At first, I was pissed off, now I'm indifferent about it. It's the way it is guys, deal with it. Benitez is here until the end of the season.

I suppose if Roman absolutely had to sack RDM, then Benitez is probably the only available coach who has a decent CV.

He has to win the supporters round and the only way to do that is with results. So I suppose there is an extra incentive for him. He's very highly thought of in Spain and is an intelligent guy. Good man management but his transfer policy leaves a little to be desired, although I doubt he'll have any say whatsoever in January anyway.

I'll give him a chance...

Good luck to him, another interim appointment, if he does well will they give him a new contract or just go for pep?

Knowing Roman's agenda he will certainly make a move for Pep.

I'd love to see Mourinho return though as unlikely as that sounds.

Very clear plan by only giving him an interim deal. Rafa for now, Pep in the summer.

Outstanding pedigree? Robbie won the same in six months than the fat waiter won in six years at the Bin Dippers. Absolutely shocking decision, If he's such a great manager why has he been sat on his arse for two years?

The next few games will be key for Torres, he will now feel 100% backing from the manager and if he can nick a goal or 2 he might start producing (he will never become the player he was though). just to add 1 thing, i lost all hope for Fernando already in the summer but this might come good?

I really wish this constant talk of Torres would finally end. He doesn't deserve the attention.
