Hello! This is the TOP Football channel!

This time we have prepared famous stories for you about famous football players who dared to clash with their coaches! Get ready: this is going to be a very intense and hot episode!

7. Ronaldo and Benitez

Cristiano Ronaldo is a great and ambitious footballer! He hates losing and obviously strives to become a coach after his playing career! Despite this, the Portuguese will never get along with anyone who goes against him. This was the reason why his work with Rafael Benitez at Real Madrid was ruined.

The problems began when Cristiano didn’t like the Spanish specialist's coaching methods. The Real Madrid leader even allowed himself to leave training without permission! Benitez, in turn, told reporters that Ronaldo is one of the best with whom he worked, but still not the best! After such a scandal, communication between Cristiano and Rafa changed for the worse, as did the results of Real Madrid.

In November 2015, Ronaldo took some desperate measures! Gazzetta Dello Sport wrote that the player came to Florentino Perez and gave him an ultimatum: “It’s either me leaving, or Benitez”. The President of Real Madrid preferred Ronaldo!

6. Bale and Zidane

5. Pogba and Mourinho

4. Ibrahimovic and Guardiola

Not every coach will refuse Zlatan Ibrahimovic! But Pep Guardiola could!

As a reminder, in 2009 Zlatan moved to Barcelona from Inter as a superstar. The Catalans signed the Swedish for 46 million euros and even gave Samuel Eto'o in return.

Ibrahimovic played 46 matches in all tournaments in Barca, scored 22 goals and made 12 assists. At the Camp Nou, he was definitely not an extra player, but everything changed because of the striker's disagreement with Lionel Messi.

At the time, the Argentinean wanted more space on the pitch and complained to Guardiola that Ibrahimovic was taking too much offense on his back, even if that was fine with Ibra.

However, due to a complaint from Leo Pep, he changed his tactic system and moved Zlatan to the flank, so that Messi got the main role in the center of the attack.

Ibra couldn’t adapt, quarreled with Guardiola and was immediately loaned to Milan.

3. Balotelli and Mancini

Mario Balotelli - a child in the body of an adult! The stupid actions of the Italian made the whole football world laugh, but not the former coach of Manchester City Roberto Mancini! The manager had to endure conflicts with Super Mario for several years and at the same time squeeze the maximum out of him on the field.

And Balotelli knew how to anger everyone! It’s worth recalling how he was lazy in training and especially by letting go of his scoring chances during friendly matches. In addition, 7 years ago, Mario almost got into a fight with Mancini himself in training! Then other members of the coaching staff managed to separate them, but the coach could no longer tolerate this behavior!

Although Balotelli became the Premier League champion under the leadership of Roberto, after that scuffle, City immediately put the player on a transfer and sold him to Italy. Fair enough, I would say!

2. Evra, Anelka and Domenech

1. Beckham and Ferguson

First place of our top is occupied by Sir Alex Ferguson for his famous conflict with David Beckham at Manchester United!

In 2003, the Red Devils lost the FA Cup match to Arsenal. At the end of the match, David Beckham asked for a substitution and left the pitch due to a rough tackle with Ashley Cole. After the final whistle, Cole entered the Mancunians' locker room to inquire about the health of Beckham, with whom they were friends.

However, Ferguson saw their meeting and was terribly angry! The Scotsman, in front of all United's players, criticized Beckham, saying that Cole "got him on the flank." But instead of being silent, David replied: "Okay, then Arsene Wenger beat you."

BOOM! And then something terrible happened! The ferocious Ferguson grabbed someone's boot that was lying next to him and threw it right at Bex's head!

This is how the great Sir Alex talked about that conflict in his autobiography:

“He was around 12 feet from me. Between us on the floor lay a row of boots. David swore. I moved towards him, and as I approached I kicked a boot. It hit him right above the eye. Of course, he rose to have a go at me and the players stopped him. "

Oh, sometimes Fergie's methods and his winning mentality is giving birth to a real war! It is quite expected that Beckham began the next season not in Manchester, but in Real Madrid.

The player and coach have come a long way, but parted not in the friendliest way. Although in May last year, they still met at the match between the legends of Manchester United and Bayern Munich.
As for today everything is fine between them! Let it stay that way!
