Zinedine Zidane has assumed office as new manager of Real Madrid on a two and half year deal, after the sack of former Madrid manager Raphael Benitez, but insist that there is no basis he should be compared with Bayern Munich Boss Pep Guardiola.
Pep was appointed as manager of Barcelona team A after satisfying his employers with his performance at Barca team B, and his appointment brought greater honour and fame to both himself and Barcelona.
Zidane's appointment as manager of Madrid followed the same principle as that of Guardiola, as he (Zidane) satisfied his employers while in charge of Madrid Team B, and this has so far led to comparison. But Zidane insists, "why the comparison? As Players we were not compared, so why do they want to compare us as coach"
He continues "Guardiola is a good coach, and I respect him for that, but the fact remains that I will do my best as Zidane. There is no need for any comparison.
