8 insane quotes by footballers on managers

#1. Nicolas Anelka on Raymond Domenech

The FIFA 2010 world cup was arguably one of the least entertaining editions of the tournament in recent years. Spain scored in single digits to lift the world cup but the talking point of that tournament was the fall out in French national team.

Several players refused to play for coach Raymond Domenech after the coach sent Nicolas Anelka home. Before that, during a game he was subbed off at halftime to which he responded with these words : “Son of a w***e” The French striker then went on to say this about the coach in a fit of fury during an interview:

“I insulted a coach who the whole of France had already insulted, a coach who had never won anything apart from Ligue 2 and the Toulon tournament. When you have been coached by [Carlo] Ancelotti and other greats, it's hard to be coached by Domenech.”
