Didn't Mourinho win the Champions League and the League [A couple of times] with the current squad - more or less? They dominated the League so much you couldn't imagine they would be in their current position! Benitez is surely an experienced failure. And he even has the guts to bad mouth his players and the management. Who does that?

Was watching skysports today in the morning when they interviewed Rafa's biographer and the guy reckons the only reason Rafa went to Inter was to prove to Liverpool that he was still a big team coach - who in their right mind would go to a Jose side that had just won the treble and before that the scudetto 4 times in a row?The only way was down!

That said, to be 13 points adrift of AC Milan who have not even been convincing this season speaks volumes of Rafa's motivational and management skills - those guys had won everything last season so I wouldn't be surprised if the hunger had abated just a bit.

So now he's in Liverpool waiting for the agreement to be finalized with a possible 8M Euros payout (the guy is making serious harvests) depending on whether he's taken up by another team immediately or somesuch - not a bad payoff for 6 months in office!

Not to defend him too much but Inter have had a large chunk of injuries and absentees this season apart from the backline. and possibly etoo.
Inter without Sneidjer is engineless. Dude was diagnosed with anaemia or something.

Benitez though has a tabia of extravagant shopping

success is usually on the pitch. Even if Arses were making 1B pounds in profits, do you think their fans will care about that when the trophy cabinet is covered in so much dust it would require a palaentologist to predict the date of its last use?

in other news, I believe Benitez is a shrewd business man. 4 million GBP from Liverpool, and now with his contract with Inter terminated, he could be expecting some more in his bank account. IMHO he knew he was not good enough for Inter, yet he gets paid his full contractual dues for ruining Inter in 6 months.

Congratulations to inter hope mariga wil get playtime
