Benitez confident of resolving issues

Benitez is due to hold talks with the club's co-owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks, possibly following the crucial Barclays Premier League match against Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday.
"I am very happy in Liverpool and I would like to be here for many more years," Benitez told Spanish newspaper AS.
The high-profile meeting follows the fall-out over the new American owners' transfer policy.
Benitez was angered by suggestions - in the wake of his comments about the January spending policy - that perhaps he should stick to training and coaching and leave money matters to others.
The attitude concerning all parties seems to be softening, however.
"We have had some disagreements (with the owners) at a professional level, but when we meet and talk everything will be cleared up and it will be seen as a simple misunderstanding.
"We all want the same thing which is the best for Liverpool and as such I am sure that we will understand each other well."
However Benitez accepts managers are under more scrutiny than ever before because of matters financial.
He said: "Maybe there is more pressure. They (the directors) look for quicker and better results because there are people who are investing a lot of money. This possibly makes the owners a little more nervous."
