You should trust Manu, after all this years, that when the season starts, he will be ready. And if anyone has achieved an extra credit, is him.
Good news, but damn thats harsh, a letter on his birthday. Could've called him
Exactly.Quote:

Embarrassed to be a Spurs fan right now. Hope Manu knows that not all spurs fan support this.
Last chance to play for his NT and he's robbed. Just shameful.
Lol some idiots don´t remember this

Fuck the NT team, Manu got away that time, now its FO revenge time.
The only thing that you could say is somewhat bitchmade is the Spurs leaking out (and make no mistake, for an organization shrouded in secrecy, this is no accident) that info before Gino getting the letter and the news... especially on his birthday, tbh...
Yeah, exactly wrong...Quote:

Manu is such a huge competitor.
He may be upset at first but he will realize that his job and livelihood is more important.
Once he eventually retires he can do whatever he wants.
Dont worry, he is well aware of crappy fans...Quote:

By bitching and wanting him to play for argentina/be able to make his own choice on whether he plays, you're being inherently disloyal to the Spurs.Quote:

You have no idea how the world works. The right hand washes the left hand EVERY DAY all around the world. He's played 6 times for Argentina, 2002,2004,2006,2008,2010,2012. Maybe he's done with it, but is taking pressure at home to play. The Spurs would ABSOLUTELY take the role of the heavy if Manu needed it to save face at home.Quote:

A player donning colors for his National team looks noble, but he's just a pain in the ass once the injuries start kicking in and you see him slumping through the season.Quote:
