Tubbyson can leave if he wants to. He is a great talent when he is fit but not one who cannot be replaced.

Misquote.

As a United fan, it's disappointing to read this. Whenever I've seen him play he does show glimpses of great potential. He's seems to be exactly the kind of player we need... The problem is however, whenever he puts a couple of decent performances together, he ends up getting injured so he hasn't been able to do it consistently. It'll be a shame if he leaves...

This is an oddly familiar sentiment from South American footballers... We've seen it so many times when the lesser stars of Brazil and Argentina aren't getting it all their way they just want to give up and go home. Read Tevez, Robinho, Coloccini... serious talent, no work ethic. I hope he has been poorly translated but I doubt it...

@HarryBoulton if Anderson is like Gazza then he's suffering from life threatening mental illness.

I've just got this image of all the other players leaving Carrington each day, whilst Anderson is stuck in Fergie's office banging on the windows desperately asking them to help him escape.

On his Instagram he wrote he was misquoted and is happy in Manchester. Case closed.

He's got a lot of potential but doesn't seem like he's willing to do the work to reach it. I wouldn't mind if he was shown the door this summer and we replaced him with someone willing to put in the effort. Shame really though, he could be really good.

Mike_Christie (Manchester United) says...

That's it for me. I've always been a bit of an Anderson fan, hoped that if he could get fit and stay fit that he'd be quite a handy player. However, if that's an accurate portrayal of his attitude it just a) makes me hope we can shift him on in the summer and b) despair a little more that we didn't give Pogba a fair crack of the whip.

Been waiting for Anderson to finally show some consistency for several years now. Comments like this show it will never happen. Get rid, buy someone that actually wants to try and make it in the first team. Unfortunately most young midfield playmaker talents have been snapped up already (Gourcuff, Oscar, Pastore et al). Nothing that can't be rectified with some 20m though..

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!
