Rafa Benitez

i reckon he will be sacked after crimbo

I find it hard to see him lasting til the summer as well. It's a mess of a situation. I'd be in the pro-Rafa camp but I think he was foolish in making the demands he did, when he did. Winning what most Europeans view as a mickey-mouse cup, against poor opposition, is not a good foundation to base your demands on. Especially when Moratti has a history of sacking mabagers on the back of successes.

That being said, I was watching Sky Sports News today and a journo from Gazzetta said most of the Inter fans backed Benitez, bearing in mind all the key injuries he's had. You're in a no-win situation when your predecessor won the treble and most of your squad have been through a long WC campaign.

According to Gabriele Marcotti on 5Live this evening it was mutual agreement.

So he was sacked then.

Well that Italian job didn't last long....

I believe he'll be back managing in England before the end of the season.
