Liverpool legend Ian St John says Rafa Benitez can't complain about being shown the door at Anfield.

He says it was right for the Liverpool board to call time on Benitez's tenure at Anfield.

"Rafa can't really complain - he had six years and spent a lot of money, despite what everybody says," said the Scot.

"At the end of the six years he didn't have a squad strong enough to win the Premier League or to finish in the top four."
