Man Utd's Queiroz blasts Real Madrid president Perez

Manchester United assistant manager Carlos Queiroz has slammed Real Madrid president Florentino Perez.

In an interview on Barcelona radio, Queiroz spoke of his difficult season in charge at Real, saying: "Florentino Perez is the only one who is in charge at Madrid. Only he makes decisions, even against the opinion of the trainer."

"A year ago, I left the club and preferred to let time pass before saying anything about what I think. I was not the culprit of all the evils of the team, as some tried to make believe. That hurt me a lot."

"We had a very important player in Makelele, who the director allowed to leave. I asked Perez and Valdano to replace him, but they did nothing."

"Florentino blamed me for everything. This was wrong."

"It's good to go out and try to sign the best players in the world. But a team is a like an orchestra and you cannot just have violinists and expect to produce great music."
