Calendar of FC Barcelona

The son of Diego Armando Maradona, Diego Jr, has raised the controversy in the last hours with the interview that has conceded to the newspaper 'Sport', in which it shows convinced that there is not possible comparison between his father, an alien for him, with "the best of the terrestrial" as it values to the big star of the FC Barcelona and of the albiceleste current.

"Diego is the God of the football, Leo is the best between the human beings", says the son napolitano of the 'Lint', the one who does not see impossible that the Naples give the surprise in the eliminatory against the FC Barcelona. "The Barça has a spectacular staff and, besides, has the advantage of the result of the gone. However, the team of Quique Setién does not live a good moment to psychological level and fits at least a goal against any rival. Therefore I say that the napolitanos, in spite of not being favourite, can put him the difficult things and until arriving to delete it", explains.

"Valverde? What felt has throw to a technician with which are competing to win the championship and the Champions?"

Part of fault of the revival of the Naples has it Gattuso, that has known to go back to merge to the staff after the course of Carlo Ancelotti. This has carried to the partenopei to win the Coppa this season and to classify , at least, for the UEFA Europe League. "They say it the results, but especially says it the big harmony that has gone back to breathe inside the changing room azzurro".

"Gattuso Is a big worker, arrived in silence and put to work, work and work. His Naples no longer is only a team of football, but a family, with mentality and will to fulfil all together his aims. I say you the truth: except which won again the Scudetto, to which never likes me appoint, do not think that right now there is a better team that the Naples in Italy", self-evident the son of Maradona.

"Messi is a phenomenon, but anybody is comparable with my father: it can not compare to terrestrial with aliens"

On the FC Barcelona, Maradona Jr follows without understanding why sacked in his day to Ernesto Valverde when the team was competing still by all the titles. "Have to a full team of talent, with eleven champions, but no to a family. Clearly I can speak of the Barça only like external observer, but something broke in the changing room and follow without understanding the dismissal of Ernesto Valverde. What felt has throw to a technician with which are competing to win the championship and the Champions? With Quique Setién there was even more problems that before".

To Messi plants him like the better second player of the history, after his father. "Of course. I adore to Messi, today is the best of all and Cristiano Ronaldo neither approaches him. The one who criticises him in Argentina does not understand at all of football, my father wants him a lot and speaks me often of him. Leo is a star and also... The better second player of the history".

Messi, the better second of the history?

And it continues in his comparison between Leo Messi and the 'Lint' Maradona: "Messi is a phenomenon, but anybody is comparable with my father: it can not compare to terrestrial with aliens. We can say that Maradona is the God of the football and that Read is the best between the human beings. I'm sorry, but anybody will reach the level of my old. It is impossible".

To complete the podium of better players of the history, the son of Maradona chooses to Ronaldo the 'Phenomenon'. "To Ronaldo, to Ronaldo for real. After these three, afterwards come all the other, although Cruyff deserves a chapter separate by the footprint that left in the philosophy of the football. The Dutch achieved to change this sport by himself same", signals.

And finally, it seems clear to who goes to encourage the son of Maradona (and the own Maradona) in the Camp Nou. "It was an honour for him dress the Barcelona T-shirt and nowadays follows respecting a lot to the club and to his people. However, it can not compare what my father lived in Naples with the of Barça. Naples will have always a special place in his heart, speak of the city and of the team that more marked so much his life like his career", concludes.
