Can birthday-boy Nani make the grade at United?

Nani, who turns 23 today, needs to toughen up mentally if he wants to make the grade at United. When Nani broke into the Sporting CP first-team he was seen as the next big thing to come out of Portugal, after Cristiano Ronaldo that is. After his big move to Manchester United he has lived in the shadow of his more glorified countryman.

His start at new surroundings was good. He scored in the pre-season and it didn’t take very long to get on the score sheet in the Premier League, a beautiful 30 yard strike against Tottenham. Thanks to that and his trademark capoeira styled goal celebrations he quickly found a way into the Red Devis’ faithfuls hearts.

It was a good season with a 4 goal return from 41 appearances. He started his sophomore season at United well enough, but it quickly turned sour with the winger, who’s full name is Luís Carlos Almeida da Cunha, falling behind in the pecking order to his less fashionable team-mates. He improved on his goal tally with 6 goals, but in total ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
