Diego MARADONA took to the airwaves once again to speak his mind.
Speaking with the media, MARADONA commented on a number of topics. From Mauro ICARDI’s inclusion to the Argentina National Team, to Lionel MESSI to much more. Here’s what he had to say:
Diego MARADONA on Mauro ICARDI:
“Before calling ICARDI, I’d call BENEDETTO. And taking AGUERO off for ICARDI is crazy.”
Diego MARADONA on Jorge SAMPAOLI:
“I’m very angry with SAMPAOLI. Apart from that, I don’t understand why he has 8 coaches (coaching staff). Better he stays home. SAMPAOLI does not know more than BAUZA.”
“To me, SAMPAOLI appears fake. He told me he wanted to get to know me and pay hommage at Sevilla. After that, we never spoke.”
“To me, it’s an embarassement to play Singapore. They just got 11 players and told them to wear their shirt.”
Diego MARADONA on Lionel MESSI, Cristiano
“Between MESSI and RONALDO? I’d pick MESSI. I don’t remember having seen MESSI play badly. I’d like Cristiano as an Argentinian. Every ball he touches is a goal.”
“With the current state of things, I would sign to play the playoffs (for the World Cup).”
