      Inter contact Benitez

      http://www.guillembalague.com/rumores_desp.php?titulo=Inter+contact+Benitez&id=279

      Initial contact between Inter Milan and Rafa Benitez has taken place. Inter technical director Marco Branca has been in touch with the Liverpool manager him to ask him if he would like to take over at the Serie A club.

      Rafa will need to decide soon. He is still waiting for signs of a good reason to stay at Liverpool - or a major offer to convince him to leave. Inter Milan would be enticing, but Rafa`s first choice is to remain at Anfield. The problem is, nobody at Liverpool is willing to guarantee him that any money he can raise through selling players will be reinvested in the team – nor is there any evidence that funds available from the board will be sufficient for the squad rebuilding that is urgently required.

      Should Benitez move to Serie A, he would inherit an ageing Inter squad with many senior players mirroring a brand of football in Jose Mourinho`s image and with just two genuinely creative midfielders in Sneijder and Cambiasso. Benitez would need money to spend and an injection of new blood should he decide to make the switch.

      AC Milan have also made contact with Rafa`s agent on two occasions now, and an offer from Inter`s rivals may hold greater appeal than following in Mourinho`s footsteps after a season in which they could have won everything possible.

      That's the most convincing from what we've seen so far.

      Mourinho heading for Madrid?

      If so, let's have Pellegrini.

      Well its only a rumour at the moment, however its also being said Mourinho has gave Madrid a week to instill him as coach.

      Spot on, can't those two Yank cu*ts see that every other team want him as Manager? He must be doing something right in their minds for them to come calling.

      I just refuse to get drawn in on speculation and such, until anything is official I will treat it as nonsense

      Still think it's either Madrid or Liverpool for Rafa.

      I buried my nuts and went underground as soon as that final whistle went the other week!

      I'm sure there's plenty more news to come this summer, during and after the World Cup. The only thing I'm thinking about while the season is out is about the owners F***ing off back where they came from.

      I hate this F***ing time of year. I really F***ing hate it.

      The days where a football summer brought optimism seem a long time gone.

      Ms Torres mentions sleeping together and already some have buried their nuts. I like where this is going.
