I don't give a rats *** if Sterling has a god **** aircraft carrier tatooed on one leg and ICBM on the other.
This entire stupid idea where we expect footballers to be rolemodels needs to die in the fire. If for no other reason, it's because most of them are actually worst ******* rolemodels imaginable.
I would know, because certain Ryan Giggs was often considered to be a role model for people in my generation of fans.
Yeah, remember that ****? Fantastic player, extremely professional, legendary work ethic, well deserved reputation for being a rare gentleman on the pitch because he barely had bookings, good looking fella, did some charity work, seemed smart for a footballer and run some businesses on the side, what's not to like? If I'm not mistaken he was on a shortlist to be called Sir Ryan Giggs at some point.
Funny how much of a twist that story took.
