Arrivederci, Rafa

It was an open secret. The latter was revealed after the crossing of statements between Rafa Benitez and his 'boss', Massimo Moratti. Nobody likes to be left in evidence, except when someone makes you pay. The Spanish coach is history at Inter Milan. Six months is hardly what has gone on her relationship with the Italian champions lost the European Super Cup against Atletico Madrid but who managed the Italian Super Cup and a few days ago, the Club World Cup his last title, now confirmed, their last game on the bench neroazzurro.

The former Liverpool coach this summer accepted a complicated amendment: change in the position to Jose Mourinho after the best season ever of the Italian club. We endorse a curriculum like no other, perfect to keep writing new glorious pages in the Inter. A project with such ambition should be set to something who is going to carry out required. And Moratti, a lavish series, which has been spent in recent years has been everything and more to make a squad of champions Inter, said enough. Naturally, Benitez did not sit well the decision not to scratch the pocket and the end of the story is known.

This interest reminds me that Barcelona is 'tired' of winning it all. That Barcelona with Ronaldinho, Deco and Eto'o as champions who failed-or unwilling-to follow sweeping. Bridging the gap, of course, strange that the president has drained the package and have washed their hands in terms of reinforcements are concerned. A champion, and more with age as the template interest, should have been reinforced. Because despite having a very competent staff, no one can forget that Mourinho is a genius when it comes to taking advantage of all players and is meant only way to resurface last season players like Sneijder, Motta, Walter Samuel, Cambiasso ... that maybe with another mentor would not have given so much to talk about.

Benitez, as it did in Liverpool, has forgiven part of their settlement , but has blotted his career with his fiasco in Milan. Although both titles are harvested, those who did not take to the streets to celebrate, not been able to find the key to a team than last year was walking in the Serie A and is currently seventh to thirteen points of Milan, eternal rival and leader, but with two games to his credit. Moratti is now seeking a replacement for world champion without a master and it sounds hard exmilanista Leonardo-a-just might bring Kakà, seems very complicated, or some other reinforcement, demonstrating, if carried out, that what Benitez claimed his first weeks in office was not so banal.
