The Colombian Faustino Asprilla had an outstanding presence in European football, first in Italy and then in England, but he also stood out for his personal life.

“He had no head. I didn’t like training, it was hard for me to understand what the coaches were asking me to do, I was used to playing freely and instead here you have to be faithful to your tactics, woe to you if you make a mistake”, he told Gazzetta dello Sport.
The Valle del Cauca player had a good present in Parma, a team in which he was with great figures and which put him at the top of soccer in that country.
“And then I did not lead the life of a perfect athlete: I went to bed late, and almost never alone, I woke up very late, I liked to go to discos and parties. Anyway, in all this mess that was my life, football was not in the first place. This was my limit. But I had a lot of fun and I think I entertained a lot of people,” he recounted.
Regarding modern football, Asprilla was emphatic in affirming that he has to see it, but that he does not fill it.

“I look at it, but I am not amused. All side passes, little dribbling. And then those coaches who look like troublemakers in front of the benches and yell at the players what to do. The prominence of the coaches annoys me a lot, it seems that they have invented football and maybe they don’t even know how to block a ball”.
And he added: “Do you realize that nowadays, to get a shot on television, there are assistants who show the players who have to enter the field how they have to move, what they have to do, who they have to tick? We are crazy? Do you think that players do not know what to do? Set them free, let them have fun and you will see that we will all have much more fun.
