yes I do, I never denied it. I hate mercenaries like Morrison and Butler. But that has nothing to do with the fact that I think the guy is over rated. If Rivaldo had found an Irish great grandmother or something 10 years ago after professing his love for brazil, I wouldn't be too happy to see him in green. Put simply- I dislike the guy on all levels- as a footballer and as a human being.

And you don't feel there's just the slim possibility it's impairing your judgement? Saying our striker with our best strike rate shouldn't even make our squad and is inferior to Gary Doherty?

if i had that penny he was aiming for every time he stood at left back and sent a long searching pass off the outside of his foot over the left hand sideline i'd be a wealthy man. :D
