da doce: Rafa Benitez has been in a power struggle at Newcastle almost ever since he pitched up in the North East and according to the Daily Mail, that fact shows no signs of stopping.
da cassino: Their report states that the Spanish manager may be forced to walk away from the club if he is not given more control over transfer dealings, a £50m war chest and the removal of the need for Lee Charnley – Mike Ashley’s right hand man – to sign off every signing.
That would be a body blow to a club that Benitez has dragged out of the mire and towards comfortable Premier League survival with a squad of players that many would claim are Championship standard.
So we’re asking you: are Benitez’s demands too much or are they fair enough for a man who has been the figurehead for a change in the mood at such a troubled club?
