| | Benitez received backing of Mourinho and Wenger24.11.2015 |
One of the most emblematic figures of the Premier League – Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger expressed support to their counterpart, Rafael Benitez. The Spaniard was placed under devastating criticism lately, but nevertheless Real Madrid President, Florentino Perez, continues to trust him.
The future of Benitez in Real Madrid was called into serious question after the collapse in El Classico and loss with 0:4.
'At this point, I see a lot of people talking about the clubs, who find themselves in trouble. This is an amazing lack of respect and any ethics.', commented Mourinho.
'If you talk about Real Madrid, then talk about them when they win, not when they lose. My comment about El Classico? No! I am not glad about the losses of others. I enjoy the victories of my team. I'm not smiling on the losses of the other teams. I smile to my team. That's why I don't smile often in recent months.', said the Portuguese national.
Arsene Wenger also took on the crisis in Real and stated it 'would not be serious', the President of the Club, Florentino Perez to take the coaching change.
'I want to take this opportunity to fully support Rafael Benitez, who is an incredible manager. I don't think it would not be serious to fire their coach after 12 games. I hope that he will receive the support of the President, Florentino Perez., said Arsenal's manager.
