PREMIER LEAGUE Miracle man Rafa I’ve respect for Wenger, but others...
SUPER MAC: Pep & his billions may win boss of the year. . . but Benitez deserves the title for what he’s done at Toon with just pennies
RAFA BENITEZ had a pop at the likes of Jose Mourinho as he hailed today’s visiting boss Arsene Wenger.
Benitez, who has had spats with Mourinho and Sam Allardyce to name two, said: “I always like the way Arsene Wenger’s team play and his behaviour. He respects others.
“He is upset like everyone when you lose, or something is wrong. But still there is a big difference between him and maybe the others.”
Benitez, who said it was “not fair” to discuss talk of him replacing Wenger, admitted: “I was thinking about staying 20 years at Liverpool. I’d like to stay a lot of years at any club that wants to be competitive.”
