MARADONNA SPELLS OUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MOURINHO AND GUARDIOLA
Argentine legend and Al Wasl trainer has lauded Real Madrid coach, Jose Mourinho for his club’s performance in the La Liga league, he’s however advised Barcelona to focus on the Champions League rather than La Liga cos the Primera Division is Madrid’s. “I do not think Barcelona will play anything but the Champions League.” He added.
The retired footballer also voiced out the difference between Mourinho and Guardiola.
“I adore Mourinho. As a man, as a trainer and coach and as a psychologist, for me he is the best. Mourinho can turn a coin into a rose and that’s the reason for the big difference on my affection for him. I’m not in love with him or anything, but he is an exceptional guy,”
On the catalan, he claimed “Pep is an excellent man. The fact that he can create something from nothing makes him stand out from other coaches. I know Guardiola very well, but maybe he does not get as much merit because he has impressive players. Let’s not forget though that Pep is very young and has a great career ahead of him.”

UAE FINES DIEGO MARADONA
Diego Maradona |
1986 World Cup winner, Diego Maradonna has been fined $2,450 on 29th December 2011 by the United Arab Emirates for verbally abusing Al Ain coach, Cosmin Olaroiu.
The Argentine said the coach and his staff celebrated the winning goal in an unprofessional manner, saying he was rude and didn’t deserve credit for its early season success. Though, the Romanian coach referred to Maradona has a person who doesn’t have a clear mind (drawing clues from his history of drug and alcohol abuse), he hasn’t been sanctioned.
Since he arrived Dubai, Maradona has repeatedly criticized referees who he claims were biased against his club.
Carlo Nohra, Chief Executive, Al Ain said his sanction was justified and his actions would no longer be tolerated in the league.

MESSI AND NEYMAR: "PELE TOOK THE WRONG MEDICATION"-MARADONA
A week ago, Brazilian football legend, Edson Arantes Do Nascimento, popularly called Pele stated that Santos striker, Neymar is technically better than Argentina’s Lionel Messi only that the former has a lot to improve if he wants to be considered world best player.
Reacting to that statement, Diego Maradonna, UAE Al Wasl coach who hasn’t been on good terms with Pele declared that the latter must have taken the wrong drugs when he made the statement. Though he acknowledged Neymar is good but he would never be able to match Messi’s records.
His words, “it seems Pele took the wrong medication. Instead of taking his night pill, he took the morning pill. He got confused and didn’t know what he was talking about. I suggest next time that he should take the right pills before making any suggestions and that he should change his doctor.”
