A question i'd like to ask other Blues...
Beyond the immature bollocks like 'he looks dead fat, huh huh' (he's been unable to train for nine months), or 'my mates mates mate saw him pissed up in Tiger Lounge' or whatever shitty bars the kids go in nowadays, how many people have actually seen him WITH THEIR OWN EYES regularly outrageously drunk anywhere? Not a case of your pal saying he has, or colleague, or anyone else's word you might trust. How many times have YOU yourself seen him in a spot of bother?
The answer, of course, will be none, and in the case that he's occasionally chosen to go out and socialise, something which he's well within his rights to do, how many times have we seen photographs or heard stories of Elano, Richards, Jo, Robinho, several others, out, relaxing and having a few drinks? Many.
Show the lad a bit of support, ffs. If he's injured and low then he'll need all the support he can get. If there's any truth to the more scurrilous rumours then we owe him even more support.
