I think BAE is the most honest footballer out there today. After his interview a few months back where he said he only played football for the money, he has once again launched on football's celebrity culture and branded players greedy, arrogant and two-faced.
Quotes by the man
"The whole problem with football players is that they really take themselves seriously."
"We kick a ball around and we earn 100,000, 200,000 or even 300,000 euros a week. We don't improve the world. It's not like we invented hot water. We just kick a ball."
"I prefer to support players like Deco, who has used his fame to go back to Brazil to help some charities. I also like players of temperament like Edgar Davids."
Oh yeah, its by the Sun.
They claim he also called Rooney "prostitute sha**er". ( I now like BAE a lot.)
