Diego Maradona is the perfect example of exactly how far a fantastic playing career can take you in football. Fortunately for Maradona, managing at international level is only made more difficult when a manager tries to impose a style and he is perfectly suited for this job as all he has to do is get these talented players to play at their best.

If Maradona can do this, Argentina have a very very good chance of winning the World Cup and as of today, you will get 7/1 on them doing this at expekt.com - a very good price considering.
