Danny Murphy admits he “hated” Rafa Benitez after being told it was time to leave Liverpool.
Murphy would eventually leave for Tottenham.
“Being told you’re no longer wanted at Liverpool by Rafa… that was a tough one,” he told talkSPORT.
“He was being honest and he said to me: ‘Look, I want to bring in some of my own players, you’re not going to be part of the XI and it’s unlikely you’re going to get back in the team. If you want to stay, there’s not much point, I know you like playing and you’re better off going’.
“I hated him at the time, but I’ve lost that now. I understand what he was doing.
