Taste of the Great Interview:
Which was the better team: Milan in the eighties or Barcelona in 2015?
Terry Minton, Twitter
“It’s a very difficult question because football has evolved a lot since the eighties. I think Barcelona are playing much more aggressively these days. It’s also not easy to compare because the rules have changed a lot as well, especially with regard to ambushes. It’s much easier to score because it’s becoming more difficult to push a streak. defense forward.Today, only those who own the ball are in a critical situation,
Why didn’t Juventus fans like it? Was the 2003 Milan-Juventus BL final the right revenge for that?
Nick Goff, Battersea
– Their problem was that I was a Milan and Roma player before, and they didn’t really like it. There was a big competition between Juventus and Milan for the league title in the eighties. I used to be a player in Rome in 1983, when we beat them in our gold-medal fight, even though their great team had Platini, Bonnec, Gentile, Seria and Zoff. I wouldn’t call it revenge, but it was a strange feeling to play in the Champions League final against a team they had just kicked out. That was when I won BL, so my feelings were about joy, not revenge.
– How do you explain the loss of three from zero in the 2005 BL final against Liverpool? What could have been done differently so that the Istanbul finale did not end in this way?
Lance Bowman, London

(FFT: Did the players celebrate in the first half? Did they really feel like they had won the match?) No, no, that’s nonsense! Huge nonsense! We were very happy because we felt we had a great first run, but we knew we were still second. We even win by three or three
– What is the value of selling the club Xabi Alonso and Angel Di Maria during his second season at Real Madrid?
Saacid Almeyda, Facebook
“It caused some confusion, but let’s not forget that we won twenty-two games in a row at the start of the season. After the series ended, Luka Modric and Sergio Ramos were injured and we lost our faith. We reached the semi-finals of the Premier League, but we were out of Juve there and only got second place. in the league.(FFT: Would you have deserved more time to lead Real Madrid?) I knew if we didn’t win I’d have to go. I already took that into account when signing the contract. The history of the club is about this: if you don’t win, you go. I don’t regret anything from that period, it was amazing.It is the dream of every great coach to reach the top of Real Madrid once, because it is the biggest club, rich in history and has fans all over the world.
