    You're probably right. I guess I was giving him the benefit of the doubt seeing as there was an apology in there.

    Dear Angel di Maria,

    Regardless of the fact that your first choice on leaving Real Madrid was PSG, the fact was that you signed to play for Manchester United. You had the opportunity to play a key part in the resurgance of one of the world's biggest clubs, to become a hero to the fans who were paying to see your talent on the pitch.

    Instead you sulked, moped and schemed behind the management's back, agitating for a move away and worse still, trying to unsettle other young players in the side.

    You simply gave up trying, and for that, Manchester United fans around the globe hold you in contempt.

    You undoubtedly have talent, but you have no spine.

    The Fans

    I don't think we should be signing Argies...Veron, Tevez, Di Maria...the North West doesn't agree with them. They need to get out to the clubs and shag a few birds. Mancunian women know how to please a man!

    Rojo did it and he still seems happy enough. His wife's a bit pissed off mind.

    Giggsy could advise them on where to go and who to do.

    Not often have we had players who have given up trying to play. At least most of the failures have tried.

    In a way we are lucky to get £45m. That was his value when we bought him (£60m - 25% United premium). he started well enough but something happened afterwards. May well remain a mystery but his head was totally gone and he had no stomach for it.

    He got whacked a couple of times. He didn't like the physical stuff.

    The robbery excuse was bullshit. The guy's from a poor Argentinian family, I doubt the area he grew up in was like Beverley Hills!

    He just didn't like the PL, it was too tough for him.

    He obviously wanted PSG from the start but used you as a stop gap (and got a very good signing on fee in the process). Class player but a complete arsehole as well.

    I liked Heinze, thought he had a good 18 months but then got injured. Could have been a top LB for us otherwise.

    Their defenders seem to take to the league a lot better than most of their forwards.

    Tevez was a good player for you though?

    One for each point we took from you last year maybe :)

    I thought so. Wasnt prolific but scored some timely goals and was world class. His movement and ability to pull defenders all over the place as a result was second to none.

    My nephew used to always say the same thing about him "what's the point of a striker who can't shoot" and he was right at the time. Think he got some new boots when he left us.

    Owen was. Valencia had an awful season as number 7. He didnt quit though, he just gave up the number.

    Tried to move to Liverpool....

    About as big a **** you can get for a United player tbh.... Right up until kettle face arrived.

    And no, teves wasnt a good player for us. He once scored 5 leagues goals on a season but boy did he run around pointlessly. To be fair he was actually good as part of our attacking unit his first year, its when he decided he shouldnt have any competition and began his long reign of sulking that things went wrong.
