The magical madness of diego maradona

[MORPHEUSP]

some quotes by maradona during the WC with some sarcastic comments on them

"I prefer women. I am dating Veronica, she is 31, she is blonde and she is beautiful. No, I've not gone limp-wristed! But I like to acknowledge and congratulate my players when they play as well as they did today."

- Diego responds to an innocent inquiry about his tendency to pat the bottoms of his players with the most convoluted 'you're gayer than I am!' retort in recorded history.


"I like Mourinho a lot. I've got his phone number, I might call him. We spent hours talking about football, attacking and defensive tactics. He seemed to me a guy to take to your bedside table and ask him each time you need something."

- Most people take books to their bedside tables, Maradona takes world-renowned coaches. But he hasn't gone limp-wristed — he can't stress that enough.

"Making Messi happy is everyone's pride, including his team-mates'. Because today you see Messi pulling a joke on Pastore, on Garce and he has never met them before in his life.”

- Our hero reveals the banter inside the Albiceleste camp is unrivalled. And just wait until they all know each other!

"And he talks to Verón and I spy on them: La Bruja [the Witch] is an intellectual of football, because he knows much more of football than Leo, but they start talking about it and the bastard answers back."

- Maradona's plan to make Messi happy by casually insulting him makes great progress.

"Many journalists should apologise to the players. I'm not suggesting you drop your trousers, but it would be honest and great so we all get along better.”

– For a someone so resolutely straight, Maradona's comments follow an interesting pattern.

“I have 23 wild cats prepared to leave their skins on the pitch. With each training session it gets harder to decide.”

- Maradona reveals the quality at his disposal. At yet he still picked Martin Demichelis.


“We’re going to reach a level that the [Argentina] shirt deserves… Argentines should relax because to beat this team our rivals will have to put all their beef on the grill.”

- Maradona reveals that Germany must be the kings of the barbeque.

"Go back to the museum.”

- The eccentric former superstar show's his reverence for Pele, somewhat surprisingly resisting the urge to mention the Brazilian's endorsement of certain drugs.

“Of course, as long as the women do all the work.”

- Maradona grabbed headlines by allowing his players to have sex. The bloody mentalist.
