That's what a man would do.

But, fair enough, for those who don't quite measure up to being men it must be nice when Man Utd come calling. You're going to get a few honours there no doubt.

Yet he didn't go to Utd, did he? He abandoned a starting role at a club that had run very close to a serious challenge on several occasions and this was after he showed us what he can actually do for half a season and then went to sleep for the rest. He spurned the chance to go to the club that offers the greatest chance of those honours he claims he wants and he took the highest offer, even though he must have known he'd become a squad player in the process and spend time on the bench.

So what can we conclude based on his actions? Firstly, in real terms he has no ambition. If he had huge ambition he would have stayed with us. If he had moderate ambition he would have gone to Utd, he'd have confirmed he lacked the balls for the big fight but still made a sensible choice based on his stated reason for leaving. Second, he's a money grabbing greedy cunt who has zero loyalty. When he said the fans disrespected him, of course they did. He'd rewarded fans that pay through the nose so he can live a fantasy lifestyle by providing half a season of performance. Then he claimed he wanted to challenge for honours so was moving. What the hell did he think we were all paying him to do? Grace us with his mere presence? So the fans rightly said, what a greedy, disloyal and ungrateful cunt. The fans were right, he was wrong. He's the one who wasn't man enough to face the challenge. He's the one who turned Utd down so he could get paid big bucks to sit on the bench. He's the symptom of a game filled with greedy little pricks who have long since forgotten what football and teamwork and giving it back to the fans is all about.

So Na$ri is not right. He's 100% wrong. And anyone who "understands" him may well understand what football has become but they have no fucking clue about what football ought to be and once was.

Na$ri is a cunt. End of.
With the position you hold on the Board and lack of ambition....this post makes no sense. It's a contradiction. If the fans can see that this club needs a serious turn around, then why can't the players? Why in the world would he sign on for another 2-4 years when he can see we're a selling club? If we go by what you say about the Board, a player would be crazy to commit his future to such a regime, especially when a club looking to build a legacy comes calling.

Double standard by fans. We question the direction of this club on here all the time but for the players, you expect them to shut up and be loyal. Who are they being loyal to exactly? If you're saying we're run by greedy money men in it to make a quick buck then why should he feel obligated to stay here and accept a new contract for lower wages? He chose not to sign a new contract and judging from his last performance for us, he'd have played to the best of his ability. He could have honoured his contract and walked at the end of it. You can't ask much else from a player. He wasn't kicking up a stink in the press, he didn't go on strike, just saw that this club wasn't moving in the right direction and judging from our league position and performances, he's justified.

When it comes to football, it's like all intelligence goes out the window. People ask for standards on issues they themselves would struggle to live up to.
