Thuram critical of Mourinho
September 11, 2006


Barcelona's Lilian Thuram has criticised Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho for his treatment of former defender William Gallas.


The former Parma and Juventus defender was shocked by Chelsea's claims that Gallas had threatened to score an own goal or get sent off, if selected against his will by Mourinho.

Thuram believes that any issues between the club and player should have been dealt with in-house.

"I thought it (the Gallas accusation) must be a joke," Thuram told The People. "But Mourinho must have a problem with the French.

"It's not the way to treat players. You never expect something like this from Chelsea, who are trying to be one of the top clubs in the world.

"He doesn't seem to get on with us. He should learn how to deal with his problem, so he doesn't have a trauma.

"First, it was these illusions about Claude Makelele and slavery - I don't know where he got that from. And then the attack on Gallas.

"I've been in football a long time and I have never seen anything like it. Internal problems have always been solved internally, not in public.

"Gallas told us about his problems with Mourinho a long time ago and the way he treats players differently, but this is just completely out of the ordinary."

First people who defend Thuram call those who criticise him racists, then Thuram calls someone who criticises a sole, obviously disgruntled Frenchman, a French hater. What is with Thuram and his supporters?

Do the world a favor and not only control your arms, but also shut your mouth, you prententious merc.

This was a week ago, he's just trying to shine in the media again. The case has already been closed and he's making it in the public again rather than internal.

Whats with me and Thuram? The guy believes he's God's gift to the media... the crem de la crem of reason... and thinks he has the capacity to speak out against situations he has no clue about, which in this case was obviously blatantly exaggerated by Gallas..

Everything that comes from Thuram's mouth is simply condescending.

I think Thuram has become senile.
:p

This guy has an incredible capacity of getting on people nerves by reacting in the press. I remember him giving his views on the fights in the French cités. Sarkozy immediately reacted by saying that he loved Thuram as a footballer, but that he should just play football, not do politics.

oh... and...



















Lilian who?

but because he wears glasses off the field & has a larger-than-your-average-footballer vocabulary (I mean he doesn't say "erm, you know, at the end of the day") the press seem to be in awe of him & hang on his every word
