Comments from Wayne Bridge, "Gus has revitalised my love for football after I was in the wilderness at Manchester City." and "He got me to focus and enjoy my football. He is a top-class manager both tactically and on the man-management side, one of the best I have worked with"

http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...rfire-manager-gus-poyets-prowess-8623045.html

On phone to Bridge:

Gus: I'm getting some really bad press at the moment, can you put in a good word for me?

Bridge: Sure what do you want me to say?

Gus: Just tell them that I am a top-class manager both tactically and on the man-management side, one of the best you have worked with.

I'm not a fan of Gus, but you don't actually think it would have played out like that, right? Gus wouldn't be that interested on the sort of thing one player came out with.

Who knows, he was pretty desperate at the time and Bridge would have been one of the only players Gus could legally speak to.

In any case it wouldn't have been in Bridge's interest to say anything controversial so his statement was a safe one. He is also set to give evidence in Kazim-Richards’ defence along with Gus.

This man still produces 15 page threads from NSC, that tells you all you need to know about his impact. He probably won't be coming though, so leave this alone!

Still without a club / free agent.

Surprised that is all.

But he was clearly fit all of last season and only didn't play every game because of Gus of the Grinch, why would he retire?

No more space on our treatment table at the moment surely?

Though having said that I would have already signed him if I was running the shop.
