[edit] Rasta's comments re heavy POV

Thety look suspiciously like partisan quotes by someone who hates La Volpe. Bona Fides 21:01, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

I dont't know very much about this issue, but if the qutes are real then they seem fair to me. Rjm656s 16:58, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

If you're saying that this article's POV because you get the impression I don't like Lavolpe, sorry guys I just don't see it. I've included the quote that the Mexican team had 'remarkable rise in fortunes' under Lavolpe's tenure, as well as the fact he was voted 'Manager of the tournament' by one newspaper, and praise from the widely respected former Celtic manager, Martin O'Neill. All of its additional relevant info, and doesn't show any negative slant towards the guy. He was a popular manager in the international media during the World Cup and the article now reflects it.

Lavolpe's arguments with authority - whether its the press, FIFA, or for that matter the Mexican FA by eating donuts under a parasol while watching his players sweat it out in training - are in many ways admirable traits. Show independence of spirit, a willingness to run risks and do the unconventional. All can be positive qualities.

So please let's take down this NPOV statement at the start?

Ok, just want to make sure it's not a vendetta; there's way too much childishness among football articles. Geez. One guy wrote how Team A stole its colors from team B. Lots of silly stuff... Football almost
