Nani has been a flop ever since he has done jack all. Few neat little tricks that tend to go nowhere. Think flop is kind really...

I can't believe David Moyes' pitch side dressing down of Jesper Blomqvist doesn't get a mention!!!!? Not long into his job and the swedish midget loses it after being subbed, kicks the back of the row of seats in front of him (Moyes' happended to be sitting near one of them!) and then got took down like a naughty school boy!!! Moyes showed everyone in no uncertain terms that he was going to struggle to deal with prem prima donna's in his new role!!! Great TV!!

Excellent compilation. Amuses me to think that at a grass-root level we emphasize teamwork and that it is what benefits the TEAM that supersedes all. Yet what we are looking at here is a case of extremely talented (apart from Martins!!), but extremely whiny players who need to get their act right and realize they are setting an example for children. Everyone seems to attack the Chelsea players for the way they behaved after the Barca match, but surely this is as bad, if not worse? This not only shows disrespect to the game but to a player's own TEAMMATES and MANAGER! Just amazes me how grown men can act so callus.

Don't see why everybody's been talking about this one. Whether it's a penalty, free kick or throw in that he doesn't win, Ronaldo sulks, pouts and looks so hard done by. Can't imagine what's going through their tiny minds some times. Would love to see how these 'gifted individuals' would cope in the real world, doing a real job. Grow up.

What about Oba's antics earlier this season under Joe Kinnear? They were far more extreme then the Birmingham incident! I can't recall what game it was for, or who came in for him, but Oba was shocked to be coming off, tore off the tape on both wrists, throwing them to the ground, and proceeded to walk right by the manager, straight into the dressing room, not to be seen for the rest of the game. I could be mistaken, but NUFC lost that game, as we have several others this season.

Has anyone noticed that all of these 'strops' have occured in the last few years? It wouldn't have happened in my day I tell ya!

Surely Craig Bellamy deserves a mention for his reaction to being substituted by Graeme Sounness?
