Jaw, think the reasoning behind giving him an 18mth contract is to make sure he has enough authority (real or imagined) so he's not a lame duck manager, Benitez could get away with a short term one, because he was just putting himself in the shop window at Chelsea, and he'd already won leagues and cups so could grab the players attention.
sherwood is probably out of a job come the summer, and I'm hoping Levy is doing the ground work in terms of seeing which manager would be a good fit. Fingers crossed, otherwise we've got young 'Arry and his dislike of holding midfielders, and penchant for playing young 'uns who you're not sure about for a while..
