WHEN RAFAEL BENITEZ WAS TO SIGN THE WEST HAM UNITED JOB BY THREE HOURS.

Oh indeed Rafael Benitez will surely regret refusing the West Ham United post as the manager, instead of going to the Spanish giants Real Madrid, now his future is very dark with every chance of the sack due to the mess up about Denis Cheryshev playing in the Copa Del Rey match after getting three yellow cards. The Chairman of West Ham United Mr Sullivan has said that Rafael Benitez was very much on the point of signing up at West Ham United only three hours from actually signing the contract at West Ham United , but he changed his mind and signed up with the Spanish giants Real Madrid. It was a case of so close and yet so far away. But one thing is very clear here at West Ham United , he would have had less tension , and here fans were less angry with him compared to Real Madrid.
