AMEN TO THAT

Last updated : 03 April 2003 By Editor
Real Madrid defender Hierro was speaking at a press
conference yesterday and is sick of the talk of David
Beckham:

"I don't want to waste another moment talking about Beckham,

"I really don't like the subject and I don't think it's the
right moment to bring it up or discuss it.

"I think it's sad that we are talking about Beckham now and
(it) shows a lack of respect for the players we have here."

He also feels that Madrid are the favourites in the
Champions League:

"I think Real Madrid are always favourites, not just in this
game but in every game we play, although we respect
Manchester United.

"They are a great team and will make things very difficult
for us. They have a lot of very good players, not just
Beckham but others of a very high standard who are known
throughout Europe."
