Costa2000:
You got it wrong,tapping someones shoulder here in Spain is normal,we do it in place of work thats not lack of respect,Pep is not happy with Cr7 thats all, nd not b/c of tapping.

I am very disappointed with the Spanish players at Real Madrid. Even if I am not a huge fan of Mourinho, they should support him in his quest for the Champions League. CR7 has done a lot for Real Madrid. It would have been nice for Casillas to at least vote him being his captain.

Even if they have a problem with Mourinho's approach, they should have been diplomatic about it.

I see CR7 leaving Spain this summer to PSG. He is really alone in Spain. No love at all for him there.

Oahray: Lol... Trust Nigerians. I am pretty sure majority didnt watch the video. I dunno where you guys got the idea of a handshake, or are you guys just commenting on what you read? Try to notice little details when you watch something.
There is a head obstructing our view so we do not really see any handshake gesture from Ronaldo. You guys only assume he did offer one.

When a person offers us a handshake, by reflex, our eyes focus on the offered hand, before moving to the owner's face. Nothing like that happened in that video. Guardiola turned to look at the person behind, long enough for the person to have said something, then turned away without looking down and without a word.

In my opinion, after watching the video severally, here is what happened:
Ronaldo is walking past (probably going back to his seat). He actually bumps into a seated Guardiola with his elbow. Guardiola turns to see who it is, Ronaldo stops and probably says something I think is an apology. Guardiola turns away and Ronaldo pauses for a moment then walks away.

Watch the video carefully and don't just swallow everything the media feeds you!
Well, many of us are not stuck with nairaland as you, I don't need to watch it cos I have seen different pictures of it on dailymail.co.uk before it even got to nairaland there was a particular picture that showed how ronaldo's hand was left hanging.

[size=15pt]For your information, ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN VOICE. Our old father says ''Principal in life cannot work with somebody or anybody's clock.

It's obvious that MESSI will never do that because he's got the manner and respect in all his doing. Messi is a humble player. Not like the ''Thug & Tout Players like Ronaldo, Baloteli, Rooney, etc... So tell me how is that possible for Pep to react to what Messi can never do? grin Be real bro.[/size]

If its that one I totally dis agree with u cos how would u say dat messi can never do such a thing. In case u don't know people change and human beings are totally unpredictable.
Unless messi has now bcome ur god since he has no stain of sin. U urelf b real.

Lmao...the Ronaldo fans really do have Ronaldo attitudes: check their posts, they are all rude and insultive. That's why they'd defend him with all their might. They tend to see their selves in the arrogant and rude Ronaldo.
Ronaldo forever in KING MESSI shadow...fact.

duuuh...Casillas has the right to vote for whoever he deems fit. Besides, he voted for Ronaldo as his 2nd best player so what's the fuss?? And yep, Ronaldo and Mou aren't loved in Madrid because they're all classless and damnn too Petty.
Re: Guardiola Snubs Ronaldo's Handshake At Ballon d'Or Awards by Nobody: 7:56am On Jan 11, 2013
Guardiola behaved like a spoilt kid.Onfield rivalry mustn't be shown off field.That's an act of unprofessionallism.Lionel can't do that.
As for Cr7,he can't win ballon d or in Madrid cos even his team mates like Cassillas,Marcelo and Ramos will die if that happens
Cassillas doesn't even celebrate his goals again.It repeated in copa feel rey tie against Celta vigo even when Cristiano's hatrick redeemed them from elimination.
In Spain,Cr7 is alone.

Honestly, we have a lot of uncivilized, barbaric humans on nairaland. What is arrogant about Ronaldo tapping Pep's shoulder? I have seen players on tapp thier coach on their cheeks in Europe. Once I saw Evans touched Rooney's head. Pep has a personal issue with Ronaldo. Ronaldo's act in our culture could be seen as arrogant/disrespect. However, in the West, its a a different ball game.

ibnquasale: Most of us are already fallen for this cheap respect thing being preached by Barcelona. I am a Chelsea fan and i dont have any issue with CR7, Messi or Guardiola, but the idea of humility is what baffles me.

The Barcelona players are acting script... on the pitch they are so arrogant and can simulate like mad, influence and mislead referees unnecessarily, yet they claim to show respect (maybe off field sha).

Ronaldo on the other hand may not be "humble", but what of the Barcelona player and their former coach? Pep Guardiola has no respect for anyone, even his players, he sidelined Pique for his relationship with Shakira (Can't a young man build his family himself without the influence of a coach?), got angry with Zlatan because the later comes to training with his sport car ( even Kobe flies his Chopper to training, while Lebron JAmes uses his bike most times,every man has a right to live) what of Etoo's case?

The truth is if he had knew the disgraceful act would be caught on tape, He (Guardiola) would have gladly accepted the handsome handshake!


I am Manchester United fan and Barcelona players are the humblest set of football players I have ever seem in my entire football watching life...maybe off the field, in their private lives, they are different; but as far as i am concerned, when they are in the Camp Nou or in front of the camera, they behave as they are expected to. If you follow La Liga, you hardly see the team get booed even in the 'harshest' of away grounds.

Its evident in their demeanor, the way they celebrate their goals, their comments at press conferences, even from their relatively quiet lifestyle...everything about them echoes modesty and humility.

No wonder they say...they are more than just a club!

This is not true. The 38sec video doesnt suggest anything similar to a snub.
watch from the 15th sec, it was as if Ronaldo touched his shoulder as a sign of greeting.

The problem is with Mourinho who wants every football lovers to take him as the best. He wants to force every persons to take him higher than every other coach. It does follow that. Allow the people to watch his performance. That will speak for him. The two clubs are ok but with Barca higher than Real to some extend.

dotcom_na_me_na_me: [size=24pt]You people should say the truth. RONALDO should have show kind of respect.
If anyone one here believe RONALDO was right by taping Pep., then such person has been taping his own father at home.
If you can believe Ronaldo was right, then you've been taping your dad or mum at home by giving a backslap upper cut of their backhead as tap grin.
ok, for instance, assuming Ronaldo approach Pep in a good manner just like the way you can approach your uncle at home, do you think pep will snubs him? Hell nooo.

Being a fan of a soccer club is a sin becos it beclouds your sense of judgement. When I saw this thread and then the video, I thought, for once, Barca (or anti-madrid) fans will condemn the attitude of their idol Pep Guadiola. But what do I see ... . Then Mourinho is right for his eye poking after all.

If a coach is defined by what his player(s) contributes to his success then we can conviniently say that Mourinho would be nothing without Deco and Carvalho in Porto, Milito, Etoo and Sneider in Inter and Ronaldo in Madrid.
Ferguson would be nothing without Cantona, Beckham, Cole, Rooney, ronaldo etc.

Guy give Pep the credit he deserves.
