Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has refused to hit back at Blackburn counterpart Sam Allardyce’s latest jibe at him.
Allardyce reignited his war of words with Benitez earlier on Thursday after claiming he does not like the Spaniard.
The pair have never seen eye-to-eye and after Benitez mocked Allardyce’s behaviour and Blackburn’s style after Liverpool’s win at Anfield last month.
Allardyce suggested Benitez’s criticism of him is a cover-up for how bad Liverpool are performing, claiming the Reds have all but blown their chance of finishing in the top four.
But after the 1-0 Europa League defeat in Lille the Liverpool boss said he did not want to give Allardyce any more publicity.
“Who?” was his initial, half-joking, response when asked about Allardyce’s
latest comments.
“No comment. No publicity for him.”
