The current Newcastle boss claimed he was not given enough money to win the Premier League during his managing spree at Liverpool
Ahead of today's game with his former club at St James Park, Benitez said he would have liked to spend the remainder of his career as Liverpool manager.
Benitez also admits reasons behind his failure and departure as Liverpool manager.
He said: "They were people who really understood football.
'Unfortunately that board didn't have the money to compete against the top sides and had to sell
The new owners ran it more as a business than a football club."
Benitez left Liverpool in 2010 but will be remembered for his Champions League success at Istanbul in 2005.
