It’s all coming out in Jerzy Dudek’s new autobiography.
The former Liverpool goalkeeper has been taking aim at everyone and anyone in his new book, including three of the biggest stars in La Liga.
The Polish shot stopper finished up his professional career at Real Madrid where he witnessed many El Clasicos from the bench. He explained in the book that under Guardiola, “Barcelona were a provocative side”.
He singled out Lionel Messi, who he claims “would say such rude things to Pepe and [Sergio] Ramos, things you would not imagine from a such a quiet and seemingly good person. As well as Messi, Barça were a really provocative team to play against.”
Dudek added that this behaviour used to really irk Jose Mourinho when he was in charge at Madrid.
“They were so ready to provoke you and they were able to do it to perfection; that hurt Mourinho a lot. He said to us that we had too much respect, while [Barça] had none for us. He was angry with us that, after the 5-0, we swapped shirts with them.”
Dudek continued burning bridges by revealing that “Casillas said that Fernando Torres was the most over-valued player in Spanish football”.
To cap it all off, he also describes Real Madrid legends Raul and Cristiano Ronaldo as “egocentrics”, arguing that “they prefer that the team wins 2-1 with their goals, than 5-0 without them on the score sheet.”
He also recounted an incident after Madrid lost to Lyon in the Champions League. He explained how Cristiano Ronaldo allegedly ignored a group of kids who came to a training session looking to get his autograph.When Dudek asked him why he behaved this way with the kids, CR7 replied,
“I came to Madrid to win, not sign autographs.”
The whole biography reads a bit like Father Ted Crilly’s Golden Cleric acceptance speech. We sincerely looking forward to the English translation of the chapter on “Liars and Twats”.
