And neither do I.
No, of course you don't.
And neither do I.
Cleverley is more Djemba Djemba or Kleberson than Robson or Keane.
That will be Kleberson who won the World Cup with Brazil in 2002 and who was man of the match in the final, yes?
He was poor at United, but it happens. Very different footballing culture for a South American coming to England and the ones who have acclimatised and made it have tended to play elsewhere in Europe first, which Kleberson hadn't.
The petition is probably down to the injustice that Cleverley, who has shown he's not good enough as this level & isn't getting much game time at his club, continues to make the England squad while in-form players like Adam Johnson & even Tom Huddlestone are overlooked. If Huddlestone & Cleverley swapped clubs, I think we all know it wouldn't be Cleverley in the England squad
I would compare him to Kieran Richardson as a player who won a few England caps early on his career while trying to break through at United, before ending up having a decent career at lower end Premier League clubs as Richardson has with Sunderland and Fulham.
