The landing of Pep Guardiola in the bench of the Camp Nou supposed a revolution in the FC Barcelona, that in the season 2008-09 conquered his first triplete. The team that directed the Catalan was of less to more and proclaimed victorious in League, Champions and Glass of Rey, although there were some members of the changing room that had some frictions with the trainer.

One of them was Samuel Eto'or, to the that never liked him be leading of the 'clean' that the one of Santpedor made in the staff. The ex player gave gone out to some 'holy cows' as Ronaldinho or Deco, and although it also wanted to give off of the Cameroonian, finally gave him an opportunity. The forward, in spite of everything, never arrived to forgive his decision.

In an interview conceded to 'beIN Sports', the today integral of the Qatar SC has remembered those days, and has explained that the trainer, that rose after initiating his career in the benches with the Barcelona subsidiary, did not finish of congeniar with his pupilos: "Pep has lived all his life in Barcelona, but during the years that happened in Barcelona, he did not understand to the staff. He did not live the life of our group".

"I said him to Guardiola, 'will excuse with me, because I am I the one who will do that the Barcelona win, no Messi'. I was I the one who did to win to the Barça and Pep would have to ask me pardon", has signalled, although still today keeps, ask the one who ask, that the Argentinian is the best footballer of the history, and that there is not possible discussion. According to the tip, this yes, there are more arguments that justify his theory.

"That was the situation in that moment. Messi would surface later, but can ask him to Xavi, Iniesta and to the others, that was my era", underlines Eto'or, although the statistics contradict his affirmations. In the campaign 2008-09, the only in which they coincided the three, the one of Douala participated in 52 parties and contributed 36 goals and 8 assistances, whereas the one of Rosario already consolidated with 38 targets and 18 definite passes. Definitely, both were key pieces in the successes of the Barça.

Eto'Or appreciates that Pep him 'gave' a triplete with the Inter of Milan

The quotations of Samuel Eto'or to Pep Guardiola in his conversation with 'beIN' do not finish here, but the crack has related, with some irony, the moment of his farewell of the Barça, that arrived hardly a year after the arrival of the míster, just after the conquest of the triplete: "My lawyer said me that the club had put up for sale me in the market of signings and that went on request of Guardiola".

"To day of today is clear that this movement and the opportunity that Pep gave me will remain in the history because it allowed me be a part even bigger of the history of the football when going me to the Inter. It allowed him to the Inter make the best traspaso in the history of the football", has defined, signalling that although his individual registers went down, could not go him better to collective level, since the 'nerazzurri' also conquered the triple crown and turned him into the only footballer in reaching this attainment in two consecutive courses.
