How the £#%&! can you say he didn't angle for a move publicly? FFS

He could be infuriating at times but the good outweighed the bad astronomically. If he would have played to the whistle rather than throwing a strop on occasion, sorted the childish side of himself and a little more graft on the defensive side he'd be up there with Diego and Edson. The jammy @#%&! has still got time to do that tbf, just hope he's moved from Madrid by then.

Oh and those abs :swoon:

I hope Tevez's head fall off

Wayne is up there with Robbo, Paul Parker, Gary Pallister, Andy Cole and Mad Pat in my Man Crush stakes.

he's still a @#%&!

"okay."

''Okay.''

his face smiled up at me when i got handed 'shortlist' on yesterdays juorney into work.

i initally thought i won't £#%&!ing read that but in the end i did and i agree he said all the right things. him and wayne had a phenonmenal on pitch chemistry that brought me/us many many amazing moments.

he's bowed out with a bit of class, which is always nice to see.

unlike £#%&!ing 'animal' from the muppets who is a tosser.

Well said Ronnie

For the record, both inside and outside of the quotation marks is acceptable.

As with a lot of these things, it's traditionally a GB English (outside) versus US English (inside) trend but it's now a lot more fuzzy than that.

There's a whole argument that can be stated for either way. Maybe it should be left to personal choice and what format you're used to using without incorrect corrections being stated.

Real Madrid's most expensive acquisition, Cristiano Ronaldo, has opted to speak out in favour of former Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney, hailing the powerful Englishman's ability and attitude, adding that he would "die for the team".
The two players had an infamous confrontation at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, during an England and Portugal quarter-final. Ronaldo winked to his bench following Rooney's dismissal and became a notorious hate figure upon his initial return to the Premier League. It took strong man-management from Sir Alex Ferguson to calm the situation.

Ronaldo has now lauded the stocky striker, claiming Rooney to be the best in the division. “It is a league of amazing talent, but for me the stand-out player is Wayne Rooney,” he told The Sun.

“His ability is fantastic, but his attitude when he plays football is that he is willing to die for the team.”

Many commentators have spoken out over Manchester United's diminished chances of title retention after losing Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez, whose two year loan deal expired this week.

However, the World Player of the Year believes Ferguson's squad will triumph come May 2010.

“For me they will still win the Premier League next year and I hope for a long time to come,” he declared.

This is from the MEN pullout I believe ??

I was trying to read this over someone's shoulder on the tram earlier.

Anyone have a link to the full interview?

I was a right back in my younger days and due to an incident outside the cliff when I was 10/11 he will always have a part of my heart.
