Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez believes Manchester United will
remain strong after Sir Alex Ferguson eventually retires.
"I don't think it will be any easier for us when Ferguson goes,"
said Benitez.
"United is a fantastic club with big money and it will always be
difficult to beat them - even without Alex Ferguson."
Benitez also reckons the Champions League quarterfinal draw has
handed a major advantage to United.
He added: "Clearly our side of the draw is more difficult, so
for me United are clearly favourites in the other half."
