Tennis Bastard

I'm wondering whether-

a) all football journalists (except the most hopeless ones) take Wimbledon fortnight off;

b) all football journalists double as a tennis journalist, so have more important things to do during Wimbledon

c) absolutely nothing worthwhile is happening in the (Manchester United related) world of football.

d) everyone involved with Man Utd loves Wimbledon and refuses to work this fortnight

Because I've scoured (yes, scoured) this morning and I've come up with three stories.  Maybe I've missed something, but I don't think so... And that's 3 stories in total.  Not three stories worth reading.

The first one is this, from The Sun, "Fergie Signs a Real Stunner" A story about how attractive De Gea's girlfriend is.  She's a Spanish popstar apparently.  The article does continue into a bit of profile of the more trivial aspects of De Gea's life:

His old school master at the Castilla School is Jose Luis Garcia who describes De Gea as an inspiration.

Garcia said: "David was a very, very good student.

"He came from a very good family background and always had a very positive attitude. He was with us from the age of four to 17.

"Academically he was very good, although not so much in English — he wasn't very good at that!

"But, of course, he was brilliant at all sports. He excelled at basketball and football. He had very big hands so it is no surprise to us he's a goalkeeper.

"As soon as I saw his hands I just knew he'd end up a keeper," we've all said it...

The Mirror has some quotes from Macheda, whose back from a loan spell at Sampdoria:

"Psychologically it was not easy because to go from United to Sampdoria and to fight to avoid the drop was a difficult situation," Macheda said to Sky Italia.

"I wanted to have an experience in Italy but now I want to remain in the Premier League"

And The Daily Star decide that the day after Nani announces he's looking forward to staying with us is the day to spread rubbish gossip about Juventus wanting to sign Nani for £26million.

But at least they're printing something... I suppose it's a no win situation, I criticise them for printing rubbish or I criticise them for not printing anything.... let's just get the new season started.... please....

...and I don't even like tennis...
