Ilie Nastase tells Andy Murray he doesn’t need a new coach as he is good enough without one


Tennis legend Ilie Nastase has told Andy Murray he is wasting his time looking for a new coach because he doesn’t need one.

Murray parted company with Ivan Lendl last month and has been linked with some high-profile names after revealing this week that he is stepping up his search for a replacement.

But former world No.1 Nastase is not impressed and is certainly not a fan of the world’s best players turning back the clock and hiring former stars to iron out their faults.http://metrouk2.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/1000x67038.jpg?w=650&h=435&crop=1#038;h=670

Murray’s appointment of Lendl was followed late last year by 17-time major champion Roger Federer recruiting former Swedish sensation Stefan Edberg while world No.2 Novak Djokovic has hired the services of Boris Becker.


But Nastase, who was US Open champion in 1972, French Open winner the following year and beaten Wimbledon finalist in 1972 and 1976, said: ‘I don’t think these guys need a coach.http://metrouk2.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/665x100058.jpg?w=650&h=977&crop=1#038;h=1000

‘They need a good friend maybe. Or a good-looking girl, I don’t know. I don’t think they former stars can help much. What can they do? He Murray knows how to play the game.

‘I think he just needs someone to trust him and practice with him. Not necessarily a big guy or name, I don’t believe in that.’

Nastase, who is now an ambassador for the Laureus world sports awards, added: ‘Djokovic did well without Boris Becker. Maybe he’s using him to boost his image, I don’t know.’ by nevel

WWE Raw : The Shield goes hunting and Kane puts Bryan through hell

Image
Stephanie McMahon called out WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan Something is not sitting right with one of WWE’s principal owners, and it’s the state of affairs surrounding the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Daniel Bryan. Despite the heartfelt address the “Yes!” Man delivered to the WWE Universe less than an hour earlier, Stephanie McMahon – who’s lately asserted herself as Bryan’s primary front-office foe thanks to Triple H’s preoccupation with The Shield – more or less insinuated Bryan’s injury was proof positive of what she’s been saying all along: That Bryan can’t hang with the “A-plus players” of WWE. Watch: Kane puts Bryan through hell She demanded a face-to-face with the Champion of Champions, but what she got was a glimpse of just how far she’d gone by returning Kane’s mask to him: The former Director of Operations emerged instead of Bryan, dragging the bearded husk of his former tag-team partner and depositing him on the stage Stephanie, who ...

the best and MLB worst players of april 2014

Happy days are here again – it’s time to discuss the best and worst players of the first month of the 2014 MLB season. As usual, there were several standout performers you never expected, and several stars that fell flat. AL Best Hitter of April – Jose Bautista. With all due respect to Mike Trout, who is a better all-around player than Bautista, Toronto’s slugger was in vintage form to start 2014. He hit .293/.467/.598 with eight homers and *30* walks. That’s right – Bautista has already matched or eclipsed the 2013 walk total of Yadier Molina, Chris Johnson, Manny Machado, and Jean Segura. Needless to say, he’s leading the league in that category, and his .304 ISO is third in the American League behind Jose Abreu and Albert Pujols. Yeah…I think his wrist is healthy now. Honorable mentions: Trout, Abreu, Pujols, Matt Joyce, Nelson Cruz AL Worst Hitter of April – Billy Butler. Billy Butler is a designated hitter. He has an .031 ISO thanks to just three doubles and no homers. He has w...
