Some sections of the media claimed recently that Milan Baros was very unhappy with Rafa Benitez's decision to drop him for the Carling Cup final and was about to leave Cardiff before being persuaded to come back.
The Liverpool ace denied the rumours strongly, "My goodness, what are these speculations?"
"I don't know where they have got this information from. Maybe this is only speculation from a few press men. And do you know what is the real truth? I haven't spoken with anybody for two days."
"We were given a rest and I haven't even been at our stadium. It's nonsense. I had no row with anyone from our coaching staff."
The Czech Republic striker was indeed unhappy at being left out of the starting eleven but which player will not be for such an important game. Baros was naturally disappointed but he did not react in that way.
"It's sure that everyone wants to play. But, in this case, I would never escalate it in such a way as was published [heading back to Liverpool and refusing to sit on the bench]."
