requested a move to the French club:
"There were contacts made which were at the player's
request, yes. But we're going to need many favourable
circumstances for it to come off. Finding an agreement seems
to be rather difficult and we're not there yet."
Meanwhile Robert Pires has stuck his two pennies worth in:
"There must have been an argument between Fabien and
Ferguson," Pires told the News of the World.
"For Ferguson to subject him to travelling for nothing would
be a humiliation after all Fabien has done for United. It's
a trick situation and, knowing Fabien he will have done some
straight talking.
"They must have had an argument."
Pires apparently went on to confirm that the Pope is indeed
a Catholic and that Bears sometimes shit in the woods.
