Reimond Manco and Christian Cueva are once again at the center of a controversy, this time on a YouTube program hosted by Jefferson Farfán and Roberto Guizasola. Manco was brought in to comment on his comparison with Cueva, which sparked a series of exchanges.
On the program Enfocados, Guizasola provocatively asked the question: “Reimond Manco, the king of kings, or Christian Cueva?”. Manco, after acknowledging the skills of the Sport Boys player, chose not to make a direct comparison, stating that both have had good moments in their careers. “For me, I have to accept it and I have always said it, he has been one of the most technical players I have seen in Peruvian football and in that position,” he commented.
Reimond Manco suggested it would be better for a third person to evaluate both players to avoid biased judgments. Jefferson Farfán reminded Manco that he was sharing his perspective, but Manco, when pressed to choose, preferred a balanced response.
Roberto Guizasola interrupted and asked Manco who had debuted first, to which Manco responded that he was the first. Guizasola encouraged his interlocutor to show more confidence in his answer and told him not to hesitate in choosing his own name. “Believe it. ‘Cholo’, him, dude… Nothing more,” Guizasola said, provoking laughter on the set.
The tension between Manco and Cueva previously stemmed from Manco’s criticism of Paolo Guerrero regarding his performance at Alianza Lima. Manco suggested that Guerrero should alternate in the lineup, which was defended by Cueva, who argued that the criticisms should be consistent before and after the matches. “He knows I have called him a thousand times. But look, I have nothing against him, but come on, brother, listen to me,” Cueva indicated referring to his relationship with Manco and the criticism towards Guerrero.
Opinions on Paolo Guerrero’s role continue to divide fans, highlighting the importance of maintaining a respectful, fact-based discussion in the realm of sports.
