I second that. I hope he doesn't feel disheartened. Key player for us and really hard to replace.

He did well in possession, didn't commit silly fouls and made an opportunity for himself on his weaker foot even though it wasn't the best of shots.. but then again we hardly had any shots at all. Decent appearance off the bench.
Why do people bump threads of players who have a bad game or are not involved? Nani has been one of our best players this season, in fact he has been voted by our very own players as THE BEST player this season and if he was English or British or played for the country he played in at 19 (in this case England) then he would most likely have been PFA player or YpFA of the year. That's coming from someone on here who's English and actually wants England to do well., LOL.
Nani has had a rough time since Valencia has come back as he's been moved around but also the work rate or options from Antonio, IE. RB position has meant he has been second choice, plus the form and type of game of Park. Nani is awesome, one of the most technically players we have. Love to watch him play.
Lets not be down on him let we was when he came on late in a game we were already lacking options in. Valencia and Hernandez also look out of it tonight but through no fault of their own really. Support them, all of them great players.

I'm not down on him. I'm worried he might be mad he didn't start and agitate for a move.
Nani is not an idiot. He would be more upset about not winning then not starting. He knows why Valencia was picked over him and its not because he's better going forward.
MOTM by some distance today, Portugal vs Norway
He was their best player in the Ullevaal match as well... something you'd not have gathered at all from the recap by Viasat.
True that, pathetic coverage. Pre-game: Wow! We're up against the (second) best player in the World we're doooooooooooomed!!!!! Post-game: Hey, Ron wasn't all that, Høgli MOTM!!!!
So basically it was 11 against 1 and we're quite happy to only lose by a goal. Yeah!

To be fair the Danes had a lot more clear chances against them than we did, and we might even have nicked a goal or two if we were a bit sharper going forward. And Høgli was tremendous in how deal with whatever winger they threw at him.
No shame in our campaign yet, and we might well have just displayed that we have the stability and structure to make us more than the sum of our parts, possibly well enough to get us to our first championship in 12 years. I'm not too disappointed.

Nah, fo shizzle. If you ask me Drillo is the second best manager out there. And I mean that.
Sheeeeeeit, I even think Fergie could've benefitted from a consult prior to May 28th.
O wellz.
To Nani! Hope he doesn't lose his stones due to being roughed up when we get to the business end next season. His incredible reaction time and close technique means that he'll outsmart the defenders 9/10 times, not to mention that his crossing is ace when on song. If he could do what he did in Valencia's absence on the left wing, then we're going to be a far bigger nuisance going forward next season.
You know him personally, then?
he's on only 70,000??
Nani again providing the magic from the RW.
No idea why Ron and Nani didn't change sides occasionally today. Nani was tearing Riise a new one while Ronaldo was kept quiet by Tom fecking Høgli! (Probably because Nani was causing sufficient damage for Portugal not to need Ron's contribution.)
his best position without a doubt.
and he even offers a better goal threat coming inside on his left foot these days..
Watched this with some Portuguese last night.
Can't believe they've still got Helder Postiga up front!
I know he scored, but in general he's shite. Imagine if Portugal could produce just one top striker. A front three to rival anything.

I think Ronaldo's gone backwards when it comes to wing play. He doesn't seem able to get past his man that often or effectively any more. Probably down to him focussing on bulk, losing a bit of pace in the process, and trying to break all manner of goal scoring records.
I reckon portugal may do well to find another winger and ship ronnie up front to do the damage. Who know's in years to come this new winger may be bebe
Yeh, Ronaldo's seriously regressed in that aspect. It's been so long now since he's been good at that part of his game that I'm not sure he has it in him anymore.
Really, it seems that he's moulded his game in order to get the most amount of glory (goals), but has now either lost the ability to dribble, or lost the will. It's working, but it's a shame for him that he's lost that whilst being born into this generation. He who must not be named just has so much more overall impact on the pitch, and that is ultimately why Ronaldo will probably never be as good. Very much a rich man's Torres though (not this imposter we're seeing for Chelsea, currently), which isn't bad....
Great to hear that Nani had a great game. Didn't catch the game, but his form for Portugal is generally excellent. They'd have one hell of a unit up top if they produced another winger or forward. How that country must be crying out for another Eusebio...

I just came across that crap by Alexander Netherton @ Soccernet. I'm not even gonna give him the satisfaction of a direct link to it. It's yet another personal attack on Nani and pure ignorance of his importance to us. So, Nani's a toxic influence, has poor decision making and we must get rid? It feels just like groundhog day.
If his name sounds familiar, it's because he has a history of writing bollocks about our club and players. Just like this:

Jesus wtf?
Abu twat
There are some terrible bloggers about. The Bleacher Report is the latest culprit for terrible articles. There was one recently about 'United target' Lloris apparently staying at Lille for another season.
There have been rumours from other sources, though. If he doesn't get enough playing time in the upcoming season, I can see him looking for a move. He's 25 and hugely talented, I don't think he's too about his situation. 
What the hell are you on about now?There have been rumours from other sources, though. If he doesn't get enough playing time in the upcoming season, I can see him looking for a move. He's 25 and hugely talented, I don't think he's too about his situation.
Funnily enough, I kinda agree with much of that article...except the bits about United && Nani; and I'm not even being biased. In particular, the stuff about Thierry Henry is true enough, I feel.
Why the hell wouldn't he?There have been rumours from other sources, though. If he doesn't get enough playing time in the upcoming season, I can see him looking for a move. He's 25 and hugely talented, I don't think he's too about his situation.
feck sake, believe it or not he still played a lot of games in the last 2 months of the season. People just seem blinded by the fact that he didn't play the Chelsea games or the CL final. And rightly so because his form had dropped since the Carragher tackle.
Nani will get a lot of game time next season. He's our best winger, one of the PL's best players and one of Europe's best wingers. He won't be off, and certainly not for the measly prices that have been speculated.
I'm not sure he's necessarily ABU but he's definitely a twat. Claiming that Barcelona selling Samuel Eto'o helped Spain win the World Cup is absolutely ridiculous.
Why do people think Nani is a pussy? He never shirks a challenge and usually gets stuck in. I know he can exaggerate injury a bit but his strength on the ball shouldn't really be questioned.
That article is shit, not sure what Nani has to do to convince some people.

He's really bulked up and looks a powerhouse these days. Impressed me a lot more this season, how he shirked off tackles that would have brought him down in the past, and showed a bit more desire to reach the ball regardless, or get back up.
Nani is another one who doesn't get the plaudits he deserves. He's a phenomenal talent and will go on to be a world beater I'm sure of it. The rate of progression is insane as well, especially when playing without the whole team in sync, with Rooney back to arguably his greatest form, Hernandez as well and a consistent winger on the other side, I can't wait to see how he starts next season.

"That is why Nani, with defects of indecision and ego, is toxic to Manchester United. Whether Ashley Young is a suitable replacement is academic, because he can't be any worse." ...
I think carra's tackle caught up with Nani and how hard he's had to work this season and it slowed him down towards the end of the season. Good rest and off season is what he needs.
Definitely, the quality and consistency he was showing prior to that was huge, and I don't think Valencia's return had a single thing to do with it.
"I am happy at Manchester United" - Nani
By Orlando Vieira
On holiday in Madeira, where this afternoon watching the Athletic Union, which decides to surrender the title of champion 2. Division, assured that Nani is happy at Manchester United, devaluing the news that point to the interest of Juventus.
Accompanied by his girlfriend and family, the Portuguese international was feeling Field Adelino Rodrigues, Funchal, stage of the game between the Madeira and Athletic Union, which defines the champion 2. Division.
The fact that his cousin Carlitos play at Atletico justified the presence of Nani, that the same day that news broke in Italy on the progress of Juventus on their hiring.
Nani, prompted by BALL, assured that he is happy at Manchester United.

What I find amazing is that some folks actually think Nani is egocentric. I wonder where they get the idea from
The statue of himself in his home?

Walking out last every single time he starts. A Ronaldo trait.
Bit of a gimp in that aspect.
Most of the crap written in the 'quality' press is a heap of shit let alone the wacko blog stuff. No one listens any more since the whole internet is mostly jabbering noise. Thank god for the caf - an oasis of sanity in a lunatic asylum.
