    Football - Benitez: No problem with anyone at Chelsea

    Rafael Benitez has insisted he has no issue with the Chelsea board, that his job title is not a concern and that his criticisms of fans were designed to encourage a unified backing of his team.

    Benitez appeared to backtrack from some of his comments made earlier this week in which he criticised the decision to give him the `interim' title and the supporters' continued barracking of him.

    Benitez said: "I didn't have any problem with the board. I didn't have any problem with Michael Emenalo (the technical director). I didn't have any problems with Roman Abramovich (the owner). I don't have a problem with the players.

    "What I want to do is the best for the team, the best for the club.

    "I have been for 26 years training and coaching and always I have had principles, respect and education.

    "It's the way that I have achieved what I've achieved. We have 11 games to play. If we stick together, it will be easier and we can get more points.

    "I would like to see a fantastic atmosphere supporting the team, and I will be really pleased with that."
