Kaka Should Be An Accountant - Mancini
Inter Coach Roberto Mancini sympathizes with Kaka for his rough treatment at the hands of defenders, but says that if he doesn't want to be fouled anymore he should quit football and become an accountant.
Kaka has complained in the press recently about the excessive fouls he is suffering recently, and that he is not receiving enough protection from referees.
This provoked Milan Vice President Adriano Galliani to claim that the Brazilian could see his career ended at a very young age, just like former star Marco Van Basten, unless something is done about the situation.
Now Mancini, who himself was subjected to some rough treatment as a player, has had his say on the matter regarding Kaka.
"There are fouls and there always have been," he said.
"In recent years the situation hasn't changed much. Sadly whoever's job it is to be an attacker will always suffer too many fouls.
"If one doesn't want tackles, they should become an accountant."
Mancini is currently preparing his Inter team for tonight's big Serie A match with Roma at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
