As he said it, you'd imagine Benitez might have been sitting somewhere and thinking: "I hear you, brother. "Unlike for his Sunday counterpart, however, at least things in the short term might be ready to become a little easier for Benitez. Now through a brutal stretch, Madrid with the visit of Rayo are entering an extremely gentle run in which they'll also meet Real Sociedad, Deportivo La Coruna, Sporting Gijon, Real Betis, Espanyol, Granada, Athletic Bilbao (at home) and Malaga between now and late February.

From the last 30 points available, they've taken seven. Evidently, all isn't well—both on and off the pitch.
