Most of the very best players in the game are true winners who'd hate their guts tolose any game never mind trophy. That attitude is what separates top players from rest.
Oh, and manager who said that is either Fat Sam, Elephant man or McCarthy. Fucking loser thing to say in professional football.
Any guesses on identity of footballer? Judging by how he writes he has had decent formal education and is close to/over 30.

Does he say he has though; is he talking about himself or in general ?
He mentions two moves where he moved 'for money' once earlier & once later in his career, & the big mistake being moving in the 1st place. Barton left just before Frank came in.
