From the press conference:


"We have had a board meeting and analysed the sporting situation at Real Madrid.
“Rafa has all our support and all our confidence."

"Rafa Benitez has all the ability and has only just started his job here.
“Let him keep working and he will achieve his obejctives. "

"We are convinced that we have a great squad that will give much happiness to a fanbase that deserves everything.
Rafael Benitez is the chosen one to bring success to this squad that since January has struggled.
Now more than ever he needs the support of all of our followers"

"I understand the unhappiness and the anger of the fanbase with what happened on Saturday, but I ask them that they support the team."

"“I’m talking about this moment we are in now, I can not say what will happen in the future, nobody knows what could happen in six months."

Ronaldo: either Rafa goes or I go
lmao

Lets see how much pull Ronaldo actually has.

Reading Isco made claims aswell

ffs Florentino Chávez is at it again

He says there's a campaign against him to hurt him and the club, and that he's not going to allow it.

What's he going to do to attack freedom of speech this time?

give us free elections for once and stop acting like the dictator of a banana republic



Remember how exactly 1 year ago everyone said the same thing about Luís Enrique and Messi?

you really need to do something about this constant infighting zark

About Rafa staying, personally, I'm glad.

He fucked up badly in the clásico (no Casemiro, seriously? Not only was that a tactical suicide, but it also seemed like he was scared of reading about him being defensive in a clásico on the following day's newspaper, which shows lack of character). However, the team has looked much more solid defensively throughout the season. Yes, the last 3 games have been shit, but the first 2 we had many injuries and this third one was a major fuckup by the manager.

I don't think it would be a good idea to sack him just because of this tactical mistake, no matter how much a 0-4 against Barça hurts.

If he keeps making mistakes or becomes unable to handle the situation then yes, sack him, but for now I think the club has done the right thing saying they believe in Rafa and strengthening his position. Sacking him now would just make it look like the players are in charge, and that's the last thing that should happen.
