Please ban this boring game of cricket. Imagine 5 days of play that keeps people boring. Nowadays no one is watching cricket thanks to football. My son told me to play football and i was very happy hearing that. Everyone is interest in football. It is a GOD given sport whereas CRICKET is a devil sport, only make money and fool the people
I can imagine the intelligence levels of the argentine board to have apponted a personality like him, with controversies and drug usage etc. And the team has to be the most overrated teams..every world cup, they are talked of as a contender, but their last world cup was 25 years back!!! They are good at hammering low level teams, like this years world cup, and in this respect just like team India inc ricket. Beat all weak teams, but when it comes to tougher challenge, get beaten 4-0!!
ALL IND SPORTS BODY CAN TAKE A CUE FM ARGENTINA THAT PERFORMANCE MATTER & NOT THE FAME OF THE PERFORMER. IN IND PPL WHO DONT KNOW THE ABCD OF SPROTS ARE HEADING THE FEDERATION & GIVES STAEMENT THAT WE ARE EYING 2025 OLYMPICS & NOT FORTHCOMING OLY. THIS HAS STARTED EVER SINCE KALMADI HAS TAKEN CHARGE OF THE SPORTS BODY. LIKE OUR COUNTRY EVEN OUR SPORT BODY IS MANAGED BY CORRUPT CONGRESS OFFICIALS WHICH TILL TODAY WE FIND SOLACE IN 1 OLY GOLD OR ANY OTHER SPORTS
maradona is a great player. he knew that not many great players cant ne good coaches still he went and coached the team in difficult times. his coaching skills are debatable but i feel he was a true patroit for argentina. i feel the team that maradona had was not right in terms of some players being dropped as here was a personality clash and messi was the nuclues of the team,he also did not deliver. i feel maradona should be remembered as one of the greatest players this planet has ever seen and as someone who has selflessly worked for the image of a proud argentine heriatege of being a footballing powerhouse.

Well said Mr.Rakesh. He is the greatest ever to play the game. He has become immortal in football history. We are fortunate to see his game & see him alive in our lifetime. I am a big fan of him. He single handedly won the world cup for Argentina in 1986. But yes as coach he did mistakes. He could not see the weaknesses in the defenses of Argentina during this world cup.
Maradona has been sacked as coach of Argentina football team....its a good decision....it is the performance that matters and not the individual.As a player he was a legend during his time but coaching is something else.There was lot of hopes pinned on maradona and his team when they were victorious against teams like Nigeria,Greece etc....but his team failed miserably in the test against Germany in the recently concluded World Cup.....he should also get out of his sheer arrogance to regain popularity.
Maradona, dont worry. Apply to Indian Football fed as coach, buy your way through politically-supported Federation heads,become Coach of National team and enjoy your stint without any accountability or responsibility. If at worse, sone prickly issues come up in future, resign and hold a press conference and claim that you are being unfairly criticised for sexual abuse of female staff by those not happy with your success and achievements - best chance to have a working retirement with all pay and no "dues" !!
