Yeah, he is just a poor mis-understood guy, and doesn't act like an arrogant twat
: You're a typical Man Utd fan, thinking the sun shines out of your players rear end. You weren't so defensive of Ronaldo when he was trying to leave. I distinctly remember all you guys saying what a piece of scum he was.
And yeah he is the
only sportsman
in the whole world who I would wish an injury on.
I don't think the 'sun shines out of his rear end' at all. And I never called Ronaldo scum when he was trying to leave! I'm just saying you know nothing of the man of the pitch, out of the public eye.

He has amazing talent. Yet he couldn't be like Giggs or Scholes, he acts like an arrogant tosser. His diving and play acting doesn't help. But yeah, I appreciate your view Phil, at least you're a true Manu Utd fan and are willing to admit his faults unlike others......
I never said he didn't have faults! I don't like his play acting and so on either, but like it or not, it's a part of him (and a great many other players as well). What I'm trying to get across to you is that you do not know the man off the pitch, so to wish such an injury on him is out of order. And no, I don't think he'll be like Giggs or Scholes either, he'll not stay at Utd for too much longer I wouldn't have thought. But, then again, there are very few Giggs and Scholes type players in the game, players who show career long loyalty to one club and they're getting fewer as time goes on.
I mean, I can't bloody stand Maradona, for example. But I'd never wish him such a long lasting physical injury...
And one other thing: Are you saying someone isn't a true fan if they can't admit someone's faults? I'd say more accurately, they're too much of a fan. If he played for Liverpool or someone, I wouldn't like him either (I would be able to appreciate his talent, as I can with Gerrard, Torres et al), but I still wouldn't wish such an injury on him.

While this might be a difficult thing to get your head around for fans of some other clubs, we'll stick up for our own, and while he's in that red shirt, he's our own.
Exactly! As all fans do, we stick up for our own players.
Anyway, to change the subject a bit: I'm glad Beckham's staying with AC Milan. The Galaxy is below him and he never should've gone there. I just hope they can engineer a permanent move after December. He's still got a lot to offer both for club football and for England, so he needs to play for a top team.
. But tonight I did actually have a worrying feeling. Fantastic result in a very tough game. Taylor should have been sent off (2 yellow card offences in about 5 seconds), but the way he made the mistake for the 2nd goal meant justice was done.
