Just get Benitez and be done with it.

FWIW I think Benitez will guarantee them at least one good cup run per year. Take note that I said cup run, not a trophy

Tbf his time at Inter and Chelsea really did a number on his reputation. I seem to recall him having an excellent record against other Top 4 teams during his time at Valencia and Liverpool, especially considering the (lack of) resources at his disposal. Carlo's at another level, but I wouldn't be too confident against Rafa.

 

[Barcaman]

I bet half of people that dislike him are doing so solely on his appearance.

who? benitez? why?

who? benitez? why?

They are desperate, no other real options available. They could always just stick with Carlo but we are talking about perez here.

Rafa Benítez says his goodbyes to Napoli, set to join Real Madrid.

Rafael Benitez has confirmed he will leave Napoli at the end of the season. He's in line to join Real Madrid as their new manager

This is it.

 

[impeh]

He's a good coach but his sides are never "pretty" to watch. At Madrid I can't see him being anything other than yet another Perez yes-man.

 

[iniesta_8]

Benitez = poor man's Mourinho

Benitez = poor man's Mourinho

I'm sure Barca will welcome the new coach with a manita in the first El Clasico as well.

He won zero trophies this season, some of you guys sound too surprised. It's Real Madrid.
Look what happened to Tata (also a gentleman) after one season with only SuperCopa.
We're not THAT different.

Tata did not win us the Cl and copa.We went trophyless under his tenure for the first time in a long long time.There is a big difference between the tata situation and the ancelotti one.We have been becoming more and more like them recently but imo we are still very different and better than them in most of those regards including this one.
