Ben Thatcher - I will never play for Manchester United!

[ricflairandy]

That to me is the equivalent of the skysports story today about arteta.

 

Whats next ? "Steve Bruce - I will never manage brazil!"

[Gerry]

hehe

 

Gave me a chuckle as well. Arteta goes on and about "all the speculation is nonsense". What bloody speculation? Has he been linked with us at all?

LOL @ Xabi for suggesting Arteta could play for Spain one day. Amazed he could say that with a straight face.

If Arteta signed for Man U he'd be in the Spain squad the following week

Dont get me wrong , i rate him very highly for that standard of football. In a simlar way to the way i rate Steve Bruce very highly as a manager for that standard of football.

Arteta is a good player in a very good vein of form.

No he wouldn't, Sven doesn't manage Spain

[Herbie von Smalls]

ben thatcher said that?

 

that's got to be the biggest bombshell dropped since andy 'andrew' cole's shock decision to retire from international football.
