Yeah right, it was your typical 'hold me back' bollox, just because he's a big bloke doesn't mean anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 You have to remember where he came from. The child of immigrant parents brought up in one of the poorest areas of Malmo he spent most of his early life having to fight his corner and deal with a lot of problems within his family. To his credit he came through it all and I suspect it`s made him the man he is today. If you read interviews with him he often refers to his childhood and accepts that he is a lucky man but he has had to work bloody hard to achieve what he has against all the odds. It`s worth reading the `early life` section of his Wiki page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider-manc Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 My favourite thing Zlatan ever did was take an advert out in the LA Times when he signed for LA Galaxy. A whole page with "Dear LA, you're welcome." at the top and his signature at the bottom. I imagine a lot of Americans who didnt know football thought " who the **** is this guy??"

Hahaha I'd not heard that one! I think the guy is just really funny. People will call it arrogance but I think he just plays on the media given persona. I think the fact he refers to himself in the 3rd person all the time is a dead giveaway that he is just taking the piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class Don't forget he followed it up with an injury time winner. They were 3-1 down when he came on and won 4-3. In his interview after the game "the fans wanted Zlatan, I gave them Zlatan."

marcofisher Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 Zlatan should aspire to work under LJ. His newfound interrogation techniques would really get the best out of the striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
