Newcastle have pulled off a massive coup. The Newcastle fans are probably rubbing their eyes in disbelief. Fair play to the Geordies because getting Rafa is like getting their very own Klopp. No rational manager with any gravitas would go and work for Cashley and I can't believe Rafa has signed on the dotted line. Surely he doesent need the money? But they are a super club with legendary fans, maybe he thinks he can awake a sleeping giant? Maybe it was Montse's decision? Anyway welcome back to the Premiership Mr Benitez can't wait to see you back at Anfield and hearing the Kop chant your name. You deserve our affection. Good luck on your new Geordie adventure.

He is a workaholic and he has a house in the northeast, practically a no brainer for him i would have thought. Not sure if it is too late to save newcastle but if anyone can bring some dicipline to that lot rafa can.
Despite his shinanigans towards the end of his tenure i have a lot of time and respect for him. I wish him all the best tbh.

Super club? Really?

its a no lose situation for the guy, plus he will have the chance to relegate fat sam, once again though a manager doing a poor job has been allowed to stay on, after the transfer window has closed and the guy taking his place has to make do, with what's been left behind, that's the madness part.

He may well stop the goals leaking, but the attack is another big problem for them. Wishing Rafa the best of luck as he will always be a legends for us.

With their heritage, pedigree, fan base and footballing culture I'd call them 'super' redsince85.
