Rafael Benitez's biographer Paco Lloret says Real Madrid will be wasting their time if they make an attempt to prise the Liverpool manager from Anfield.
Benitez 3945Agreed Crouch just cant hack it up front on his own. I thought he;d bought him...
Speculation continues to rumble on that the Spanish giants will make an approach for Benitez but Lloret - one of Rafa's closest friends - says Liverpool fans shouldn't be concerned.
Lloret said: "Rafa can never go to Madrid. He told me that he cannot accept players whom he cannot teach to do the right thing in training.
"It would be hard to work with Raul, Ronaldo or Zidane. He could never accept the kind of interference from the president that they have there.
"I remember talking to Rafa in 2004, when Valencia were fighting Madrid for the title. I said that I felt sure we were going to win because I had friends in Madrid and I knew how they were training. There was no real work; players were training for 45 minutes. I knew how hard they were working in Valencia and how they would seek to improve every week. He said to me, 'Madrid have a bigger car than us but our car has petrol'.
"For the chairman of Real Madrid the goal is to sell shirts in Australia and China and to market the club all over the world. I know Rafa; he's only happy when all the players are working together for a single purpose. He couldn't train with Ronaldo when Ronaldo is going off to some sponsor's session."
