Jon McleodMaradonna appointment from the heart
October 30th 2008 20:36
Emotion, however misguided, continually trumps logic in football.
Diego Maradonna has been confirmed as the new Argentina national coach and it is a decision straight from the heart.
Despite one of the greatest playing careers of all, Maradonna’s coaching career consists of three wins, 12 draws and eight defeats in two managerial stints with Racing and Deportivo Mandiyu.
It is an appointment based on no more than celebrity.
Although Argentina are struggling in their bid to qualify for the World Cup, inspiration is something that they are not short of with Messi, Riquelme, Tevez and Aguero in the team.
What they require is the direction of a proven tactician and leader.
