Sacking Ancelotti was stupid - appointing Benitez was even more stupid. Perez doesn't really have a clue what he's doing half the time.

Hard to explain how much of an aura of class Zidane exudes in person. When he enters a room, you stop. When he speaks, you listen.

Have to feel bad for Benitez though. This was his dream job but his system simply wasn't adequate. The players didn't make it easy either.

Florentino Perez is a joke. Why give the job to Benitez in the first place to then sack. He is turning a great club into a laughing stock.
