NANI WANTS TO PLAY FOR MOURINHO
Manchester United player Nani has revealed that he wants to play for José Mourinho at some stage in his career. Nani insists he is happy at United but his future has been the subject of speculation since he slipped down the Old Trafford pecking order.
Fit-again Antonio Valencia is ahead of Nani, Ashley Young is set to arrive from Aston Villa while manager Sir Alex Ferguson has also been heavily linked with Wesley Sneijder, Samir Nasri and Alexis Sanchez.
NANI DISAPPOINTED
Luis Nani has said that he is extremely disappointed at not making the player of the season list. The winger has been in scintillating form this season leading the Premier League’s assists chart with 18, scoring 10 himself as well as making various other important contributions to the team’s trophy winning aspirations.
Now the 24 year old winger, who was nominated for the young player version of the award, too has revealed his disappointment at having been overlooked saying:
“I think I have been doing well, so I am disappointed not to be there.
NANI CALLS FOR HAMMERS BEATING
Manchester United winger Nani has called upon his teammates to beat West Ham United convincingly. The Red Devils currently top the table from second placed Arsenal by five points, having played one more game than their nearest rivals.
Arsene Wenger's men will face struggling Blackburn in a game that many will expect them to claim maximum points from.
"Our visit to West Ham is the sort of situation that decides titles," said Nani.
NANI PRAISES SCHOLES
Manchester United winger Nani has praised Paul Scholes by saying that he is the best player he has ever seen. Luís Carlos Almeida da Cunha, commonly known as Nani is a Portuguese football player. He plays as a winger for Manchester United and the Portugal national team. Having made 41 appearances and scoring in 9 goals for Portugal makes Nani quite a well reputed personage. Making such an admiring compliment about Paul Scholes surely elevates Scholes’ status in the football arena.
NANI FIT TO FACE BIRMINGHAM CITY
Manchester United winger Nani is set to face Birmingham city after recovering sufficiently from an injury. The Portuguese winger was absent from Sunday's fixture against Sunderland owing to a hip injury, but Sir Alex Ferguson confirmed that Nani would be available for the tricky trip to the midlands. Midfielder Darren Fletcher's situation depends on his recovery from the cold he has been suffering for the past week, which also kept him out from the Boxing day fixture.
NANI REVEALS SECRET OF SUCCESS
Manchester United winger Nani has said that defensive improvements have led to his improvements. Nani admits heeding advice from United manager Sir Alex Ferguson about tracking back has made him a more dangerous player.
The Portuguese has learned as well that being successful with United is not all about camera-grabbing attacking play.
He revealed: "Sir Alex Ferguson explained to me the importance of defending well and said I would end up being more dangerous in attack as a result. It is the truth."
NANI WORRIED ABOUT ARSENAL THREAT
Manchester United winger Nani has said that he is worried about the form of Arsenal more than anything else. T“Arsenal are a bigger threat than Chelsea now,” Nani said ahead of Monday’s match against the Gunners. “Chelsea have lost a few games and drawn some and their confidence looks a bit low. But Arsenal have been winning and being top of the league gives you great confidence.
“Arsenal have been doing well. They are growing up in the way we are.”
NANI APOLOGISES TO RONALDO
The Portugal winger Nani unintentionally spoiled a great move by Ronaldo, which led to a goal being disallowed. Later he apologised. Ronaldo looked to have put Portugal ahead with a superb effort in the first half, after cleverly turning inside Gerard Piqué before scooping his shot over Iker Casillas.
The stunning effort was dropping into the net but Nani raced in from an offside position to head the ball in from point-blank range, leading to the goal being disallowed.
NANI EXPLAINS HIS FORM
Nani has put his recent form down to his confidence and not anything else. Along with Dimitar Berbatov, Nani has been one of United's best players this season, scoring twice and contributing six assists in five Premier League games.
NANI READY TO SHINE
Nani is ready to shine in Manchester United colours after the recent long-term injury to Antonio Valencia. Valencia is out for most of the campaign after breaking his ankle against Rangers on Tuesday.
It leaves Nani and Ryan Giggs as Manchester United's only wingers.
But Nani, 23, said: "Now I'm a bit older, I'm more experienced and have more confidence. This season is my fourth at the club and it really feels like home now. I feel sharp, strong and I hope I can help the team enjoy many great moments this season."
