BT Sports commentators Leo Ferdinand and Steve McManaman praised Zidane today, saying the French coach is one of the top coaches in football.
In the early hours of this morning, Real Madrid drew 0-0 away to Liverpool, eliminating the Reds 3-1 on aggregate to reach the final four of the Champions League. Ferdinand said: "This guy has incredible abilities, he has collected one trophy after another in a very short period of time. Three Champions League titles as manager? He's phenomenal. He didn't talk much, but he didn't talk much when he was a player. He speaks with football when he plays football, and the same goes for him as manager. ”
McManaman said: "He's done a great job and if he's another coach, we've blown him up. In fact, because he was so brilliant, so low-key, so relaxed and friendly, people instead thought he wasn't a tactical genius, but in reality he was really a tactical genius. ”
