the just ended season Liverpool finished seventh in the league and failed to progress to the knockout stage of the Champions League.
This is only the second time during Benitez's time for Liverpool to finish outside the Champions League places.
In the Europa Cup Liverpool were knocked out by Atletico Madrid who went on to win the final against Fulham.
