Ribery rips Pep again
Print Edition
FRENCH winger Franck Ribery has again criticized his former Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola during the club’s tour of the United States, claiming the Spaniard talks too much and lacks experience.
Guardiola is now head coach of Manchester City after three seasons with Bayern and Ribery has wasted no time in criticizing his former boss.
Bayern lost 3-5 to AC Milan on Wednesday in a penalty shootout after their International Champions Cup friendly in Chicago finished 3-3 after extra time.
Ribery netted twice, including a 90th-minute penalty, and has rediscovered his form after injury restricted his number of appearances last season.
Carlo Ancelotti, 57, has replaced Guardiola as Bayern coach and Ribery has been quick to praise the Italian, at the expense of the 45-year-old Spaniard.
According to Ribery, 33, Ancelotti is an experienced coach, “totally different” from Guardiola, who “has not had a long career as a coach” and the player says he feels “motivated and liberated” again on the pitch.
“I don’t need a coach to tell me what I have to do right on the pitch when I have the ball,” added Ribery.
Having sometimes had a strained relationship with Guardiola, the Frenchman says Ancelotti has given Bayern “what we have been missing a bit”.
In Sport Bild magazine, Ribery continued his criticism of Guardiola, pointing to the Spaniard’s lack of experience despite winning 14 titles in four years with Barcelona and seven trophies in three years with Bayern.
“He is still a young coach. He lacks experience. Sometimes he talks too much, football is very simple,” added the Frenchman.
