Legendary footballer Diego Maradona criticized the head coach of Argentina's Jorge Sampaoli.
"Today we have such a team of Argentina that I'm frightened when I look at its composition. I think that there are better players than those whom this person chooses (Jorge Sampaoli. ) ", - told Maradona DirecTV Sports.
The world champion in the Argentine national team does not understand how Sampaoli could not call Gonzalo Higuain.
"This is a lack of respect. Higuain could score those goals that would change the course of some meetings. You can not remove such a player from the team to call a football player who never played in the national team ".
Under a player who has never played in the national team, Maradona has in mind Mauro Icardi, first summoned to the "blue and white".
Previously, the ex-coach of the national team of Argentina has repeatedly criticized Icardi, calling him "a traitor" for the fact that he married Wanda Nara, the ex-wife of his fellow Sampdoria Maxi Lopez.
"If they wanted to find a resemblance to Gabriel Batistuta in Icardi, they were very far from it," said Maradona.
Recall, a few days ago, Argentina under the leadership of Sampaoli played a zero draw with Uruguay. The next match the Argentines will hold against Venezuela on the night of 5 to 6 September.
