MY SPIES tell me that Rafa Benitez would like the Aston Villa job if Lambert is dismissed.
His confidence borders on arrogance sometimes but he is a competent manager, whatever people might say. His assessment of the squad he inherited at Chelsea certainly supports that view.
Having said that, I would not want him in charge of the club I support. And I believe Villa would be better served sticking with Lambert.
