I dont know where you get your figures from but Benitez was given 229 million pounds during his reign, he spent 27.5 million first season, 26.73 million second season, 27.15 million third season, 70.7 million fourth season, 39 million fifth season and 36.76 million in his last season totaling 229 million pounds worth of the Clubs money spent. You say he challenged the top two consistantly, what evidence are you basing this on first season we finished 37 points behind, second season 9 points behind, third season 21 points behind, fourth season 11 points behind, fifth season was the closest and only ever challenge where we finished 4 points behind and in his last season we finished 23 points behind, is this what you call consistantly challenging the top two.
So first season he spent 27.5 million and won the CL, BR has spent 28 million and is taking us backwards - that's progress for ya !

There are some people, not me of course, who would argue that winning the CL with Igor and Djimi in a side is quite possibly one of the greatest managerial achievements of all time
