The Magpies legend has been left baffled by the decision to let an experienced coach move on, with struggles now predicted at St James' Park
Rafa Benitez was “worth 10 to 15 points a season” to Newcastle, says Alan Shearer, with the decision to let him leave branded “a shambles and a travesty”.
The Magpies have announced that their current boss will be leaving at the end of his contract.
A disgruntled fan base have been quick to air their disappointment at seeing an experienced Spaniard being allowed to move on, while Shearer has hit out at those steering the ship at St James’ Park.
