I find this whole transfer merry-go-round nonsense very
childish personally. It's hardly a professional way to do
business is it ?
When you are the only kid in the playground with a packet of
sweets, then fair enough, chances are you will be badgered to
share them out. Then you grow up, apparently, and the rules
change. You ask, you get turned down, you retreat.
The way Real Madrid have constantly badgered and annoyed
United over the Ronaldo business does remind me of a spoilt
brat who can't get his own way !!
Madrid were annoying the hell out of Fergie too. I imagine he
has enough to deal with now the new season is just around the
corner. This is the last thing he needs to disrupt his plans.
Annoyed or not though, he has no right to declare publicly that
he has all but signed Berbatov, that he fully expects the deal to go through. He has infuriated the
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy (pictured):
"It is unbelievably hypocritical given his comments in respect of Cristiano
Ronaldo and Real Madrid," Levy said.
"The behaviour of both clubs has been disgraceful. We told both clubs very early
on that we had no interest in selling Robbie or Dimitar, respectively, and that they
should refrain from pursuing the player.
"Both clubs arrogantly chose to ignore this request and we now have evidence that
both clubs have systematically been working to prise the players away from us,
outside of Premier League rules of conduct."
"Today's public comments by Manchester United's manager, announcing that he
has made an offer for Dimitar and is confident that the deal will go through with
time working in their favour, is a blatant example of sheer arrogance and
interference with one of our players.
"It is also probably one of the worst offences by any manager in the Premier
League to date
"As a result, we have today made an official complaint to the Premier League
about the conduct of Manchester United.
"Benitez made similar comments in respect of Robbie recently and we made an
official complaint to the Premier League about the conduct of Liverpool earlier
this week.
"I have absolutely no wish to sell either player and to date we have not accepted
any offer for either."
The Premier League confirmed they had received Tottenham's official complaints
in relation to breaches of the Premier League rules K3 and K8.
Having said that I don't really see why there is such a big fuss over this ... Fergie said he fully
expects him to become a United player - so what ? It's not against the rules but it is lacking in
good manners.
Come on boys, enough is enough. This is all just childish and unprofessional !!!
