Krkic denies Guardiola criticism
Posted Sunday, November 13, 2011 by ESPN
Roma striker Bojan Krkic has denied ever mouthing a bad word about Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola.
The 21-year-old has made no secret about his displeasure with the lack of first-team action during his time at the Nou Camp, which led to him moving to Rome in the summer.
But the Italian insists he holds no personal grudge against Guardiola.
"I was a little bit surprised, because I was on the same list of people who criticised Guardiola," he told EFE. "I believe that I have never criticised Guardiola, on the contrary.
"I believe that Barcelona are where they are in part because of Guardiola, who is the best coach that Barca could have.
"I am very calm, he knows that I never criticised him when I was there and I will not do it now."
The player then remarked that he is happy with life at Roma, who are seventh in the Serie A standings.
"We are a young team, with a lot of new players and a different mentality, but everything is going well and we are eager to make the club succeed," he added.
